A Non Characteristic Redheart Mare….

When looking to buy an Appaloosa, there are many factors to consider. To breed Appaloosas, they need to be registered. We like to triple register our horses with the British Appaloosa Society, the Appaloosa Horse Club, and Appaloosa Horse Club UK. It takes time, the basic’s are quality ID photographs, DNA, specific clear genetics, and […]

British Appaloosa Society Northern Show 2017

I usually pride myself on organisation and presentation but this weekend I was quite cross with myself…..Arriving at the show late, without my 2017 “right hand” Amelie, taking two horses that are kept well apart from each other due to a two-year-old hormonal colt and a three-year-old filly who seems to spend every day in season….

They have created a lovely bond and today we were at the ApHC UK Spring Show held at Merrist Woods Equestrian Centre. With Myka and DRF Patahas Redheart (Blu) on the lorry, we set off […]

A Trial Run…..

It’s easy to teach a person if they want to learn….meet Amelie, a young horse enthusiast who has helped us behind the scenes at the shows over the past year. She is a confident young lady and owns her own horse, so we are three-quarters of the way to in hand performance. In the ring it’s […]
