New Foals
We're so pleased to introduce Lux and Orion to you! Born within days of each other this month, they are already great playmates and showing lots of promise. Lux is the colt of Clononeen Layla, the beautiful new mare we brought in this Spring. Lux is showing all the strength, loving character, and colouring of his Sire Clononeen Tumbleweed. We've included one of our favourite shots of him here, but make sure you stop by our site to see more.
Orion is the colt of Clononeen Celestial, a striking beauty also new to us this spring. His playful character, predominantly white colouring with mahogany brown markings and exceptional conformation has already made him a favourite with many! Be sure to keep an eye on him as we're sure he's going to go fast! |

New Sales
We've added a few new faces to our "For Sale" page, Lux and Orion, which you saw above, as well as Beauty, our fabulous filly from 2008, and one of our own brood mares, Clononeen Miss Pio.
Beauty was born later in the breeding season last year from Clononeen Violet and Clononeen Silky Boy. She is growing up fast with great mane, feather and tail, and is one of our favourites due to her gentle nature and love of human companionship. Check out our updated pictures of her and see if she doesn't win your heart!
It was a hard decision indeed to put Miss Pio on the sale page. Her supermodel colouring and fabulous foal Riot, paired with her own great bloodlines made it hard to even consider parting with her. We have decided to concentrate on a larger Gypsy Cob to speak to the North American market, and as there is a definite lack of mature brood mares in Canada, we are sure she will go to a good home soon. Miss Pio is presently in foal to our very own Clononeen Tullamore Dew. At 15 hh, he's sure to add some height into the mix and produce a very lovely foal with Miss Pio.

New Homes
Our very own Prince is leaving us for his new home. He is going to Northern Lights Ranch (in Missouri) and will be very well looked after we're sure by Tara. She is so excited she already has a page set up for him on her website - check it out! www.northernlightsranch.net We're very glad for her, and know that Prince is going to enjoy his new surroundings. |

New Gallery Addition
We're very proud to add a new photo artist to our Gallery page, our own youngest member of the Nygaard family. Fallon contributes to a new perspective of life on the ranch, adding interest and life through the use of her imagination and camera angles. Here are a couple of our favourites, and we encourage you to drop by Our Horses Page Photo Gallery to see more! |
