The Horses

Please enjoy the pictures we have provided of the horses who call Jobi Farm home, and those that have over the years!

Andeut (by Adios III o/o Keen Irony xx), 1994 Hanoverian Mare

This beautiful mare has produced one beautiful colt for us. Andie is also in training right now to develop as a riding horse. She was shown at Training Level dressage before we purchased her, however due to her sensitive nature she developed evasions and bad habits and was then retired to breeding, after which we bought her.

Her training is progressing and the biggest hurdle is developing her trust and breaking through her anxiety about having a rider aboard.

*Ceylon Obi (by Billionair xx o/o *J. Curly Camel), 2003 Thoroughbred / Curly Mare

This was a really nice cross between two very different horses. Ceylon's sire, a cremello Thoroughbred, and her dam, a chestnut Bashkir Curly, really came together to produce the best of their traits. Ceylon has the beautiful palomino coloring matched with a full coat of curls, a measurable amount of mane and tail, and what every breeder hopes for - a filly.

Ceylon has a beautiful personality, and has proven it by attending two Curly breed shows and two years at the Midwest Horse Fair in the Curly breed demo, all under the age of two years. Plans are to start this girl under saddle at the age of four or five and we look forward to the wonderful riding horse she promises to become.

Hespero Sin Par (by Hilachoso Cabal o/o Vinaza Sin Par), 1992 Paso Fino Gelding

"Jerry" was the very first horse to call Jobi Farm home. He is a beautiful Paso Fino gelding who has gone on to participate or compete in almost every discipline you can imagine. He is five gaited, performing the trot, pace, corto, largo and canter.

In 2001 Jerry foundered all around, luckily without rotation. He has since become sound again and is now back in training to reestablish his confidence.

*Ovanlig Obi (by VDL Orame o/o *BA's Misty Morn), 2004 Dutch Warmblood / Curly Gelding

O Man, as we like to call him, is the friendliest and yet most sensitive fella you could find. He is sired by VDL Orame, who is competing (and winning) Internationally in Show Jumping. We took a chance on breeding O Man's parents, with his sire standing a lanky 16.3 hands, and his dam a mere 14.1 hands, but really matched the two on personality. The result is this fabulous young gelding who's greatest wish in life right now is more hay, and lots of attention from people.

Scout Sweet Dynasty (by Holly's Dynasty o/o Flash's Sweety Bar), 1995 Paint Gelding

Scout is a love of a guy, his aim is to please his rider and he has a phenomenal mental connection with his rider, Erica Frei. He has become well trained in dressage, and performs several tricks including: laying down, rearing, bowing, kicking, striking, bucking, standing on a pedestal, Spanish Walk and Spanish Trot. He likes to make his presence known at horse fairs and shows by his unique antics (laying down just to graze in a grassy patch).

*Tanjobi (by *Teoc Painted T o/o *Misty's Tansie), 1998 Bashkir Curly Gelding

Originally the stallion half of Jobi Farm's breeding program, Jobi has since been gelded and continues to win in the show ring and progress in his training. He seems to genuinely enjoy the attention while performing at shows, but is himself at home out in the pasture getting groomed at liberty. He is making consistent progress in his training under saddle and a regular mount for Erica Frei.

*Theodore Obi (by *Tanjobi o/o Andeut), 2004 Curly / Hanoverian Gelding

The perfect clone of his sire, *Tanjobi, Theo is still a momma's boy at heart. He has continued to grow into quite the gentleman, with beautiful gaits, correct conformation and a personality that just begs for love. We often go out to the pasture and mistake Theo for his daddy, and vice versa. We really look forward to the riding team these two will make in the future.

*Truman Obi (by *Tanjobi o/o Wunderkind), 2004 Curly / American Warmblood Gelding

This picture is definitely outdated on this beautiful giant. Truman continues to grow, and grow, and grow...! This baby was a dummy foal following a red bag delivery, and subsequently spent the first 3 weeks of life in the ICU at the local vet hospital. This sweetheart of a guy is the calmest guy in the pasture, he is quick to look for attention and slow to spook. At only two years old he has outgrown his sire and dam and is closing in on our tallest horse who stands 16.1 hands. He has found a place in our heart and forever on our farm.

