This is an unofficial announcement presenting an absolutely exquisite stallion acquired from one of the best international breeders of quality Arabians.

We are proud to welcome Obsidian Dream S, who has been my lovely dark secret for a while now, and what a Dream he is!!

One of his sisters has sold to Poland and another sister has sold to France.

Pictured as a yearling:



A pedigree to die for:
And coming from prepotent, sought after bloodlines..

15.1 as a 2 year old.







A more formal announcement and others related to this one will come later. I couldn't torture you all any longer..lol

A little less I think, but hey-- we need to add a few stalls anyway for the expanding herd, so what's a few more?? LOL

You're less than half an hour from Newberry, where some of the large Arabian horse shows are held.

Canterbury Equestrian Showplace

We will be debuting Dream next year, as well as a few other horses I own, so you can conceivably pop over and meet him for yourself!! Might even take the babies over just to get them used to show grounds..

Wouldn't THAT be fun?? :clap:

I will keep everyone appraised of future show plans. Thank you all for your interest and being so supportive. I don't expect much for 1st shows, but we'll see what happens. :)

Yes we plan to be at Regionals in Perry as things stand now. I would love to meet you Celeste! You are welcome anytime here and are welcome to stay with me- have a big home with extra bedrooms..:wink:

OMG I love the milk mustache! LOL

Understand about the pictures. Zoot got caught out in the massive rain we had this morning. Ended up looking like a half-drowned rat :(

This is what I love about him; type AND substance. I've searched and it's hard to find a good balance of both. If you check out Sapphire Farms' site, you'll see that Sue Wells consistently produces an excellent balance of both, while breeding calm, tractable horses. I am amazed daily how obedient and laid back Dream is. Even around mares in season, he always defers to his human for direction. We regularly walk and work near the mares, and he keeps his attention on me. He has quite a lot of self-control for a young man, but he has been/is being trained well, so that surely lays a great foundation.
Temperament is one of the most important factors for me, and this guy's got it in spades.

I know-I know. I am such a terrible person posting these pics and making you all suffer so. You are helpless against my powers--sucking you into my evil plot to like my horses and be tortured accordingly.. :rofl: You have no will of your own ya know..

I KNOW you have girls that would rock that jibbah.. I've seen one, and that's good enough for me!! Remember-- anytime you want to visit-- you have a standing invitation. :wink:

I think we could have a very mutually beneficial business arrangement in the future..:clap:

LOL- ok-- you weren't going to breed your mare Celeste. Did that help??

Buuuuuuuuutt-- if you were-- there'll be a representation arriving shortly that you could at least look at..for an informed decision of course.. ;)

BAHA ... I get to look and drool and sigh all over Dru's horses with OUT the worry. Mine's a gelding! Although Dru may be coming up short on a couple chesnut mares ... oh and a young chestnut stallion too. Just sayin. I will have to do my part in making sure there isn't too much beauty in one spot.

Druydess how is the other half of that very nice filly bred?
Took my breath away looking at her.
If one of the State run studs bought her I will be on a plane to Florida within a couple of months to view Dream in person.
One of the reason I bought my stallion in the first place was my insistance on personally viewing any stallion I breed my mares to.
Add the travel cost to stud and vet fees and breeding becomes a very expensive venture. Shalom

Stunning isn't she?? She went to her first show and won her class, then went Junior Champion Mare over the two year olds.

She shares the same Dam with Dream: Lr Spitten Image Arabian

This mare consistently outproduces herself, passing on type and substance as well. Another daughter by this Dam was exported to France:



The sire of the first filly is : The Sabbath S Arabian

The sire of the second is:Thee Onyx Arabian

This illustrates the consistency in what this mare produces.
You can see more here: Sapphire Farms - Sales List

I'm not sure whether it's a state-run stud who bought her, but I'll PM you a link to them. I do not blame you for wanting to see a potential stud in person; I feel the same way. It can get expensive. It's very encouraging that Dream inspires you to want to take that step. In the future, you'll be able to see what he produces and that may make it easier for you to plan accordingly, either way. Perhaps planning a semi-vacation in Florida in the future may make it a bit easier. I can at least save you hotel and food costs! :wink:
