3 year old Stallions

I was able to grab my camera yesterday and play out in the field with the boys. Something I should do more often, especially now with self isolation. I was lucky enough to get a few good shots of the boys at play. Of course the best action shots are….. well…let’s just say I really should get that Fuji out and practice more….

A very pretty mare was on the other side of the fence in the picture below, and the boys were just admiring her over the fence. Perhaps just a little love struck, it is spring after all and the sun was bouncing off her long beautiful Friesian mane.

The boy on the left is a full brother to Julius 486.

The boy on the right is a Hette 481 and was imported as a yearling.

Two very sweet young men.

Once they got this play out of their system them turned back into the gentle souls they really are.

The young stallion Honor

Horse truly are athletes, to be able to float in the air. This was Honor last summer, just feeling good in the sun. Timing is everything!

Education weekend!

The KFPS were well represented at the TCCA clinic last weekend.

Ulrik and Rein had the privilege of learning from PJ and Tara Crowley at the clinic held at the Ancaster fair grounds.

Thank you TCCA for a great clinic.

Girls just want to have Fun

Rein out for a pleasure drive. This girl loves to drive. She might be small but she is mighty.

Wietske has had enough of being in foal. She heard about the 40% humidity coming this weekend and is not very happy about it.

Mette and Honor

Mette has honored us with a little Hessel colt. He is a very spunky young man running circles around all the mares, and being met by ears flat and a sideways glance.

I think he is simply preparing the other mares for things to come.

2017 Keuring

Another inspection has come and gone. It took months of preparation. We had great help in the barn this year that to bring it all together.

The horse showed so well.

The boys both made Star. Having two 3 year old stallions in the barn is always a challenge. Every time a lady passes by they make sure she knows they are around with a whinny or a head toss of that beautiful Friesian fore top.

Here is a few pictures of the boys in their finest! And little girl Rein showing off.

Ever once in a while a horse comes along that wraps its self with in your heart. Rein is one of those horses. She will never tower over all the other horses, or become the Alfa of the herd. Rein had a slow start in life a first foal for Durkheim, coming 2 & 1/2 weeks early. Her mom only produced half the milk she required to start her young life. She quickly got use to milk replacer as a supplement, organic probiotic yogurt, (my horses will get what ever they need to help them survive), along with supplements recommended by the fenway foundation. At 4 years old she is a beauty. Like I said she will never be a 17 hand horse, but she surpassed 17 hands in my heart along time ago. There is truth in the old saying, Good Things Come In Small Packages!

Reign on Miss Rein!
