I am so pleased to have made a whirlwind trip from the Seattle area  
to Hestehaven in Day's Creek, Oregon and found Overmann for my  
student!  Catherine is a delightful host, excellent horsewoman, and  
great human, as you all probably already know!  What fun to have Amy  
(hi Amy!! thank you for all your help and fun!!) hop on the two  
geldings I was looking at so I could take photos and videos and then  
I got to have the fun times, riding both Mid Hans and Overmann!  If  
you or someone you know is looking for a big Fjord with a matching  
big heart and kind, strong personality, Mid Hans is your man!  What a  
mover!  I wish he lived next door and I could play with him under  
saddle more!  It's a good thing my 6' tall daughter wasn't along, or  
Mid Hans would have been in the hatchback of our little Beetle car  
driving north on I-5 yesterday!  Wow!


Overmann is a delight!  He's a very nice 13.3, which is perfect for  
Alan, his new owner, who is small.  I felt like a grasshopper on him  
with my legs bent up to keep my legs on riding english!  He is a  
dream - light in the mouth and off the seat, really willing, and ever  
so handsome!  He will be an excellent arena and trail horse for Alan,  
and I couldn't be more pleased for both of them.  Ok, pleased for me  
too, as I get to care for the pony and teach the human!


Fjords are simply a blast, and this group is terrific - after posting  
here that I was looking for a nice horse for a student I got a few  
phone calls and emails, one leading me to Catherine's fellows.

Thank you!!
Emily

P.S.  My mare, Lite Jenta (aka Biscuit) also makes fur angels, and it  
is hilarious!  I've been wearing my rain gear when I groom her for  
fear of looking like I'm wearing a Fjord costume!!! ;-)

Hello Fjord Friends,

 

This is to announce that we have a new Fjord owner in the Pacific Northwest.
His name is Alan Towne and he is the proud new owner of Overmann.  Overmann
will be going up to Washington State and live at the Fish Bowl Farm on
Vashon Island. He will be under the supervision of trainer, dressage and
eventing coach Emily Wigley.  We are very excited to see Overmann go to a
great new home. 

 

Congratulations! Alan & Emily!

PS. We still have one really good well trained gelding left. Hans! 15 hands,
big mover, rides and drives and is very good at farm work. He would have
gone up North except he was too big. He will ended up selling to the first
person that comes and sees him and those that are waiting for more sunshine
will lose out. :-) It is now the time to look for your new Fjord. 

 

Coming soon. FOALS. We will have only 3 arriving this year. We have 2
geldings from last year for sale. If you are in the market for young stock.
(mares in foal or a well trained gelding.) Call us!
