HUGE Congrats to Nicki and her FEI trainer Amber, in CA, GREAT things to COME w/ this special BOY!!
Oh dear Jana.
U rock.
Thank u with all my heart â¤ï¸ Hereeeee’s Adoniz (aka Ruscherd)
I want to let you know how very happy I am with my lovely new horse I purchased from you a few weeks ago.
I am referring to Ruscherd fan Bokkum, AKA, Adoniz. He has settled in beautifully, and is totally on board with our program. He is in full dressage training, and truly loves his work.
My trainer brings out the best ln him, even though it is rather easy to do, because of his stellar temperament. You have known me for several years now, and was aware how hesitant I have been to buy a horse, sight unseen, without test riding them, and to get a feel of what the horse is about.
But, when I saw the videos of Adoniz, I couldn’t ignore him. After talking with you quite a bit and exchanging information, I became much more comfortable with the notion of taking the plunge, and bring him to California. What also made it a easier decision, is how much you helped me out in giving me the name of his trainer and his vet in the Netherlands. I spoke with both of them, and exchanged quite a few conversations with his trainer of 3 years. It just solidified my decision, and am over the moon that moved forward.
Your willingness to assist me with shipping, setting him up to be gelded, making payment for any expenses that did not include his price, and even how to set up an overseas calling connection to make contacting the Netherland folks in such a easy manner. Felt like they were just down the block from me. I would not have known how to have done that without your guidance. Your service credo was more than I could have expected, and want to thank you again and again for making the entire process a very pleasant and efficient one. Adoniz is a grand horse, with a lot of talent, skill, and willingness to learn new things. I was told by several people, besides yourself, what a great horse he is, and whoever buys him, will not be disappointed. How true that has been. He is even more and better than I expected.
Last week, my trainer rode him in a clinic with a top Grand Prix competitor. I was sitting next to him, so I can listen to what he was instructing my trainer what to do, etc. After about 10 minutes he said “Looks like you have a Grand Prix horse on your hands.” Can you imagine how proud and excited I got when he said that??!! We have so much to look forward to, and I just know, he is going to become even better and better.
It’s so important for importers such as yourself help to make a potential buyer the right decision in buying a horse, whether for pleasure, trail riding, dressage and whatever else. A good match is so important, especially for amateurs. It would be a very heartbreaking situation, if Adoniz was not a good fit for me, because I am not a pro, and maybe he would need a pro to ride him effectively We count on your expertise to guide us in selecting the horse that is best suited for our skills, and one that is safe, sane and a joy to ride. So, for that I also thank you, because I feel people will trust you in giving them accurate and honest information about the horse’s background, etc.
Well, Janna, I did it, and am so thrilled to have him in my lovely herd of Friesian horses. He may be the one to watch, for sure. Will keep you informed about Adoniz’ Excellent Adventures. xoxo.
With gratefulness and joy
Nicki Lucas"

Congrats to Vicki in Wisconsin!
Dear Janna,
My Merlin (Kors), the magical horse, that you sent to me is beyond words. The first time I got on him I said--- take a leap of faith, out loud. I am alone here, so this can be an exciting moment. If you recall, I asked about 4 horses, and you said, this is the ONE for you. Today we cantered and I know we will get this done.. I will post pictures if I can find someone to take them.
I got to be 12 years old riding again. He is so wonderfully forward that I am transported to a wonderful space, the present. Merlin aka Kors can make you young again.
Thank you,
Vicki in WI

Grats to Bob and Kelly in NJ on their 2 NEW BOYS:)
Our breath was taken away the minute we saw our horses come off the transport trailer! Prior to delivery, our trainer told us to brace ourselves as she has seen several other horses delivered internationally, (not from Janna) that have looked sub par upon arrival. Well, we saw two Supermodels who were incredibly fit and GLOWING with peaceful, sweet, calm and well adjusted demeanors!! Our boys have been in the country for less than a week, yet they have managed to accumulate praise and compliments on how strikingly beautiful and sweet they are from everyone who has interacted with them and seen them. It is truly LOVE at first site! Janna is EXCELLENT at what she does. As I told Janna, it is very difficult and unnerving to trust people when purchasing a horse sight unseen but we are so ELATED that we took this leap of faith with Janna!!!! You can trust Janna. She truly has MAGNIFICENT resources for your Friesian fairytale happy ending!!! We can't wait to fill our days loving and spoiling these unbelievably gorgeous, sweet boys!!!! Thank you Janna!!!! You are one of a kind!! If you want professionalism and delivery on promises, Janna is your person!!

Headed to Texas for one LUCKY new owner:)
Janna- He arrived in good shape and is LOVELY!! We named him "Capricho", which means "a whim, an obsession, a mirage, an illusion." This boy is exactly as you described, he is a DOLL OF A HORSE!!! He is extremely gentle and Cristina is developing a partnership with him already. She is going to have a LOT of FUN with him. THANK YOU!!! -Jose in Texas

Gerbrich is Going to Utah!
I just purchased Gerbrich Sport and my father purchased Tjitske Ster. They are both gorgeous mares. They have wonderful temperaments. They love attention and are perfect to groom. Their manes and tails are a dream come true. They look like Disney princess mounts! Gerbrich has been wonderful to ride. She is exactly what we expected, and I am so happy to own her. I’m excited to use her to move up the levels in Dressage. We are also very excited for Tjiske’s foal in the Spring. Janna was wonderful to work with, and has always been available for questions. I would highly recommend using Black Sterling Friesians!
Thanks so much. Both mares are gorgeous!!!!!
.....I rode Gerbrich today. She was awesome. I’m so excited to have her!!!! She is gorgeous and such a good girl.

Congrats Tony and Jesus!
Janna is such an honest business person, a JOY to do business with, and i have purchased MANY friesians from her.....I wish ALL horse people were as transparent as SHE is.
If you are looking to buy a friesian sight unseen, you need to buy from someone you can TRUST---Janna with Fairytale Friesian is THAT person. You need to give HER a call, i am sooooo glad i did!

Chanel is Headed to Louisiana, Congrats to the Broussard Family!
Janna,
Thanks for all the assistance; you have been very patient with us and quick to return emails and calls. We are very impressed with the way you run your business. We had the same experience with your trainer (I think you call her Freddie) she was so very nice and helpful. In fact she sold us on the horse as much as the horse sold us on the horse. Hahaha… she was delightful and it is so very obvious she loves what she does. Regards,
Tammy in Louisiana
