Blue Suede Horse Shoes






You might be shocked to learn this, but we have a Friesian at our facility! This week I wanted to introduce you to Tiburon a.k.a.“Elvis”, our Friesian gelding. He’s a gentle giant and a favorite in the barn. Elvis came to us as a carriage horse almost three years ago and only knew how to trot. His trainer Lori has been working with him since coming here and look how far he’s come! Lori and Elvis are a fantastic team and he has learned so much with her. Elvis has the sweetest personality and welcomes any kind of pats and rubs. We’re really lucky to have such a great Friesian here. Maybe one day he’ll have his own solo in our show on the road!

In other news, our new baby “Barbana” is doing great! She’s warmed up to us and has learned that she LOVES belly rubs. I try to visit her once a day so that she gets used to being handled by humans. She’s becoming more independent while running around the pasture with her mom. She’s really curious about meeting the other mares in the neighboring pastures, and mom isn’t too happy about it! The next step to conquer with Barbana… the halter! She’s had it on once, but isn’t thrilled about it so far. She’s made it a game to try to rub the halter off onto mom!

Our First Blog!








Welcome to The "World Famous" Lipizzaner Stallions Blog! We are located in Central Florida and run a private facility where we train the future stars of our "World Famous" Lipizzaner Stallion Show! You can visit our web page to read about the tour, learn about our company "White Stallion Productions" and learn the history of the Lipizzaner breed: http://www.Lipizzaner.com

For this first blog, I just wanted to introduce myself and give a little introduction as to what is to come. My name is Kat and I work for White Stallion Productions (Above is a picture of me on one of our Andalusian Stallions). I will be posting weekly blogs on happenings at our home base here in Florida. You can look forward to reading about new babies, training of future stars in our show, and introductions to horses here. Since our facility is not open to the public, this is a special look into our family here at White Stallion Productions. We are so proud of all of our horses and I'm sure you will love to hear about them as well. Speaking of, I'd love to introduce you to our newest addition. On April 5th we had a new foal born, her name is "Barbana" (see above). I'll post some more pictures of her next week! Come back and check it out! Do you guys have any suggestions as to what you would like to see on here? Let me know!
