The barn I train out of in Byron MN has a brand new outdoor arena! It's bigger than a regulation dressage ring and we can accommodate haul in lessons! Day and overnight stalls available. Let me know if you want to come learn!

12 year old paint mare for sale

14.1hh with large body.

Penny has experience with Western and English riding. She is not spooky but is particular about how she is ridden so not ideal for a beginner (would be fine if being led). Penny is sound but needs some maintenance to stay comfortable. She is registered Pinto.

Penny lives in a mixed herd barefoot and fine in stall, for farrier, vet, clippers, etc.

Penny could make a nice trail horse, lead line horse, pasture pet with occasional riding, or a nice riding horse for a less ambitious rider (i.e. not going to jump, barrel race, or do dressage above training level). She can do lateral work, kids can stand up on her or ride double, backwards, or upside down.

Otter Creek Dressage Fest is done and there were definitely highs and lows! After being eliminated in our first test for some behavior issues, Pan improved and now has a good start at 2nd level.

3 year old Dwayne did his first show and lived up to his name ("The Rock")- he was the perfect baby horse and scored between 71-75% while getting some valuable exposure to all things horse show.

Amber and Jazz survived their first show and demonstrated serious resilience after some excitement in the warm up ring.

We were sad that Caitlin Lake and Sven couldn't compete with us (due to an abscess) but thanks Caitlin for coming anyways and being a huge help!

The community we have in the Dressage world around here is so wonderful- there's a friendly face everywhere you turn and so much support between barns. I am grateful to be a part of this.

Thanks Nexus Saddlery for supplying Panda with saddles as he develops, Midwest Saddlery for helping Dwayne with a last minute saddle change, and Suzy FitzSimmons for breeding and raising such cool horses! The future is bright!

This is what you're supposed to do with a hay net, right?

I have spent several months taking another equine nutrition class - and am now certified as a level 3 Equine Nutrition Advisor with Legacy Equine Nutrition. This course was especially great as we read and dissected many scientific articles related horse nutrition. We had 2 PhD Equine Nutritionist teachers and a group of super smart students to learn with.

Let me know if I can help you better feed your horse! I do virtual consultations or can come to you if you aren't too far away. I can help you figure out if you are feeding an appropriate grain, supplements, or hay for what your horse needs. I won't sell you anything other than information/education.

Panda and I have done a couple shows this summer and are having a blast at 1st level. He is so much fun to show- I feel so lucky to have him. Today we scored over 73% at 1st3... we've finally figured out how to stand still in a halt, stop impersonating a dolphin in the canter, and kindof organize his giant canter (still a ways to go!). Next show his 3 year old full brother (Dwayne) gets to come along!

Thanks to Nexus Saddlery for supplying Panda yet another saddle (at age 6 we've been through a few saddles. Don't think we are done yet!

If you have used my nutrition consulting services in the past- I would love to have a testimonial on your experience! This may be published on the Legacy Equine Nutrition page (where I have received my certification from). You can email it to me at: [email protected] or post here. A picture of your horse would be great too! Truly appreciate it!
