In Memory of our Beloved 'Angel' |
| Our farm Nanny passed away Boxing
Day this year (o6). She will be missed by her many equine & human
friends. She was a constant companion to our foals during weaning and
helped us nurse orphan foals at more than one farm.
Loved by many for her unique personality, she will be difficult to replace. The barns are not the same without her. God Bless Angel !

Kudos to~ Ambassador Jamaal sp & Eddy |
We made it there! We qualified. We made the
judges cards, but sadly not the cut... We are thrilled to have
gotten as far as we did with a stallion who has only been under
saddle such a short time. Our thanks go out to his trainer Eddy
Thompson for working so hard this past year and getting so
far..
Update: the judge that was the hardest to please- Dearth is who's card we made! Watch for us in a return engagement in Hunter Pleasure next year! |

Tulip Arabian Horse Festival June 4-6, 2005 (C) Photo courtesy of SKW Photography |
What a showing for the Willowsprings owned horses at the Tulip Festival in Kemptville, Ontario. Willowsprings brought home the following Championship wins . . .
Our dear Calvin Klein wowed the crowd again under the guidance of Natasha Buss, together, this pair amassed some pretty neat show wins; Champion Hunter Pleasure Open (2nd time for this win - ), Reserve Hunter Pleasure Champion ATR, 2nd in the Native Costume Class, 1st in the Open Hunter, and 3rd in the Amateur Hunter. The beautiful, RA Vadaar, turned heads where ever he went taking home the 1st Place Gelding Halter title and then going on to win the Gelding Halter Championship, he later proved form to function is feasible being named Reserve Champion Hunter AATR. Our beautiful Padrons Psyche son, Psyitation, came out with only months of coming to Canada and took home the red ribbon in the Western Pleasure Open class and later taking the red neck ribbon in the Championship class. Beautifully ridden by Edwyn Thompson. |
Finger Lakes Arabian Summer Festival June 24-26, 2005 (C) Photo courtesy of SKW Photography |
Besides the 110 degree weather and the steaming pavement at the New York State Fairgrounds in Syracuse, NY was a show to remember! RA Vadaar took home the blue ribbon in the extremely difficult Purebred Hunter Pleasure AATR Class and took a 6th place out of 19 in the Hunter Pleasure for the Geldings beating out several Regional and National winning Hunters. Psyitation took home a 3rd place in the deep Western Pleasure Championship class with Edwyn Thompson. |
