ding the gradual starting methods and consistent handling of youngsters to produce calm and willing performance horses and ponies. Our goal is to provide top quality mounts with the mind and athletic ability to achieve your dreams. Veterinarians Mary and Tom Ellenberger have been breeding horses and ponies since 2008. They are involved in all aspects of the care and upbringing of Maefield’s horses and ponies, in partnership with a team of professional horse trainers and equine veterinarians. We have foals and young stock started under saddle for sale, and experienced hunter ponies for sale or lease. PM us or call 314-330-0726 to schedule a visit.

DEAR TOOTH FAIRY: Please visit Maefield Farm tonight. We have a very good filly who had her wolf teeth removed today. She is looking for treats.

Wolf teeth are vestigial premolars (distinct from canine teeth) that serve no known purpose, and can interfere with the bit. We routinely remove them once they erupt, usually when the horse is 1-2 years old and well before they are started under saddle. You can see the variation in size/development of these wolf teeth from the left and right sides of her upper cheek teeth.

Had fun at the KWPN - NA keuring (inspection) at Norwegian Hill Farm in Wisconsin yesterday.

Our 2025 Dutch c**t Vander Ijs M (Iceman de Muze x Imalottie SPF) received the high point jumper award. We were pleased that our "Ice Boy" was well-behaved.

Many thanks to our trainer, Hope Saldana, for her assistance and all her work preparing Imalottie and Ice for this inspection. And a big thank-you to DeAnna Stueve Greulich for hosting us at her beautiful farm and for her generous hospitality.

Vander Ijs ("Ice") celebrates his one month birthday today. This handsome c**t by Iceman de Muze is built for jumping, and radiates the intelligence of his dam, Imalottie SPF (Zavall-Goodtimes). He is perceptive and outgoing towards the horses and humans in his orbit.

An exciting day mowing pastures to promote growth and control weeds before hot weather sets in. We're off to a good start this year. Hope there's more rain in store to get us through the dog days of summer.

The sweetest foal of 2025 has to be jet black Hanoverian filly Diva. She was born 28 Mar. Sired by Dubarry and out of Dulcinea GKF. Her full brother, Divinely Dupre, is starting under saddle at present. We expect Diva to become a superb dressage mare.

Our Zavall - Goodtimes mare, Imalottie SPF, has outdone herself with this big c**t by Iceman de Muze. Born last night, he stood up and checked all the boxes, started nursing, and captured our hearts with his cuteness. He needs a name starting with the letter "V."

Who needs a strapping c**t by Sarkozy? Baby is stretching his legs during his first excursion outside at less than 2 days old. First time mom Desiderata (Dacaprio - Wolkenstein II) has a great work ethic and is taking motherhood in stride.

Our pretty filly Birdie (Uberlottie M) has outgrown the "baby" halters and moved into the one she will wear for her keuring in September. Looking forward to seeing DeAnna Stueve Greulich and the wonderful folks at Norwegian Hill Farm for this fun and educational event.

Birdie is by Victor E (Indoctro - Nimmerdor) and out of our Lottie line mare Imalottie SPF ster PROK (Zavall - Goodtimes). Great to see those super bloodlines right before our eyes!

The beautiful and talented Ottumwa M, a favorite foal of Maefield Farm, is wowing them in California. Super smart and amazingly calm, five-year-old "Tumi" is a model of composure for stablemates twice her age.

Ottumwa's 2019 keuring photo with her beautiful dam, Zorphee keur, represents one of our treasured moments. Tumi was awarded Champion Jumper Foal in the US by KWPN - NA for her top score in foal keuring. She was and is something special!

Meals on wheels. Got restocked on hay this weekend. The brome grass is thick. A wet July has caused delays in putting up hay, but the growth conditions were good and it has good leaf content. We are fortunate to have so much good hay produced locally. We really appreciate our "hay guys."
