This page is
dedicated to the training process of some of the young horses here at
Diamond H Quarter Horses. Some of these horses are currently being
offered for sale, others are not. However all of these horses have
been bred, born, raised and trained right here unless otherwise noted.
It is my intention for each horse to eventually have their own individual
training "blog pages" complete with pictures and hopefully video clips as
well. This will allow for the training process on each animal to be
followed step by step. If you have any questions regarding any of
the horses found on this page, just drop us an
email
and we will be happy to visit with you. |

2003 Palomino Mare x
Hiedes Whitey |
"Schnapps" is a very willing and enjoyable
youngster to work with and has taken every thing in stride.
Her ground work continues to improve as well as her efforts under
saddle with a rider. She is naturally very light and is
becoming more and more responsive to the rider's seat and leg
cues. This little mare is also a "cow huntin' machine"!
This mare is NOT being
offered for sale.

2003 Iron Gray Stallion x
Hiedes Whitey |
"Zane" is a beautiful headed yet still very
masculine young stallion that is exhibits a great deal of eye
appeal and is showing fantastic timing and athletic quality.
He displays a powerful stride without being rough or choppy in his
execution of movement. He is a very balanced and relaxed
mover that has done well with his ground and round pen work.
He is quiet and focused while being worked under saddle and makes
a genuine effort to understand the commands given to him. Zane is
being offered for sale.

2003 Dun Stallion x
Passionate Stripe |
This young stallion earned his name as a very young age when it
seemed that no matter what he did, he did it with STYLE. He
is agile, ultra athletic, is a super light touch and is very
responsive. This is a show/stallion prospect deluxe.
Look for new up-to-date pictures when his individual blog page is
up. This stallion is also being
offered for sale.

 |
|
2004 Dun/Gray Gelding x
Hiedes Whitey |
UPDATE - "Q" has been
sold to Rick and Jeanette Bates of Texas. He will
remain here for a while longer to further his training.
"Q" as you can see from the picture on the right,
travels with a very level topline and has a long, sweeping stride.
This coming 2-yr-old gelding has done very well in his initial ground
training and will soon begin further work in the round pen. He
has been lunged and has had a good deal of sacking out and rope work
done with him. He displays a very calm, quiet, accepting
demeanor and learns quickly. His movement and carriage would
indicate he could work well as both a western and an english horse.
This young gelding is being offered for sale.

2003 Grullo Gelding x
Super Smooth Zeb |
UPDATE - Zeb has been
sold to Rick and Jeanette Bates of Texas. He will
remain here for a while longer to further his training.
UPDATE - Zeb is
now in Texas at his new home and is getting settled in.
This is one of the softest strided
horses I have ever seen, he looks at times as though his feet do
not even make contact with the ground but rather hover just above
the surface before he picks them up again for the next stride.
Zeb had quite a bit of ground work and limited riding over the
summer and fall of 2005. We will be continuing his training
as weather permits. This is a very nice young gelding that
is loaded with potential and ability.

2003 Pale Palomino
Gelding x Chico Bueno Bar |
"Roo" is a very elegant and fluid mover with a
super attitude towards the learning process. This colt
literally went to sleep during the sacking out process of his
first saddling! From there on it has been smooth sailing.
He is extremely responsive, intelligent, and challenges me to
remember to ask for things softly as he has proven to be super
LIGHT. I think the neatest thing about this colt is just his
overall "horsenality". He is really animated in his facial
expressions and can convey such a variety of emotions, he would
sure give the famous Mr Ed a run for his money!
This gelding is NOT
being offered for sale.

Rodeo |
|
2002 Bay Gelding x Chico
Bueno Bar |
"Rodeo" is the one I call my "little engine
that could", he has a ton of heart and big motor with a desire to
perform. He is a real team player and for the most part is
good to focus and give 110%. I have enjoyed being a part of
the process of bringing this colt along from the day he struggled
free of the birth sack to the horse he is developing into.
He is a real trooper and deserves lots of hugs and kudos from his
human partner.
Rodeo is NOT being
offered for sale.

2004 Palomino Gelding x
Striking Kings Gold |
"Hershey" will be two soon and will begin learning what it is all
about to be a "horse". He and his buddy
"Q" have been living the life of "kiddos" for the most part up
till now, but soon they will both be brought into a training
program that will take them two to three years to complete.
After they have graduated they will be ready for the show ring,
arena, ranch, or be a solid, consistent pleasure and family horse.
As you can see from the picture to the right, even as a weanling
this colt has shown power in his hind quarters as well as a level
and even distribution of muscle and mass throughout the balance of
his body.
This gelding is not being offered for sale at this time
but will be listed at a later date after he has had some
training.
