Currently located in Waterloo/Valley, NE.....with over 30 years of breeding/training/showing experience, Triple C M

iniatures (formerly Triple C Pinto Horses, and Double U Farm Quarter Horses) is not new to the world of horses; but somewhat new to the world of Miniatures. After more than 3-years rest from the Pinto Show Ring altogether, and the very sad loss of our first double-registered Paint/Pinto Mare who came to us in November 2009 and started it all over for us, we have rejoined the show rings as a family in 2016 with our MINIATURE sized horses & pintos! We have grown an amazing little herd of amazing little horses to date, with the help of the amazing Laura Linhart whom most of our stock came from! Stefanie's very first horse show debut was at the NE State Fair with a miniature mare by the name of Bitsy Betsy back in the mid-1980's......bred and owned by the legendary Melvin Whitmaack. Our herd of minis today, consists of pedigrees that go straight back to Melvin's farm and LEGENDARY breeding program. Our beautiful stallion Stormy (a.k.a. Shadow Lake Stormy, AMHR/AMHA/PtHA) has a disposition and confirmation true to his foundation pedigree which includes breed legends such as Melody's Gold Boy, Roan Ranger, Whitmaacks Mickey Mouse and Johnstons Gold Boy. Right now we are a small operation, and hope to stay that way in an effort to enjoy our horses continually. Watch for us this year on the 2016 NPtHA Show Circuit, the Nebraska AMHA & AMHR SHow Circuit and at other local, small and open shows with our little-bitty horses who have giant hearts! We look forward to horsin' around with you.............

In honor of WORLD OCEANS DAY, today we’re featuring our favorite ocean creature…. sea HORSES! 🐴

Seahorses are extraordinary, highly unique fish that swim vertically, camouflage like chameleons, and are famous for being one of the only species in the animal kingdom where the males carry and give birth to their young.

These fascinating ocean creatures possess a variety of bizarre and surprising traits:
Male Pregnancy: Female seahorses deposit their eggs into a specialized "brood pouch" on the male's abdomen, where he fertilizes them, carries them for weeks, and goes through labor to give birth to tiny babies called fry.

Chameleon Eyes: Their eyes move completely independently of one another. One eye can look forward for a snack, while the other looks backward to watch for danger!

Vacuum Feeding: They don't have teeth or stomachs. Instead, they use their elongated snouts like a vacuum cleaner to suck up about 3,000 tiny crustaceans and plankton a day.

Prehensile Tails: They use their curly tails to anchor themselves to corals and seagrasses, making sure they don't get swept away by strong currents. They even hold tails with their partners during daily greetings!

Natural Swimmers: They are the only fish that swim in an upright, vertical position. However, because their body shape is so unusual, the dwarf seahorse is considered the slowest fish in the world, moving only about five feet per hour!

Master of Disguise: They can change color to blend seamlessly into their surroundings and hide from predators.

If you know, you know!! 😎
“The Farmers Lounge” is coming along nicely… and is just about finished! ❤️ Like the rest of the farm, it’s not fancy (doesn’t need to be!), but it’s functional AND farm cozy. 🏞️ A comfortable place for lesson parents & little ones to cool off while their young students learn, that also functions as a shabby-chic farm store (open by appt only)…. offering my books, my eggs & butcher birds, my farm-fresh jams-jellies-salsas-breads, and more! ✨ So exciting! Will be putting in the finishing touches over the next couple of days, and I can hardly wait to share it with my clients and customers!! 🐴 TripleCPintos.com
