Only rich people own horses With the stock market rising and falling like a roller coaster, I worry not. I did not invest in that type of stock. My day begins with the nickering of horses. As I walk to the pastures, their call beckons me closer. I see their figures emerge ghostlike in the misty morning fog. I can’t wait to get to them, to touch their glossy coats, to bury my head in their silky manes and breathe in their scent. As the sun begins cascading through the trees it becomes obvious. What that person didn't know was Horses are what make my life rich If you are looking to enrich your life with a horse we invite you to look at our SALES LIST and see if we have something that piques your interest.

 | We welcome you to consider our Arabian stallion, DOUBLE TSTANDARD for your mare in 2009. With so many stallions available today your question might be, why select Double Tstandard? Quite simply the answer is.... his foals. There is a certain thread that weaves through his get. They are elegant in stature, graceful in motion and no matter what the breed of the mare, the foals are consistently stamped with his distinct Arabian type. While a horse’s beauty may take your breath away, correct confirmation and a willing attitude are necessary for one to be useful. Double Tstandard’s foals have the temperament to learn quickly and bond deeply plus they have the confirmation to be blue ribbon winners. Their charismatic personalities endear them to everyone they meet. They are purchased without hesitation by their new owners. |
| In 2007 these two ladies made their show ring debuts. At the local level his then 6 month old Half Arabian Half Saddlebred filly RCCR DOUBLE PIROUETTE won her weanling halter class. She also garnered Reserve Champion in her division, competing against all genders of purebred and half Arabians. She danced around the ring with the elegance of a ballerina, the sparkle of a show horse, and although it was her first time away from home, she exhibited the grace of a seasoned pro. Now in 2008, she is growing into a statuesque beauty, remarkably standing over 15 hands. Pirouette has the refinement of an Arabian and the grace of a Saddlebred. She is a perfect combination of the two breeds. RCCR DOUBLE PRECIOUS began her show career in 2007 in Class A competition. Owned by Darlene Stockton, this mare was shown against stiff competition and won the Sport Horse In Hand class. With a quick tack change she returned to the very next class, Sport Horse Under Saddle, and was pinned with another blue ribbon. All this at the tender age of four. Precious continues to show in Class A and qualified for Regionals in 2008. Region 9 is noted for having some of the stiffest competition in the Sport Horse divisions and yet when taken into the ring by an amateur Precious garnered Top 5 honors in both of her Sport Horse in Hand classes! We are so excited for Darlene and her beautiful Double Tstandard daughter, RCCR Double Precious. |   photo credit Kathy Starustka

THE MIRACLE OF BIRTH We are vested in each and every mare that is bred to Double Tstandard. From conception to foaling we strive to help you through each step. One of the most wonderful memories I have is of sitting with a mare owner on foal-watch. As we sat in lawn chairs the full moon lit the paddock with an ethereal glow. Giddy with lack of sleep we kept each other awake by chatting about our favorite subject, horses. At 3 in the morning with a warm summer breeze gently blowing her mane, Aladdinn’s Lady lay down and we quietly walked to her side, flashlight and foaling kit in hand. The foaling went smoothly with God’s help, and we watched as the miracle of birth unfolded. Attending the birth of Aladdinn's Foxy Lady will be one memory I will cherish forever. |  ALADDINN'S FOXY LADY shown here the following year, 2006. |
