Thoroughbreds can do

Allegiant Videos from July

Jul 17, 2009

I really REALLY like Allegiant, and can definitely see her potential. She doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. There is no way I would sell her! She hasn’t done ONE bad thing. Mom and Dad can hold her, and they aren’t even horse people. And, I love how she talks to me when she sees me! I know we will go far! Thanks for all your help!

Shamuuu Makes a New Friend

Aug 12, 2008

                    Just wanted you to know that Shamuuu arrived in fine shape. He was quiet and happy when he got off the trailer even though he’d been on for a long time. I let him hang out in his stall awhile on solid ground, gave him…

Judging Dreams Judged Sound by Vet

Oct 30, 2008

The vet check went (for Judging Dreams) great BUT they had x-rays done.  So the vet here developed them and overnighted them to the buyer’s vet in Connecticut.  Don’t know the outcome, BUT I wanted to buy Irish Morning Mist no matter what the outcome.  SO he will be shipping here on Saturday!  Can’t wait…

Feb 17, 2009

I just got back from Florida with the horses. Lover’s Quarrel (aka “Dante”) was awesome down there. The Ocala Winter II Horse Trials was his first event ever. We put him in at Beginner Novice since we hadn’t even been able to school a cross country course. Three days before the event we took him to Longwood…

Haunted Halloween Hunter Pace is Big Hit for Horses

Oct 28, 2008

We went to the Haunted Hollow Hunter Pace at Ashland, October 18th. We were the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Since most of our Bits & Bytes Farm horses are black or bay, we only took “Dudley” (aka Josh) to be the black horse. Leslie took her chestnut Thoroughbred as the red horse, and Mary…

Excessive Heat Causes Unexpected Issues

Aug 8, 2011

Elizabeth, Thanks for the response. No worries. We are going S-L-O-W, primarily bc. of the extreme heat here in Memphis. Goldie huffs and puffs. He’s getting hosed down round the clock. Despite that, he’s still a love and dealing w/ his frequent presence in the wash rack with relative patience. We have him on One…

I was showing June in Alpharetta this past weekend. June is doing great and getting ribbons in the Adults at “A” shows. She is around 17 hands now and is filling out to be absolutely gorgeous! I have enjoyed her so much and she really seems to be liking her new job as a show hunter.

It was a really big event, only our second time competing at a horse trial, and our first recognized event. I discovered the night before our competition that Heather thinks braids…
