Crisp autumn air and the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday have us bundling up and feeling grateful as the year winds down.

This quiet time of year finds ourÂ broodmares and stallions resting and enjoying the downtime.Â The weanlings are settling into their new routines. In preparation for the trip to continue training in Florida, the riding horses are taking short vacations.Â Our rising three-year-old horses are finishing up their introduction to under saddle work before their winter break at home.

Our sales horses are available to be seen in Pennsylvania through December, so if you're traveling through our area for the holidays, consider a visit!Â

2019 US Dressage Finals

ISF stallions were well-represented in Lexington, KY this year. It was great to see many lovely horses and riders from all over the nation come together for a competitive and exciting (and cold!) US DressageÂ Finals.

Xanadu is kind- hearted with a personable character and shows super potential as a partner to develop through the levels.
