Hot, hot and more hot. So far this summer we have seen some scorching temperatures and very little rain at Diamond A Canadians. The horses are all doing well, although I am sure they would wish it to cool off into the 20's C instead of the 30+ degree weather we have been experiencing.

I hope you all like the new website and visit often. On our front page, being featured this month is Rapture and her filly Willow. Each month will see a new picture and different horse being spotlighted. That way they all get a turn being a star!

My daughter Chelsey and I have been riding each night after it cools off. Chelsey is giving Carma some exercise and I have been putting on some miles on Rose. She is going nicely under saddle and I am planning on taking her to Spruce Meadows in September to take part in the breed demos happening there. Let people know that Canadians come in something besides black!

Happy Tails,
Karen

Well its June and Love is in the air....horsewise anyways! Duc has been put to work and he couldn't be happier about it:) Jewel, Jeanne and Mystique have been his love interests this spring and I hope that we have three beautiful foals next spring as a result of their liasion.

Both new fillies Winnie(Jewel's foal) and Willow(Rapture's foal) are growing and doing well. Both of them are in your pocket and absolutely love attention. Winnie received her first halter lesson today and thought that was not too big of a deal, just as long as she still got a scratch too.

Praying for rain in Rumsey. Not a drop of moisture all spring, we desperately need the rain. Pastures, crops and hay fields, not to mention my garden and are in dire need of a big drink.

Hello Everyone, Welcome to the first blog from Diamond A Canadians! An update on our latest additions to the herd. We have two new fllies on the ground in May. Jewel and Duc produced a black filly with a star on May 6. We have named her Winsome aka Winnie and she is thriving, quite a strong resemblance to her dam at this point.
Our second addition arrived ten days later on the 16th out of our young mare Rapture.She was bred to Canadream's Manhattan, and once again another beautiful black filly with a star. She has been named Willow and is quite the friendly girl. Will post pictures within a few days.
