Welcome to the site featuring Gail's Friesian   

 "Zoe S."


   This elegant 2007 FHANA/FPS registered filly by Iron Spring Farm's Goffert 369 Sport, now deceased, and out of Stonehedges' full papered Tsjeard 331 1st premie ster mare, Janka W. was the Christmas present to end all presents! Zoe has the looks and the movement that a Friesian is expected to have and has lots of mane, tail, and feathering, plus is a sensitive, intelligent extrovert with "boink" in her trot. Foaled March 6, 2007 Zoe was handled daily since birth by Elaine @ Stonehedges of Martha's Vineyard with Natural Horsemanship techniques, so she already has manners, leads, ponies, ties, bathes, clips, and  loads. With her lineage, we plan to present her for ster as a 3 YO, when she will then become our Friesian foundation broodmare.
  
Since 2005, I have been wanting to get another Friesian, but forced myself to hold off until I had sold my last 5 non-Friesian horses, so I was very anxious to start my search for that special filly and the last Friesian that I plan to purchase.
Zoe is registered with both FHANA [the Friesian Horse Association of North America] and the Dutch FPS [Friesch Paarden-Stamboek (Friesian studbook)], which is the world-wide authority on the Friesian horse and recognized as the European Mother Studbook of the Friesian Horse.
   During the winter, when I set up the indoor arena as a playground for the horses, Zoë can hardly wait to be turned out to play!

I adore this filly and have found out that she is certainly strong willed, extremely intelligent, and has impressive reasoning skills.
She has become an enthusiastic soccer player, loves to get up on the tractor tire table, and shows no fear of new objects, which she enjoys working over with tongue and hooves. Her latest antics include jumping barrels just because and standing in the path of the indoor impact sprinkler. My plans for the winter are to do some trick training, as this filly thrives on challenges, and then in the spring start with ground driving.
