My next dressage partner was a high spirited and loving felding named Navian.  with several months of working together, Navian and I won two regional championships!  I am currently competing in the FEI Juniors on a borrowed horse named Nice Catch.  Together we were 2nd at Dressage at Devon in Equitation and are trying to make the 2005 Junior Dressage Team.  I truly believe the victories I have enjoyed and
continue to enjoy are due to the foundation Lisa and Pug provided.  I look forward to future triumphs and attaining more of my goals.  I will always be grateful that Lisa opened my eyes to dressage.

LUZERN

Luzern is a wonderful horse.  I am very much looking forward to our future partnership.  Thank you Lisa for helping me find my dream horse.

JET BLUE - TRISHA

They are doing great together.  Trisha just loves him and he has a piece of all our hearts already.  He is so sweet.  We are hoping to take him to Cool August Nights to school or show him.

DARWIN

JOANNE WHITE, DRESSAGE TRAINER, OHIO

With Lisa's help I was very fortunate to find Darwin in Florida.  I've had him three years now and I must say he is the most wonderful horse I've ever owned.  Lisa really took the time to show me horses that fit my needs and wants.  At the time of Darwin's vetting the vet commented that "Lisa knows where every good horse in Florida is".
I believe he was right!

PUG MA HONE

AMANDA STEARNS, WEST PALM BEACH, FL
2003 REGIONAL CHAMPIONS

At the age of 8 Lisa Wallace introduced me to the beautiful world of dressage!  She found my first dressage horse schoolmaster, Pug Ma hone, who at age 20 had so much knowledge and expertise.  Combined with Lisa's patient instruction we became an impressive team.  Pug and I completed sucessfuly for five years, winning high point awards and several regional titles.

NAVIAN

We are so thankful to have a horse like Sidney!  His personality is so endearing - everyone loves him!  We appreciate your help in working
us through the process of detemining whether or not he was the right
fit for my daughter - well he certainly is!!  Kristen's love for him is already off the charts and she is so proud that he is hers.

PRINTER

FREDERICA LOFQUIST

Thank you again for helping me find Printer.  I am obsolutely delighted with him and look forward to many years of working together.  I can't tell you how much i look forward to seeing him everyday.

RADETZKY

JILL SCHRIBER (CALIFORNIA)

I just want to thank you again SOOO much for Radetzky!  I love him!  I get so excited everytime I ride him.  He is so sweet and an easy learner.  I always get comments on his looks - he may be the best looking horse in our barn and we have Olympic level horses there.

"I'M JUST CALLING TO SAY HOW MUCH
I LOVE MY NEW HORSE"!

I have been meaning to thank you again for helping us find Stella last January. Madeleine and Stella are made for one another. Madeleine has taken Stella to several Pony Club rallies, Pony Club camp in Moorpark, cross country schooling in Moorpark and Tehachapi as well as local dressage and Hunter Jumper shows in Las Vegas. They recently went to their first 3 Day Event together at Ramtap in Fresno.

Stella loves cross country and Madeleine is having so much fun with her. We didn't think we wanted another mare but they are great together.

STELLA - MADELEINE

Congratulations to Jackie!
Have a great time with your new sweetheart.

Every time i think of Anthem I can't keep from saying "Oh my
gosh, I can't believe he's mine".  Everybody at the barn says
how lucky i am and how beautiful and sweet he is.  He is my
dream horse.  Thank you Lisa for helping me find him and
helping me get him.

ANTHEM - SHIRLEY

My new horse Leopold is quite tall and fine
Those big brown eyes so generous and kind
His shinny coat gleams brightly in the sun
Gaits so light, passage and piaff are fun
How lucky I am to have this graceful stead
A horse so perfect, to fit my every need

Hi Lisa...do you remember Toby, Lena Davis's horse that I bought almost 3 years ago in S. California? Well, I thought you'd like to see a very recent photo of him, taken just last wk.end at a big show. He continues to be wonderful and I'm so happy you took us to see him that day. We're doing 3rd level now and the judges all love him. Sooo, thank you again for that fateful introduction!
Cheers,
Paula.

Congratulations Daniel

 

Congratulations Tracy

Jackson grew up in Arizona and got her start in dressage
with an unlikely partner, a 15.2-hand Tennessee Walker-
Quarter Horse mare named Maxine. The two competed
through Prix St. Georges, and Jackson’s To The Max Farm in
Cave Creek, Ariz., is named in honor of Maxine.
Though she said it can be frustrating when the nearest CDI
is at least seven hours away, Jackson, who rides with Charlotte
Bredahl-Baker and Steffen Peters and has competed at the
Grand Prix level, has no plans to relocate to a more conventional
region of the country.
“I did spend the two weeks out there trying to convince
my husband we should move to the East Coast,” she joked.
“But my family is here, and my husband’s family is here. I have
a great client base, just the best amateurs to work with out
here. It’s a group you wake up happy to see every day. We’ll
just keep traveling and trying to improve.

Cyndi Jackson and Strauss made the journey to Gladstone,
N.J., from Arizona and finished ninth in the Collecting Gaits
Farm/USEF National Intermediaire I Championship.
