New homes for four of our horses!


Congratulations to Ashley and Rob Wise on their purchase of our AQHA filly SS Shez A Mae Zing and AQHA gelding My Little Trooper!


Mae is a 2 year old flaxen chestnut filly with tons of personality and talent. Her dam is a full sister to an AQHA Versatility Horse of the Year with 2000+ points. Mae loves people and is looking for a job to do, so we are pleased she has gone to a new home where she can begin her riding career.

The Wise's also took home My Little Trooper, a black-bay Appendix gelding who is a grandson of Coosa. Trooper is an athletic horse who has shown potential in many areas including working cattle and jumping. The Wise's are the perfect match to bring out his potential.

Ashley Wise is additionally partnering with her friend Leigh Bryan on a little filly named Muffin who they plan to train and resell. If you are looking for a fancy large pony, this filly is going to be a superstar. She is an adorable doll-headed two year old filly, a "surprise" gift from a mare we purchased at auction who was not supposed to be in foal. Muffin is super sweet and a fancy mover, so it wasn't a bad surprise at all, although it will still take some detective work to determine who her daddy is.

Finally, Leigh fell in love with "Gala," one of our tallest yearlings, and decided to take her home. Gala is a bay filly by KLR Reflection out of Bess Conclusion. She is sweet, scared of nothing, and will be a tall girl. "Bessie" is proving to be a terrific broodmare. We purchased her at auction a few years ago - she and her dam Kit Cluesive had fallen into the hands of a horse dealer and were at risk. Bessie has now given us two terrific fillies in a row - this year's edition is a buckskin with a big hip and lovely head - and Kit gave us a very friendly and correct palomino colt before we sold her.

Congratulations, ladies, on your new horses! We have many more available so please feel free to send us an e-mail and let us know what you are looking for.

April 2007 News from Yellow Horses, Inc.

We have moved to our new facility in McKenna, Washington and the broodmare band is very much enjoying their new pastures! We have three new 2007 babies so far. The first is a beautiful buckskin filly with a doll head and a huge hip, by Sierras Super Star out of Bess Conclusion. She is sweet as sugar and a fantastic show prospect for someone wanting to compete in both AQHA and ABRA or IBHA shows.


The second to arrive was a huge palomino colt by KLR Reflection out of Just Plain Nasty. Unfortunately, we lost "Nasty" - who was the opposite of her name - to a twisted intestine just four days after baby was born. It was touch and go for a while but now the baby has been adopted by our senior broodmare, Miss Dusty Devil, and with the help of some milk replacer, is doing well. He is the biggest of the babies - not surprising since his mother was a 17 hand Thoroughbred.























Our most recent baby arrived just before we moved - a fancy chestnut colt by Sierras Super Star out of Dignified Annie. Annie is one of the newest members of our broodmare band, a gorgeous daughter of The Dignitary. Not only is she a wonderful broodmare, but she rides too - last fall, she took home a collection of hunt seat ribbons at a large open show with a child who had only ridden her once before!

That's the news for now, although I am sure we will have more baby pictures to post very soon...
