About
Double Starz Ranch
Arabians
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 family history with Arabians and Quarter Horses gave her the knowledge and experience she needed to raise, breed, and work with both breeds harmoniously.
She comes from a long family line of horse trainers and breeders dating back almost 200 years. This was a key element in her natural ability to train and work with horses, especially in her chosen riding disciplines. 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.

Michelle had
acquired more miles in the saddle by the age of 20 than most people can
achieve in an entire lifetime. She continues today to start her own
horses that are born and raised on her ranch. The ground training
starting at the birth of a foal, to the trail desensitizing of the
foal's adolescent years, and then the beginning of the saddle work is
just the start of the paces that Michelle's horses are put through. She
makes sure that all horses originating from Double Starz Ranch are able
to have a full useful life, whether they stay at the ranch or go on to
new homes.
Today Michelle works to ensure that her children will develop and hone these same skills and understanding of these magnificent animals, and be able to pass it on to future generations. And with how well her children are doing to date, the future generations are going to have an excellent tomorrow.
