IN LOVING MEMORY

FRANK and FRANCES MCCLURE
My grandparents- my best friends, my heroes, my inspiration. No one could love two people more, no one could miss two people more. FOREVER IN MY HEART AND MY MEMORY



ROBBYURI 1981-2007
Thankyou for your sweet nature and taking such good care of my kids- you were the joy of little Frankie's life. You are greatly loved and will be deeply missed. Though you lived a long life, we are never ready to say goodbye. REST IN PEACE


PWR PRINCE OF PRAISE 2003-2007 Though we only had the opportunity to love you for a short time, before you were tragically taken from us, your beauty and potential was endless, and you completely stole our hearts. You will be greatly missed.







WIDGET 1985-2007


You were my best buddy for 22 years, you will forever remain in my thoughts and in my heart. I miss you so much-until we meet again.


This side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When someone dies that has been especially close to someone here, they wait at Rainbow Bridge. All are restored to perfect whole health and vigor. So long gone from your life, but never absent from your heart. They are happy except for one small thing, they miss someone who was left behind.
The day WILL come, when they look into the distance, eyes bright and intent, their bodies begin to quiver, and they fly as fast as their legs will carry them, for you have been spotted- and when you and your special someone meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again, and together you cross Rainbow Bridge.

FOR SALE OR LEASE







































































We have quality horses AND quality horse items for sale or lease. Not being wealthy people ourselves- but still having the "need" to have horses, we try to keep our prices very reasonable, so that everyday working people can afford and love a high quality horse without the high quality cost- our low prices on some very nice horses, in no way reflects their quality. We have and work with many different breeds of horses-registered and unregistered. We have unstarted horses, finished horses, young horses, older horses, companion horses and show horses and everything in between. All of horses are well taken care of and could even be called "spoiled". All horses for sale will have a clear title or Brand Inspection and records for farrier services, vaccination records and deworming records as well as an honest reference to their training and disposition. We are completely against unnecessary medicating such as leg/hock injections etc. so there will be no need to worry about that. We strongly believe that a horse is companion for life and will honestly tell you everything we can about the horse you are interested in without painting a false picture just to make a sale. We also try and support new horse enthusiasts who arent quite ready to make a purchase, by offering certain horses for lease, some horses are allowed to leave our facility, and go to a facility of your choice, upon approval and some stipulations, and some are required to stay with us on- site. Pics will be available soon of the current horses available- keep checking back or email to see if we have what you are looking for. If we dont have what you are looking for, you can also check out the Horse Finding Service we offer on the following pages.

"It was easy to see right from the start that Nikki is very knowledgeable, experienced and genuinely loves what she does" -Kelly and Kari
"The atmosphere of the working area was amazing. You taught me how to think like a horse and work around a horse's fears in a positive, confidence building way. Riley came home a calmer, safer horse, and I thank you for that." -Kaci
"Jonnah is doing amazing! She is truly a different horse. It is such a joy to ride her! You have made such a difference in our lives! Your techniques, patience, understanding of horses and their owner's needs is amazing compared to these so-called top trainers. I will be looking for an excuse to work with you again!

ABOUT HORSIN AROUND





Horses are my life and my passion! My own horses are part of my family- a few more "children" if you will. My experience comes from 30 years of "hands on" with horses along with some formal training. My father is highly accredited staff vet with USDA, and also ran his own private clinic for many years, so growing up with him, I gained alot of knowledge and skills with horses as well as cats, dogs, rabbits, cows, skunks, racoons, birds, fish and list goes on and on. My parents also raised Quarter Horses at the CMD_Ranch in Nebraska for many years, turning out some great horses with predominant Two-Eyed Jack lines. I gained my passion for horses from my mother, who trained and showed a few of her own horses, and made sure that we had the privledge and knowledge of being around the wonderful animals growing up. I began at the ripe old age of 13 yrs old working for several Arabian trainers in Utah for many years, there I gained priceless experience and knowledge along with a love and admiration for the Arabian breed, who I now breed, show and train heavily, along with Half Arabians and Paint horses. I have studied or worked under, learned and continue to learn techniques from great trainers/instructors such as Richard Shrake, Jack Teague,Gary Martinez, Jim Hitt, Wally Post, Bob Hart Jr, Clinton Anderson and Pat Parelli. I am currently working through the Parelli levels of Natural Horsemanship and LOVE the concept of really being able to communicate and build a trusting relationship with horses.
I am a mentor with Arabian Horse Association as well as a Discovery Farm, where you can learn about the breed and are welcome to ask questions, come and meet some fabulous horses and become "addicted" as I have.
Along with my husband who is my best friend and partner, I ran one of the largest boarding and training facilities in Wyoming- Paradise Equestrian Center. At the facility we offered boarding, training, lessons, after-school horse camps for kids, breeding services, a horse motel, schooling shows, a riding club and many more equestrian related activities. Our adventures brought us to Colorado, where the weather was a little more condusive to the lifestyle we prefer. Here in Northern Colorado, we proudly stand two beautiful stallions- Arabian- PWR Prince of Praise and Paint- Shameless Dee Lite. I have several beautiful mares, and a couple very nice geldings as well, which my 7 yr old daughter and I show heavily on the local and Class A curcuit in disciplines ranging from Halter, Hunter/Jumper, Western Pleasure, Trail, Driving, Native Costume, English Saddleseat, and now reining-just to name a few.
I still offer and enjoy outside training/refreshers and show coaching as well as breeding, stallion management and dependable animal care for students and people around the area who are traveling or unable for some reason to do it themselves, and have many references as to my dependability and skills for the job. Please check out the horses and the stallions standing at stud for 2007/2008 and feel free to email me at horsinaround@wdemail.com with questions or to check availability and reserve a spot for training or lessons- join us for a little HORSIN' AROUND!!!
There are always other horses in the pasture, but for me, Dancer is the only one.
I watch him for a few minutes, a rustling piece of paper frightens him. He gallops away, kicking up his heels for the pure joy of it. When I whistle, he pricks up his ears, turns and trots towards me. With a low whiny, he stops for the piece of sugar he knows I have for him. I stroke his satiny neck, and for that moment, I really believe he belondgs to me. -ALETA HANSEN
