Rollo arrived safely in NY yesterday morning.

He was really well behaved the whole trip and remained calm coming off the trailer. His temperament is perfect. He is just what I was hoping for. Thanks for everything.I will be driving into Michigan tomorrow evening to meet him as he gets off the trailer. Can't wait! A Dutch trainer will be working with him for a month then he comes home. Thanks so much for everything!

Update... I absolutely love my new boy. He is everything you said he would be. He is so sweet, tries very hard to please, and is beautiful. I thank you for representing him honestly and helping me find the perfect match.

Janna,

I keep saying it … but mean it – thank you for everything & putting up with my many questions.OMG … I’m sooooo excited – can hardly stand it.

“Ik hou van jou” – means I love you in Dutch---- I’m practicing so I can tell him.... Yes I’m goofy.  My husband has never been around horses so was very apprehensive. But … He is as much in love with Malibu as I am … his fears melted when Malibu gave him his first ‘horsey hug’, which he does a lot! Malibu is healthy, strong and doing very well. He watches for us and runs to the gate to greet us. He is amazing.

Hi Janna: Just wanted to touch in and let you know that Impuls arrived safe and sound the evening of August 8th. He was perfection!!! A beautiful animal with an even more beautiful spirit!!!! We are all in L-O-V-E. He settled in seamlessly and seems very content with his new home and all his new "brothers." He will have a home abundant with love, compassion, attention and exercise.
I am SO glad we found him. :-)
And, Felicia and Billy of Blew By U Horse Transportation were exceptional too. I would recommend them to anyone who wants a safe, professional and expedient hauler for their treasured equines.
Happy trails! Jodi in San Diego

thanks for everthing janna!

It was a DELIGHT doing business with you. You honestly represent your horses, and are so informative and helpful, even months after the purchase!  i have purchased  horses before from another friesian farm, and honesty and integrity was NOT part of that equation:( 

I am soooo glad i found YOU!

This time i got a healthy, gorgeous horse--she is EXACTLY what i was hoping for!  thank you!!!!! she is a sweetheart:)

Thank you, Janna!

Trobasco arrived safely, stepped gently out of the trailer, and immediately called out to every mare within 5 miles. He looks great and we’ll spend more time with him in the morning.

Lucca (Jense)  is doing great so far. We are enjoying him. Thank you again!

Hi Janna,
Hope your 2015 is off to a good start! Just wanted to give you an update on Willem. We decided to make his first outing in 2014 the IFSHA World Championship show and he was named Reserve World Champion, the World Champion was another horse we have in training as well! We love Willem and completely agree with you that he has FEI potential. We adore his lofty trot and canter.
Take care, Scott

Janna, I am so excited thank you. I feel like a child at Xmas, thanks again for giving me this opportunity! Can' t wait till he gets here...

Roosevelt arrived a little after ten o'clock last night. As the hauler brought him off the trailer he was even more beautiful than I expected.

Even in the dark I could appreciate his beauty!

He was a bit nervous as I led him to his new home but he was trusting of me. He settled right in and nickered at the new neighbors.

Thank you once again Janna for making this possible!

This is Merlin- (I think you named him Tino).

I think I bought him from you like 10 years ago maybe 12… Anyways, he’s doing great!!!

He’s 21 !!

 Ciska is really settling in well. We have had friends and neighbors come to see her and they all comment on how calm and relaxed she is – especially after being transported across country and coming into a new barn with new people and new horses. She is truly amazing.

That horse is totally chill! Even when our horses were all lined up to see her, she still didn't get upset. Not one horse put their ears back even when they met through the fence.
She is just awesome! So refined and really beautiful. I already love her personality. Nothing seems to upset her. Just what I was hoping she would be. Of course, there are 8 Nigerian Dwarf goats in the barn providing their own kind of music for her to listen to. She didn't even seem to mind that!
Love her already!

Update...
Hey Janna: I just thought I would check in and let you know that Ciska is doing just great. The winter in Iowa has been horrific with not a whole lot of snow but really cold temps and horrendous winds. She has absolutely superb manners and is really affectionate. She is a great horse. THANK YOU.

 Sorzio made it safe and sound last night. He is such a sweetheart!!!!

Sooo happy!!!

I love and adore him. --Thanks! Jessica in GA

Update....
Hi Janna!!! 2016 was an incredibly successful year for us! Our scores at First Level were as high as 78.89%, winning High Point Lower Level at the Woodside Dressage Show in May! Odin and I made our debut at Second Level in October, with limited warmup due to rain. He stayed focused in the ring and won both Second Level classes! Odin is adored everywhere he goes - he has fans! He's the most trainable boy with the sweetest demeanor I've ever come across. He's good in every situation, and handles new places with ease. Thank you so much for bringing this WONDERFUL boy to the U.S. so he can be enjoyed by all! -Tiffany
