Here is a very special girl that we absolutely adore! She was born and raised on our family’s farm. Ember is as sweet as can be and as cute as a button. She is a pure bread section A welsh pony out of imported stock. She will mature at 12.2hh. Ember is 4 years old. She is a pretty chestnut with a white blaze. Ember is a joy to ride and currently working in our lesson program. The kiddos love riding her and is a favorite for many of our students. Ember has a nice quiet walk, a floaty flat kneed trot, and the most delightful canter. She knows both her leads and has been very lightly started over fences. She rides a snaffle bit and is soft in the mouth and has great breaks! Ember has great ground manners and you can catch her anywhere in the field. We think Ember would make an excellent small hunter pony. In fact, many of her siblings have had very successful careers as hunters on the MHJA and USEF circuits. She would also make a great addition to any lesson program or family pony!

He stands nice for grooming, tacking, and mounting. He walks, trots, canters, and even drives! John is a very brave horse. He will trail ride all day and in any direction, you point him in! He moves very easily off of seat and leg pressure. He comes equipped with excellent transitions and the breaks are good! He’s light on his feet while having sturdy conformation.

Meet Jolene. They say you can’t beat the ride of a good mule and we have found that to be true in the case of Jolene. This Molly mule stands 15hh at 8 years old. She is as pretty as a picture in a magazine with a demeanor to match. Jolene will steal your heart at first glance. Jolene has a beautiful candy apple red coat color. She is a stout made girl with great bone structure, making her a great size for most people and most jobs. Jolene just adores people, she’s easy to catch, stands to be groomed, saddled, clipped, and mounted. She has started her liberty training and loves to learn. You won’t find a mule with a personality more like a dog than Jolene. Under-saddle Jolene is just fantastic, she has an easy walk, a smooth jog, and can lope a circle in the palm of your hand. Her mouth is very soft, we generally ride her in a broken snaffle bit. She will work off of your seat/leg and body movement. We have ridden her to town, in traffic, around crowds and she enjoys all the attention. We have had her on numerous trail rides and camping trips. There’s no brush too thick, no hills too steep and no creek too deep for her. She will safely take you where you want to go. She rides English, western and even bareback. She’s also worked around many dogs and has no issues with them. Jolene has been used to pasture rope cattle and pony racehorses to the track. We have had her in different obstacle classes and she’s extremely handy. She can jump from a halt or you can ride her around a course of hunter fences. When you saddle her up English, she is extremely elegant and will navigate a course better than most horses. She is hands down the coolest, most well trained and rideable mule I have ever owned. I can write about her all day but I’m going to stop here and let you enjoy the video. If you love long ears, a great demeanor, and an easy ride you have meet your girl!

She’s been on many hunting trips and she will carry the biggest riders thru the roughest terrain without missing a beat. She’s seen the mountains and rivers of Montana, Utah, Wyoming, the great lakes, deep woods, open fields, back roads and more sunrises and sunsets than I can count.
