Teeny Bikini has been our "rags to riches" mare.... with her arrival in February of 2007, we were unsure if we made the right decision to take her on.  She arrived crabby and antisocial and inconsistent under saddle. But her beauty and the thrill of a challenge kept us determined to do something special with this mare. We soon discovered that this mare had potential coming out of her ears!

    Teeny and Tara look forward to a great 2008!

10 TIME RMHA/KMSHA INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION/RESERVE CHAMPION MARE!

Teeny Bikini has been a consistent force in the show ring since she made her debut at the Kentucky Horse Park in April. She has won  more blue ribbons for us in this 2007 season than all of our other horses combined! From the Spring Premier Show to the Kentucky State Championship at Harrodsburg and the RMHA International Grand Championship.... Teeny Bikini has shown the world that she belongs in the spotlight!

Tara and Teeny have developed a special working relationship based on respect, consistency, and focus.  Together they have done great things! The highlight of their career together would be winning the 2007 RMHA International Amateur Trail Pleasure Grand Championship! (And to think.....they almost didn't go because they were unsure if they were good enough!)

 Teeny Bikini really proved her worth at the KMSHA International when she graciously took a complete novice rider to win the blue with all 3 judges agreeing on her first place win! Carrie Clark, from Minnesota, was thrilled to ride in her FIRST SHOW EVER on the talented Teeny to take the UNANIMOUS Blue Ribbon as well as Reserve Champion in the Novice Rider Championship. Carrie herself has ridden horse only a handful of times in the last 2 years! Congratulations to Carrie and Teeny!

Teeny is in foal by Maple's South Dakota Sundown and due to foal the end of March for a double registered show stopper baby.....
