Nitika was my first Friesian cross, and what a gal she is. You can see her story under Friesian Sport Horse Sold. She floats, she has energy, she is powerful and she has a quiet presence.

Metina, my second Friesian cross was born May 12, 2007 sired by a Friesian stallion named Matthijs R.S, (Jorrit 363 x Ouke 313) and with Mekeezun as her dame. He can be seen at www.annabellastables.com. Metina means "Born Under The Rising Moon" in a First Nations language. She has a small half moon on her forehead, the only white on her. Metina has a lot of her sire in her, lots of hair, her mane and tail are thick and long, and her legs are also very thick and strong. Metina as a sweet personality and even though her dame died before she was 2 months old, Metina has come along quickly and is very balanced and quiet. She was a star at her inspection, getting a 7.2/8, and had the crowd all leaning forward when she trotted around the arena. She is now for sale for the perfect person who wishes to start their own Friesian look alike. For more info please click on this page. Friesian sport filly for sale

Avita arrived at Polecat Paints and Friesians on November 20th, 2008 after a 4 day ride in a slant load trailer. She stayed overnight in Buffalo and was treated with great kindness. On the following day Avita was running around in her own paddock meeting the boys and girls on the farm. Avita was born on May 17 2000 and is registered with FHANA and CFHA. Her registered name is Athena. (Jurjen X Abel 344)

In the month of May 09, Avita started her training to be my trail horse. She took to the surcingle, bridle, bit and being driven with ease. After a week of driving off the halter she was switched to her bit. This caused a bit of problems, not sure which direction to turn when the reins were pulled, but after 3 lessons, she figured it out. Then the saddle was placed on her back, and it was a non-event. She walked and trotted well while being driven wearing the saddle. I rode her for the first time in July and she took to me being on her back with grace and dignity. In November of 2009 she went to Ron Derksen in Fort Erie for further training. This is the type of horse that makes a perfect trail horse, beautiful and smart!

She already has me wrapped around her hoof, she knows when I leave the house to come to the barn and meets me at the gate, looking for the treat she knows she will get.
