Friesian adverts/scams27th January 2014
It is a reoccurring issue that my adverts and pictures are used by others predominantly to advertise horses who are not owned by the person who has placed the advert. I have been made aware by more people today that again my pictures and/or adverts are being used to sell or loan Friesians. I would […]
BD Affiliated Friesians3rd January 2014
I have been following the progress of some of the Friesians who have been out competing in affiliated dressage last year. It is encouraging to see more Friesian owners getting into the sport. Some of those who have been out doing well over the last few years include; Danielle Henderson-Holding with her mare Renske, […]

Festive Friesian Fun16th December 2013
We all had a fabulous time yesterday on our Christmas fancy dress ride. It is quite a sight and sound to have ten Friesians dressed up and trotting along together. The horses all enjoyed themselves, the humans enjoyed themselves, so a good day was had by all! Merry Christmas everyone!
Alaina and Nero27th November 2013
“Hey Janine, I just wanted to send you a wee update on how Nero is doing. I can honestly say I have never met a horse as lovely. He is anything I could ever wish for in a horse, and more. He behaves impeccably no matter what we throw at him, whether a wee trailer, […]

Friesian Horse Club UK19th November 2013
A short while ago I added a post to the Friesians Scotland website and facebook page regarding getting started with your Friesian in Britain.

The versatile Friesian12th October 2013
“How versatile is the Friesian and what are they capable of” The truth is, this breed is proving it’s self to be very versatile. What once was a breed used to pull ploughs on the farm, then became best known as carriage driving horses and now proving themselves as dressage, endurance and even jumping horses. In the UK […]

“Off The Beaten Track Rides” is a fantastic little place in Carlisle, Cumbria where you can take your own horse on holiday with you. This weekend a group of six of us took our Friesians there and we had the most amazing weekend! I took my little mare, Cornelia and were joined by six former residents of Friesians Scotland […]

I think a lot of Friesian horse owners would find it an eye opener, we all tend to compare […]
