Our
horses
We
now
have 6 horses available all of whom have a very good character(only
Estrella is a little bit naughty... ) and are
prepared for some hard work. We have kind and strong Hafflingers, but
they do have spirit. There are 2 Lusitanos crossed with English blood
and
there is one full blooded Lusitano mare.
These horses are very sweet and reliable
,but also have pith when needed.
We ride with English equipment, the
saddles have woolen protection for comfortable riding and there are
saddlebags for the longer rides.
Quo
-Vadis
Breed: Anglo
Luso
Birth: 1999
He's a pretty boy, with his long legs he's very
forward. He listens very good to voice and legs. He wants to
be in
front leading
his girls to the right path. A very sweet and reliable horse,
the only
boy in the stable, you just have to think where you want to go and
he takes you there...
Lola
Breed: X-Lusitanian
Birth: 1996
The
baroque horse. What a character, and definitely the merriest. She
always
knows how to unravel her halter.
Funny how she always goes for the wheelbarrow; and there goes all the
dung again. Very smart and playful, if you show her who's leading,
she'll do anything for you. She is one of the horses who loves to munch
around and is the only one who likes it when Fonz our dog eats together
with her...some times she's a bit lazy but when she has
the spirit you will feel it immediately.
She loves to jump...so once in a while I have to go and catch her in
another field.
Lusia
Breed: Lusitanian
Birth: 1992
Walking
light as a cloud. This mare takes you everywhere, always happy and
wanting to work. Graceful as she is, the most comfortable horse. She
trusts her rider and is very sensitive in the mouth...
Milo
Breed: Hafflinger
Birth: 2000
The
youngest children and grown ups learn to ride on her, she is very
mischievous, but also a hard worker and willing to learn, very smart
she is and funny, as you can see...naughty and very
sweet...she's the protector of the herd, and ooh how she
wants to be
the leader of the pack...
Trudy
Breed: Hafflinger
Birth: 1993
The
bodybuilder among the horses. This Hafflinger is as fiery as a
Lusitanian.The big boss of the little herd Her versatility and
endurance is endless, hard working lady
and very comfortable to ride without a saddle and easy to steer without
bridle...a lot of times she is used as a fast way to move around the
farm and village...all children love her and she is very gentle with
them when we have lessons...
Maxim
