🚨 SPRING & SUMMER 2027 TRAINING SPOTS ARE BOOKING! 🐴

I know, I know… we're still in 2026. But if you've been around horses long enough, you know spring will be here before we can blink.... or at least we can hope!

If getting your horse into training is on your 2027 to-do list, NOW is the time to start planning as spots fill quickly.

At Barefoot Farms Equestrian, we specialize in:

🐴 C**t starting & first rides
🐴 Green horse development
🐴 Confidence building & real-world exposure
🐴 Behavioral challenges & problem-solving
🐴 Tune-ups & continued education
🐴 Building better partnerships between horses and their owners

Our training program includes:
✔️ 5–6 training sessions per week
✔️ Individualized training based on YOUR horse
✔️ Two owner lessons per month
✔️ Weekly progress updates
✔️ Quality care in a clean, organized facility

⚠️ SPRING & SUMMER TRAINING AVAILABILITY IS LIMITED!

I intentionally keep my training program at a manageable size so every horse gets the attention, consistency, and care it deserves. Don't wait until the weather gets nice to start looking for a trainer. By then, the dates you're hoping for may already be spoken for!

Whether you're hoping to get your young horse started, build confidence before trail season, or work through some challenges, let's start the conversation NOW.

📩 Message Barefoot Farms Equestrian to discuss your horse's needs and reserve your preferred 2027 training dates!

Good horses aren't built overnight. Let's get a head start on 2027. 🐴❤️

If your mom doesn’t pack your bags for training, I don’t want you! 🤣💕 JK, JK!

Hay bag? ✅ Suitcase? ✅ Everything a girl needs for her trip? ✅🧳🌾💊

But seriously, there’s something so nice about knowing your horse has everything she needs to feel comfortable, settled, and ready to go. Having their hay, familiar things, and all the little necessities packed and ready makes those days a little easier on everyone! Your horse is comfy, I have what I need and you can sleep knowing they are in good hands.

Because if we’re going to send our babies, they’re going FIRST CLASS.

🐴 A Fancy Streke aka “Fancy”
📍 Kalamazoo, MI

Fancy is a 2019 APHA registered, 14.3hh black and white tobiano mare. Bloodlines go back to pepsi poco. She is a PROJECT with a lot of potential and is looking for an experienced home where she can have a job and continue her education.

Fancy is homozygous black and homozygous tobiano (TO/TO) and is 5-panel negative.

She is a really lovely horse to have around and has excellent ground manners. She is respectful, soft in the halter, good-natured, and easy to handle.

On the ground she:

Fancy ties quietly, loads right onto the trailer, good for the farrier, vet and dentist. Stands for fly spray and bathing. Lunges respectfully both on and off the line. Fancy is good in a stall or turned out 24/7. Is an easy keeper and goes barefoot with solid feet. Is good in a herd and respects fencing. Has been around traffic, dogs, chickens, and farm equipment. Has no cribbing, pawing, biting, striking, or other dangerous ground behaviors. Is sound with no known injuries or medical conditions. Is utd on shots, coggins, teeth, and feet.

Fancy recently completed 60 days of professional training and also attended a 3-day riding clinic.

Fancy will stand like a rock to be saddled a d bridled. Under saddle, Fancy will walk, trot, canter, stop, back and pivot, and she will ride both in and outside of the arena. She has potential to make a nice ranch/work-type, barrel horse, or cow horse and really seems to benefit from having a job. She has also carried the flag, pushed horses around, and has chased and cut a runaway horse. She has the type of mind that makes me think she could be a very interesting ranch/cow-work or cutting prospect for the right person.

That said, Fancy is being sold as a PROJECT.

She is not always the same horse under saddle and can be inconsistent. She needs to be ridden consistently, ideally daily, to remain consistent and continue progressing. There is an under-saddle issue that I will discuss honestly and in detail with serious potential buyers.

Because of that, Fancy needs an experienced trainer/handler and is not being represented as a beginner or finished riding horse.

She is being sold because she is too much horse for my client, not because of a soundness or health issue.

Experienced home only.

🚫 No trials
🚫 No test rides at our facility
🚫 No trades

Serious inquiries are welcome. I am happy to answer questions about Fancy's under-saddle behavior honestly and discuss whether she may be a good fit before anyone comes to see her.
