Amaroux & Sherrie
 |
Sherrie found her perfect match Amaroux (2002 Hanoverian
gelding) with the help of Cavallis in March 2007. Siggi
and Kecia were on a Germany trip when we came across the
then 5 year old Amaroux. He was already working
2nd/3rd level when we met him and was such a easy going
boy. Sherrie trusted us enough to buy
him without her trying him herself. A week after his arrival
in Seattle, Amaroux had a VERY LUCKY break when he was
involved in a tragic run-away accident that cost one
horse's life but left Amaroux completely unharmed 12
miles north of KGF Equestrian Center in a garage after having
crossed several busy 4 lane streets at the speed of 35 mph
on pavement and
being followed by police cars. To make a long story
short, his chances of surviving the incident was one to
several million but he did it without a scratch and
without causing any harm or accident to anyone in the
process. Absolutely amazing and very very lucky!!
After that incident, he enjoyed several months of rest
in a grassy big flied at Jones Farm in Maple Valley.
He came back to work in Fall 2007 and is doing really well.
Sherrie is taking regular lessons and making steady
progress, even though she is one busy lady.

Kecia & Laudatio aka Laudi or Mr. Floppy Ears
 |
Kecia found her perfect match, Laudatio (2004 Rhineland
gelding) on that Germany trip that we also found Amaroux
for Sherrie in March 2007. Kecia had some BIG
horse shoes to fill, as she tried to find a successor
for her 18.2h Don Capello (D.C.), who had to retire
early due to reoccurring injury. We looked at many
horses here at home and in Germany, most of them 2nd
level and above and we saw definitely some fancy ones
but in the end, Mr. Floppy Ears, a then barely 3 year
old gelding by Laudabilis stole her heart. He was ridden
a total of 10 times when Kecia tried him but it was all
over for her, it was love at first sight. It also did
not hurt that she met Laudi's breeder, Gisela, who
showed her an entire album of Laudi-baby-pictures and an
ultrasound of him. It was too cute for words.
After his arrival in Seattle with his travel buddy
Amaroux, he spent 6 months on the grassy fields of Jones
Farm to grow some more. He came back to KGF Equestrian
Center to start his
formal training in October 2007. He has been been
coming along nicely - the picture on the left was taken
in April 2008. Kecia is
really enjoying her boy, the training process, the trails at
Bridle State Park and might be showing him at Training
Level later this season.

Laurie & Livingston (aka. The professor or Mr. Fancy
Pants)
 |
Laurie found her perfect match, Livingston (1998
Hanoverian gelding by Lauries Crusador xx) with Cavallis
in Germany on an all girls trip with her friends Kecia &
Linda in August 2005. Sandra had seen Livingston
(then 5 years old) two years prior to that during another horse
shopping trip in Germany and could never get him out of
her mind. So when Laurie started looking for her new
perfect match Sandra knew already way ahead who might be
her perfect match... I guess we
can say it was love at first sight! After Laurie's rode
her first trot extension on Livingston (his absolute
favorite :0) we could not get
her to even look at any other horses!
Laurie's
testimonial says it all, "...I am truly convinced that he is one of the smartest horses ever and
Siggi and I have discussed the possibility of him actually winning a
Nobel Prize (Equine Learning Science or something like that :0)
I love this horse! He is talented, intelligent and kind. I am very
excited about the future with him and hope with all my heart to live
up to him and his potential."
2008 Season,
Laurie has already qualified Livingston for the Championships at
First Level as of May and is now working on doing the same for
Second Level.
