Above all, our foals can enjoy a great and carefree childhood with us. They always have a family connection and are personally looked after by us 24/7. That is why the good and consistent upbringing of our offspring is so important to us. From just a few weeks old, they learn things like how to lead with a halter and how to give hooves so that they and their owners don't have any problems with these basics later in their lives as riding horses. As weanlings at our breeder, they can then learn social behavior in herds of the same age and enjoy their childhood in spacious pastures.
Before we get the young horses used to the saddle and rider's weight, we work on their composure and trust in humans. The horses are then gently lunged, broken in and further trained according to their constitution.
In order to offer our horses a species-appropriate environment with as much variety as possible, the basis for us is daily grazing in the herd. In addition to dressage work, our young horses regularly go out into the field, do pole work and are allowed to jump or free jump. Ground work is also part of the training plan for our youngsters and broodmares.
When our young horses are well ridden and ready for new tasks, they are presented at competitions. Our youngsters were already able to present themselves highly successful in tests for young riding horses and dressage horses with our willing rider Veronika.
As a milestone in their training, our mares have to pass the mare performance test in addition to competitions. There, the mares have to prove themselves, sometimes ridden in an exciting setting, in hand and in free jumping. The versatile and targeted preparation of our mares has already brought us several "state premiums" with the Hanoverians (Hanoverian premium) and the Oldenburgers (Oldenburg main premium).