Wunderkind (by Blue Chip o/o Glorious Hope xx), 1992 American Warmblood Mare

Wunderkind originally arrived on a breeding lease, and soon became a permanent resident. She is a beautiful mover with a sweet personality. She has produced two beautiful babies for us and for a number of years was a great mount for beginners. We sold her and she came back to us abused and mentally scarred. She is making the slow progress back to confidence and trust with people.

The following are the horses we have sold over the years. We want to say thanks to all of our clients and luck in their riding endeavors!

 

*BA's Misty Morn (by *UB Basil o/o *Evening Star), 2000 Bashkir Curly Mare

This lovely young mare we originally purchased as a weanling to use in our breeding program. She produced a beautiful colt (*Ovanlig Obi) for us in her maiden breeding in 2004. She was started under saddle shortly following, and then sold to a gentleman in South Dakota in 2005.

Halifax, 1993 Appaloosa / Curly Gelding

This beautiful gentleman was given to us because he had developed a deteriorating case of navicular, which had not been helped by shoes, pads, daily bute and steroids.

Through corrective barefoot trimming, we brought this guy to soundness over the course of a year without shoes or medication. It was over that time we also discovered what a fabulously well trained trail horse he was. A gentle giant, Halifax found a home with the most loving woman in south eastern Wisconsin! We couldn't be happier!

*J. Curly Camel (Unknown Breeding), 1990 Bashkir Curly Mare

We rescued Camilla in 2001 along with her young colt. Despite her being underweight, she hadn't appeared to have suffered emotionally and came out of the situation being a reliable and fun riding horse. She also produced *Teasel Obi and *Ceylon Obi for us while we owned her.

In 2005, she found a home in Vermont along with her 2002 colt, *Teasel. She has become a personal riding horse and is much loved.

*J. Scratch My Bottom (by Skippa World o/o *J. Curly Camel), 2000 Paint / Curly Stallion

Scratch arrived with his mom from California, 5 months old and handled only enough to put a halter on when he was first born. That halter had quickly been outgrown and was beginning to leave permanent marks on his face when he arrived. Over the course of another 5 months, he learned to lead, tie, load, clip, bathe, lunge, bow, stand on a pedestal and was ready to hitch a cart to, not to mention being an overall quite and sweet guy.

Before he was a year old he found a new home in Pennsylvania where he was left intact because of his quiet personality. To our knowledge he has one daughter, out of a Quarter Horse mare.

*Teasel Obi (by *Tanjobi o/o *J. Curly Camel), 2002 Bashkir Curly Gelding

The first foal born at Jobi Farm, Teasel has been a sweet and tractable young man all the years we owned him. He attended the Midwest Horse Fair at just a few weeks old and was calm and relaxed as could be by all the sights and sounds. He has also been shown in halter classes at Curly breed shows successfully.

In 2005 he was bought, along with his dam, by a woman in Vermont where he has since been started under saddle.

Weiße Obi (by *Tanjobi o/o Wunderkind), 2002 Curly / American Warmblood Mare

Shown here with her new owner, Vee has come to called Massachusetts home since she was a year old. Her beautiful movement and elegant style, has made her an ideal sport horse. She has gone on to be inspected by the American Warmblood Society and is now in training under saddle!

Yankee Dan's Miracle Miss (Barney Fife's Yankee Dan x *Wood's Princess Jo), 2000 MFT Mare

This sweet mare first arrived at Jobi Farm as a weanling from Missouri. Receiving extensive training in hand, including tricks, she was started under saddle as a coming four year old as though she was a seasoned riding horse. Bred to our stallion, *Tanjobi, she was then sold to a wonderful gentleman in Indiana. She produced a beautiful chestnut filly, who unfortunately passed away at a few days old.
