Last weekend Carlin had two very nice tests on Dewi at AGDF in Wellington. There's still room for improvement, but I’m really proud of both of them! With Secreto, she schooled him very nicely throughout the weekend! Congratulations on your rides!! 💪🐎😁🐴👏

What a good way to start the season for Carlin and her pony Dewi! They had a nice test on the first day and on the second day, even with the pouring, rain she handled it very well!

Congratulations Carlin! Keep up the great work!

A few pictures from this week of Carlin and her two of her sweet boys in Wellington!

Happy Birthday .dye.758!! We all hope you are having a wonderful day and that this year is filled with joy and happiness!

All of my team (horses and riders) had such a great week at USDF Region 9 Championships! Petey worked very well and gave me his all inside of the show arena. Jaz came along to school and seemed to really like the big show atmosphere. Carlin did a great job showing her two boys, Dewi and Secreto. Emma and Vivi had several nice moments in her third level tests. Well done to all!!
Thank you to my students and clients for your dedication and continued support. Congratulations everyone on a great show!!
Another thank you goes out to all who made the show possible and our sponsors. Last but not least, a huge thank you to our groom for taking such a good care of all our horses!

I am very proud of both of my students performances at the GSEC Platinum Classic USDF Show! Carlin did a great job debuting Secreto at 2-3 and Dewi on 3-3. She proved she was ready for these levels and she handled both horses very well in both tests. Emma Claire had a successful weekend showing her boy Vivi in 3-3! I was pleased to see how happy she was to be back in the show ring. Congrats to them both on an excellent weekend!

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a NEW DREAM!!

Thank you

Never give up on your horse cause your horse would never give up on you! ❤️🦄❤️

Happpppy Birthdayyyy Tiago!!!! 🎉😁🥂🦄🎊

This past weekend Carlin and Secreto got a chance to ride a test and train another time in the show ring. In our philosophy, it is very important to learn every little detail about your horse. This weekend was about being able to ride and teach her horse in the show ring and she did it pretty well considering she finished with a High Point on Sunday! Congratulations Carlin you are rockin' it!

This past weekend some of our HDC team went to the USDF Tex-Over Farms CDI 2* & Houston Dressage Spring Classic I and 2 show. They had a great weekend and we are so proud of how well they did! Carlin and Dewi showed 3rd level for the first time at a recognized show with clean changes and big smiles! Sara and Petey showed together for the first time at Great Southwest Equestrian Center and rocked it!

Congratulations to our team on a super weekend!

Thank you to all the volunteers and the show staff that helped the show run so smoothly. We couldn't do it without you!
