16hh Thoroughbred x Morgan mare, liver chestnut. 4 Years Old. A beautiful horse who is very dainty and refined. Looks to die for and a natural jump - this one is going to be an awesome dressage, hunter or show jumper in the next phase of her career. She is definitely a "ladies" horse. Extremely elegant. This beauty needs an Intermediate to Advanced rider (jumping or dressage) to truly shine. Highly intelligent, sensitive to the aids and very willing to please. Fast, careful and bold. Because of the natural jumping talent this girl, she must be started out correctly, quietly and gently. Only a loving, experienced home will be considered for this super mare. We plan to breed her to Bente D - a world class friesian stallion in June 2008. Once in foal, Tuesday will be no longer be available for adoption.

Stay tuned for updated videos and photos of this special girl. In addition to working under saddle on a regular basis, we have been consistently working on her ground manners and desensitization. She stands quietly for bathing, grooming, farrier and vet. She does not like to be x-tied, but on a loose lead rope tied under her halter - she is just fine. She has walked on heavy duty tarp, stood next to a truck with the diesel engine running, music blaring and horn blasting - it did not phase her. We waved objects in her face and rustled plastic bags all over her - no problem. She will take the hose from you and hold it in her mouth to drink!! A huge personality on this girl. She is boss mare in the pasture. She has also been trained to come straight from the pasture into her stall without requiring a lead rope.

Tuesday is probably one of the fastest horses I have ever seen (and I have several racing thoroughbreds on my farm). She would definitely excel in x-country or eventing, maybe barrel racing or jumping that requires speed and accuracy.

When this beauty has the mileage, she will be priceless! If you are looking for a super, sweet, affectionate, beautiful and talented mare to finish in your discipline, then Tuesday is your girl.

Extremely easy to catch - just call her name and she comes straight to the gate. She is up to date on all vaccinations with negative coggins, farrier, dental and worming.

Can transport within state of Florida. $1.75/Mile

All of our horses are sold with contract that states if the relationship with the horse does not work out, the horse will be returned to Horses in Harmony. Our horses welfare will remain paramount for the rest of their years.

15.2HH Purebred Lipizzaner Gelding, 28 Years Old. Don't let the age fool you - this horse acts like a well-schooled horse in his prime. This one is for you dressage divas out there. Due to his age, he cannot be ridden too long, nor very hard. This schoolmaster loves his audience, and he loves to show off his moves. An ex-upper level horse that can give you the feel for canter pirhouettes, piaffe and passage for a few minutes. He would be an awesome teacher for a serious training level/first level competitor. His age and his limitations MUST be respected. This is an incredible opportunity for someone who lives for dressage but cannot afford a schoolmaster. His riding MUST be limited to 3-4 x week and for no longer than 30 minutes each time (without pushing him to discomfort). He loves nothing better than to be pampered - grooming, bathing, hanging out with him ... and non-stop treats!! This is a rare, amazing, incredible and gentle purebred lipizzan - any dressage rider will appreciate this opportunity. APPROVED LESSEE ONLY! On Site Lease: $250 Per Month + $500 Per Month Full Board.

More information, plus pictures and video, will only be available to serious enquirers. For the utmost welfare of the horse, I will need to know that you do have the experience requested, the time to commit and the ability to keep up all costs involved with keeping a horse (such as supplements, vet, farrier, dental).

This is why leasing a horse can sometimes be a good opportunity prior to investing into purchasing a horse. It is a great reality check if you were not prepared for the time, hard work and costs involved in owning a horse.

15.1HH Percheron x QH Gelding, Bay. 6 Years Old. Still a little green and will give anything a try! Great heart, great mind and a fun, happy, affectionate chap who is truly like a huge lab! He does not really care for jumping (yet!).. although he looks like a super hunter. Expressive movements when he is working correctly. Adores trail riding. Eventually will be an awesome family horse.

No horse can be guaranteed "bombproof", but this horse is as close as you can get. At only 6 years old, he will be indispensable by the time he has all of his mileage. A huge character who would likely excel as a trick horse, parade horse or even drill team. Anything that involves lots of attention, a variety of work and lots of fun is just what he needs. He has popped over some cavalettis, he has been given some basic dressage training and is schooling at training level right now. Nothing lights his fire more than trail riding though ... he can tend to put on the brakes when working on the schooling arena, but needs no encouragement on a trail.

He has never bucked with me, he occasionally will throw a little flying change into the canter and switch out his leads. This should disappear as his training continues. He has definitely never taken off or bolted with me. I have always trail ridden him alone - and whilst he enjoys a good gallop, he has always stayed with me. A small half-halt will bring him right back. We have had a pack of dogs run out to him, several circling his feet and barking aggressively, a smaller dog actually tried to bite his ankles. Gibson just stopped dead and waited for me to show him what to do. I asked him to go forward and although he was anxious, he obediently did as I asked him. Typically, if he is startled, he will stop and have a good stare - I will ask him to move forward and he has always obeyed.

The cutest expression you have ever seen - he is a heart-stealer and a barn favorite. He is very prone to summer sores - so he needs additional care with fly control.

