FEBRUARY SPECIAL for 2012/2013 $50 Discount If Booked This Month: The HAIR is real; the charisma is THERE; the temperament is FANTASTIC; the movement is SPECTACULAR... HESSEL IS NOT FOR SALE. Thank you to ALL of the people who keep contacting us about buying Hessel for $500 - but he is not for sale - he is standing at stud ONLY to all breeds of mares. Hessel is a purebred imported Friesian stallion by Preferent Friesian stallion Feitse. Hessel is big, he is gorgeous with a lovely head, eyes and neck AND he is absolutely a wonderful animal with an amazingly gentle disposition. Hessel is what people dream about when they think of "Friesian". He is a farm favorite with his lovely looks, mane/tail/forelock/feathering; his great temperament and his big and powerful movement. Hessel is already over 17 hands for those owners looking to breed for a taller Friesian sporthorse - yet he is very light on his feet and athletic. Hessel's trot is extremely smooth and fun to ride with a BIG uphill canter! His bloodlines are stellar, he is a future star and he will make you fall in LOVE with Friesians if you have not already done so. He is so lovely both inside and out that he deserves every opportunity to become a sire of Friesian sporthorses for the future. Hessel is pursuing a career as an exhibition and show horse with a stellar work ethic and a willingness to please and gaits under saddle are going to allow him to be very competitive in dressage. Every time he is worked he tries 100% and wants to please his trainer. Hessel is enjoying the atmosphere of a busy barn and while being tacked up or groomed you will find him with his head sticking out of his stall looking at all of the activity in the aisleways. This is a purebred Friesian stallion worth breeding your quality mare to and we remain VERY motivated to see as many Hessel foals out there as we can get. Thank you to everyone who has bred their mares the past several breeding seasons. This should be another fabulous foaling year with a wide variety of Hessel foals all throughout North America! Thank you to everyone who came and saw us at the 2008, 2009, 2010 Midwest Horse Fair and the MN Horse Expo performing with the Black Pearls Friesian Performance Group, Black Myth and the Friesian Heritage Group. Please watch for us also with the Black Myth Friesian Group performing at several benefits in the Midwest Area.
