About Us

 

Owner, Michelle Martin, has owned horses all of her life with breeds ranging from Arabians to Thoroughbreds to Quarter Horses, and quite a few others in between. Her passion for breeding Arabians was developed as a small child, as all children wanted a horse just like "The Black Stallion" of Walter Farley's. Michelle set out to breed the ideal Arabian that possessed ALL the traits that make the breed so unique.

Quarter Horses have always been Michelle's second love, and she learned from an early age to respect and utilize their wonderful traits as a working horse. Her mother's family history with Arabians and her father's history with Quarter Horses gave her the knowledge and experience she needed to raise both breeds harmoniously.

She comes from a long family line of horse trainers dating back more than 100 years. This was a key element in her natural ability to train and work with these breeds of horses. Michelle has a great love for endurance, cutting, and reining horses and strives to teach a little of each of these sports in every horse she trains.

 She works to ensure that her children will develop these skills and the love of these animals and be able to pass them on to other generations.
