Back in Virginia after 6 Weeks in Florida

Now that we are safely back in Virginia after 6 weeks in Florida, I want to take a moment to talk about the team! None of this is possible without our amazing team. I want to wholeheartedly every one of you who contributes to our success.

Special mention to Victor Piña, who kept the horses and Farm at home in top shape while we went to Florida. Also to Taylor O’Connor who joined us this season teaching while Brett traveled south.

Thank you to Sue Jarboe, who kept us laughing and smiling through the chaos that was winter circuit.

Thank you to our fantastic customers for their support and trust.

And thank you to our vets, farriers, braiders, and therapy specialists who keep our horses happy and healthy.

Congratulations Grace and Rachel!

It is with great pleasure and excitement that we congratulate Grace and Rachel Holt on their new partnership with ‘My Type’! Bowie will be missed by the PL family, but we are thrilled that he found such a loving new home!

Special thanks to Angela Bollinger of Oak View Equestrian.