Stands for clip, bathing, grooming and farrier. He is very forward going and loves to trot and canter (but not take off). Definitely not a fast horse. Super comfortable due to his width. Always looks scruffy and like he is up to mischief. That is his personality!! Surprisingly expressive movements. I truly adore this horse - he is fun and he needs to be in a family environment rather than a training and rehabilitation facility. He is also very smart .. but has some of that draft horse stubborness, too. He reminds me of a pony with his mentality -- he can be exasperating when he is wanting to play games, but he has a way to win you over with his cute looks, charm and affection.

No bite or kick in this chap. He is a dominant personality in the pasture.

This is a horse that will be quiet enough and strong enough for Dad, fun and forward for Mom, attentive and patient enough for kids! Although, he is still young and this must be taken into consideration - he will need more mileage before he is absolutely dead-broke. Ready to finish your way.

He will only go to an approved home that will adore his cheeky personality and offer him a loving, caring and permanent home. Videos and photos available to serious buyers only. Very, very reluctant sale.

He is up to date with vaccinations and has negative coggins, farrier, dental and worming.

Can transport within state of Florida. $1.75/Mile.

All of our horses are adopted outwith contract that states if the relationship with the horse does not work out, the horse will be returned to Horses in Harmony. Our horses welfare will remain paramount for the rest of their years.

"Carlinia Kim" - 16.1HH, 5 Year Old, Chestnut Thoroughbred Mare, All the chrome with a perfect blaze and four high white socks! Quiet and Sweet. This young girl is so patient, willing to learn and steady that she will probably be ''grandma safe'' by the time she is finished. She is green broke at this time but she is starting on her 60 days training and her price will increase accordingly. She would make a very pretty show-horse or a super broodmare. Will make a lovely dressage horse, too. Her markings are PERFECT! She has no soundness issues. This type of mind and eagerness to learn and please makes this doll worth her weight in gold. Definitely would make a super family horse later on in her career. A horse as beautiful as Sundance (inside and out) comes along once in a lifetime. She will definitely give anything the good old ''college try''. She has loaded in my trailer without a problem, faced a small cavaletti cautiously but willingly. She is Jockey Club Registered. She was prepped for the racetrack but never ran.

This will be a very, VERY, reluctant sale and only to an approved home. As her training as continued, Sundance has excelled. She is extremely steady, safe and comfortable. I have had novice riders on her, and she remains patient and forgiving. She has not spooked at anything since I have had her, even motorcycles without mufflers on their exhausts or cars backfiring (she had a rider on her when both of this situations occured and she did not miss a step). She loves being groomed and pampered, she stands for vet, farrier, grooming and bathing. You will never have to guess when she is in heat because she makes that extremely obvious - but she can still be ridden and she will pay attention during these times. She is not marish at ALL! I have never seen this beauty pin her ears. Absolutely no bite, kick, buck or rear in her. She has never attempted to bolt either. I cannot say enough about this incredible horse. She is perfect for any level rider, most disciplines (although speed is not her greatest asset - she is far too laid back and relaxed for that!), she will most likely make an exceptional broodmare. She is one of the calmest youngsters I have ever come across and extremely quiet to handle. If you have been holding out for your dreamhorse, Sundance is probably the answer!

She is up to date on her vaccinations with negative coggins, dental, farrier and worming.

Can transport within the state of Florida at the rate of $1.75/Mile.

Will only sell Sundance to the perfect home, where she will be guaranteed love, excellent care and attention. Videos and photos available for serious buyers only. Sundance is sold with a contract that states if the relationship with the horse does not work out, the horse will be sold back to Horses in Harmony. Sundance's welfare will remain paramount for the rest of her years. For more information, photos and video, please email!

**Update: Due to an influx of rescue horses, we have drastically reduced Sundance's asking price for a faster sale. The proceeds from her sale will go directly toward medical, feed and farrier bills for the rescue horses that have just been brought in ***

SALE PRICE: Reduced From $15,000 to $9,995.

On occasion, I will consider taking on a consignment horse on behalf of an owner who may not have the resources (time, space, etc) to continue to exercise or train the horse.

With this program, I hope to build a reputation of trust with BUYERS, that I offer HONEST representations of horses I advertise for sale in safety, usability, skill level, over all 'type', etc. therefore I do not work with horses that have any dangerous vices or serious health or lameness issues.

Depending on the horse there may be a minimum required stay; young green horses may be required to stay up to 3 months to gain marketable skills, while older horses simply needing exercising or tuning up may need only 1 month. During the horses stay with me, a web page with a photo and video presentation will be made, along with an honest written description and evaluation of the horse's physical traits, skills and disposition. Horses kept here for extended periods can be hauled out to shows, trails or other such events for experience. These services include my participation in presenting the horse to prospective buyers and being present during any pre-purchase vet/farrier exams. Horses MUST be evaluated to participate in this program - we will not work with horses who have dangerous vices / dispositions as we are marketing to family, amateur, novice and lower level riders/owners.

I will screen the horses I accept into this program, and I will only accept a limited number of horses at any given time. I want to develop a good reputation that the horses for sale here are 'exactly as described' and that buyer and seller have a good experience. Please visit my CONSIGNMENT page to learn more.

If you need to just relinquish your horse - please let me know before the situation gets worse for you and your precious horse.
