Due to a substantial hospital bill resulting from Craig's involuntary dismount we are entertaining offers on Okie. He is the oldest, most experienced and "ready to go" of our young horses. Okie can go in any direction from a super family horse to a successful competition horse. Please call if you think he may be a good fit for you.

Today was RF A-OKs very first show. He did the Beginner Novice 2-Phase at the lovely Appletree Farm. While he didn't get a ribbon, he was a rockstar! His manners were perfect, he was sensible and cooperative and Craig said he was just FUN!
