WELCOME

Anchor Creek Farms sport horses have stamina, ground manners, and a solid foundation that makes them appropriate for active competitors and amateur owners. I strive to train a horse who is the “complete package” – dazzling dressage judges or clearing a three foot-six jump isn’t enough if they won’t trailer without a fuss or stand quietly while you mount. Each horse is only offered for sale after they have proven themselves safe on the ground and in the saddle. 

Read about the adventures of our horses and their new owners on my Satisfied Clients page. Their satisfaction and success is my ultimate goal.

SPORT HORSES FOR SALE

Felix – Paint Draft Cross Gelding

Felix is a one of a kind boy. Kind, friendly, and intelligent, he is willing to do anything. His enthusiasm comes out when you point him to a fence. He wants to go down the line and shows natural ability to a jump. Cute over a fence, Felix shows lots of aptitude as a jumper. He has also been started over some small xc country fences. A pleasure xc, he has a nice rhythmic gait, not to slow, but also no pulling. His flat work is coming along well, schooling training level and moving up to First level once he's strong enough. He shows a ton of potential in the dressage ring as well. Currently we are strength training and doing a lot of stretching, teaching him to reach for the bit and stay connected. I can't say enough good things about this boy. A pleasure to ride and be around. He hacks out alone or with others. He's suitable for a confident amateur who is working with a trainer, or someone who has experience finishing young horses. Not a bad bone in this horses body, perfect mount for someone looking to finish and make their own horse. Excellent foundation. Name: Felix Birth year: April 2019 Breed/Sex: Paint Draft Cross Gelding Height: 16 hands Color: Grey and white paint Ground manners: Like all Anchor Creek Farms horses, Felix has excellent ground and stall manners, will bathe, trailer, clip, and stand for his feet to be handled. Sound with no vices, current on Coggins and shots. Price : $20,000

Training an Anchor Creek Sport Horse

Anchor Creek Farms sport horses have stamina, ground manners, and a solid foundation that makes them appropriate for active competitors and amateur owners.

Most of the horses I train have never had a saddle on their back. We start out by establishing respect and confidence through rigorous groundwork, and only after they can calmly longe, turn on the forehand and respond to pressure are they introduced to having a rider on their back.

The most important skill a young horse can learn is the art of self-balance and collection. My goal is to have my horses be light in the bridle so a dressage foundation is integral to their education, regardless of what their final job will be. Horses offered for sale will be schooling at least Training Level and most will have progressed to First Level movements.

After they are comfortable under saddle we begin to explore the world outside the ring. They are exposed to all the scary noises and objects found around the farm, so they quickly become used to farm machinery, cows, barking dogs, and cars.

My goal is that the horse you come to see will have excellent ground manners, be a gentleman or lady in the stable, and a partner with the solid basics to join you on your journey.
