Aiden Update

by | Apr 23, 2011 |

We picked up Aiden today in anticipation of him going to training tomorrow, and Nadia’s return (if you hadn’t heard, she is already pending adoption).  Here’s a picture of him hanging out in our pasture.  He’s still only about 14h, but stocky and absolutely a…

Corona Update April 23 2011

by | Apr 23, 2011 |

Quick update for your Easter weekend…this beautiful day I took Corona out and cleaned him up. Finally, he is growing in a much healthier-looking summer coat where he had been bald in patches. He is still clinging on to some of the more stubborn long wiry winter coat…

Nadia — Pending Adoption!

by | Apr 21, 2011 |

Nadia is not even back from training yet (she is coming back on Sunday), and she already has a potential adopter!  They went up and tried Nadia up at the trainer’s and feel she is a perfect fit for her family.  Pending adoption!

breed: Percheron cross color: grey age: 14 (born 1997) sex: mare height: 16 hh location: Monroe, WA Charmeon is green broke and best suited for an intermediate or above rider. Charmeon is a very nice mare with good conformation and a beautiful, floating trot. She was…

Charmeon Update — April 17

by | Apr 17, 2011 |

Charmeon is coming along well in her training and is much better about steering. She starts out very forward but runs out of steam quickly as she’s not very fit, but she remains very level-headed, sweet, and easy to work with. She’s a powerful mover and a fun ride! I…

Nadia & Aiden Update — April 17

by | Apr 17, 2011 | ,

Next weekend, Nadia will be returning from training.  She has been doing really well, and finally learning how to be a proper arena horse and not just having two speeds (“dead run” and “whoa”).  She is learning how to give to the bit and has not had any issues with…

Bucky B Lucky update — April 17

by | Apr 17, 2011 |

We had an emergency call with Dr. Hannah last week when Corona managed to crib a board  so much that it broke, and then somehow Lucky managed to gouge himself on the pointed end of the board. He’s fine, but wasn’t too happy about it being touched for a few days to be…

Annie & Zan — April 17

by | Apr 17, 2011 | ,

Annie and Zanadu were stars this weekend! Annie had a potential adopter come and ride her on Saturday as did Zanadu, who was ridden in a lesson with our trainer. Both rode the horses really well and would make really great matches for them. They both plan to come back…

Dexter — April 17, 2011

by | Apr 17, 2011 |

Dexter has been doing really well at home. Last weekend, he gave Sara’s daughter Angelique her first ride ever on a horse, a lunge lesson with Andrea and was very patient as Angelique was learning to post. Yesterday, Sara rode him in a lesson and worked on starting to…

Sinatra Update — April 17

by | Apr 17, 2011 |

Not so good news on Sinatra — Dr. Hannah was able to replicate his lameness after several days of lunging and using nerve blocks localized the issue to both front legs, in the area of the fetlock down. When she blocked out the right, which was the one he was visually…

Romeo Update

by | Apr 17, 2011 |

Romeo is healing well after his castration and will probably be ready to leave NWESC in a week or two. At this point we are just waiting for him to realize he isn’t a stallion anymore and settle — he is still very fixated on other horses right now.

Nadia Update — 4/17
