Going, going, GONE! Salem and August are sold and will be going to their new homes in just a couple of months. We wish them the very best in their new homes. Salem is going to make a wonderful family trail gelding, and you'll see August in the show ring as a stallion. We strive to get the perfect match every time and think these homes couldn't be a better fit for these two. We will miss them dearly, but can't wait to see updates on them in the future.

Amazing news!!! Since Tweetie is such a great mom, I thought I'd reach out to the community to see if there were any orphan foals in need and I found one! We got the foal over that day and attempted to graph her on to Tweetie, and to everyone's pleasure it was an instant success! She loves her new baby and the filly is doing much better mentally and physically now that she has a mom. She lost her mom at only a few days old and hadn't been doing well. Now she is bright, alert, happy, and packing on the pounds.
Salem isn't so sure about this girl coming in and stealing his mom, but Tweetie still watches over him and considers both of them her foals. This mare is worth her weight in gold. This family is as cute as can be. Salem still gets to hang out with his mom and new sister out in the pasture every day. He is so gorgeous. However takes him home is going to be so lucky.
Say hello to GGV Stray Cat Strut! This handsome colt came into the world at 3:30am May 24. He is so handsome and soooo sweet. He had a rough start though. It took him a week to figure out the whole "nursing" business. But thanks to Charleen's quick response and many sleepless nights, he is now nursing like a pro and 100% healthy. We will share more pictures soon.
We are counting down the days until our first foal arrives! We are within the safe to foal date range, but it looks like we may have at least a week until we see a baby. Tweetie gave us a beautiful filly last year, and I'm sure this year's foal will be just as amazing. Pictured here is Tweetie's 2020 filly now. Isn't she perfection?! Contact us today to get on the "dibs" list for Tweeite's 2021 foal.
We had a beautiful filly born late at night April 13th. She is already a beautiful mover and very loving. We are so proud of Tweetie for being such a good mama.
It's time for a giveaway! Head over to out Facebook page to submit your guess as to what the circumferences of our mares' baby bumps are. Whoever is the closest has their choice of t-shirt, color changing mug, or tote bag. There will be TWO winners! Contest ends February 22nd. Good luck!
We took Acorn and Tweetie to the CSU Vet Teaching Hospital, where the students got to practice their ultrasound techniques. Here is a video of Acorn's foal's heartbeat. As you can see it is strong and steady. Both foals are looking healthy and big. We couldn't be more excited. We're getting closer every day! Tweetie has a bun in the oven and is carrying very nicely. April 10th is her due date and we are just so excited to see what she produces.
