Lovely Horses and Carriages |
HORSES AT WORK
We have horses and carriages unique to the Austin, TX area. Our horses are lovingly cared-for and it shows in their appearance. All of our carriage horses are Percherons,
a French draft breed.
For our fellow animal lovers--our vets and highly respected farrier praise their condition and our care of them. They are among our many references.
Cormier (Kor-mee-a) is 18 hands (6' tall at the shoulder), and very stylish.
To get an idea of his size, look up at any 8' tall ceiling. With head raised, his ear tips would brush it.
Below you see Cormier hitched to a white folding top carriage.
Elysian is a star-burst dappled gray Percheron.
At 18'2" hands tall and weighing 2400 pounds, Elysian is the most massive carriage horse in Austin.
Elysian's color matches the black and silvery grey carriage.
Devereaux is an athletic Percheron with a gleaming pearl white color.
He was Amish trained and is gentle and sweet.
Below, Devereaux is hitched to our three-seat Limousine Carriage. It seats six adult passengers comfortably.
HORSES AFTER HOURS
Getting horse cookies at home ... just because!
The boys like to kick up their heels, get muddy and have fun at home. Here, Elysian and Cormier are playing tag.
Devereaux, at liberty, with all four feet airborn. He has tremendous athleticism for his size.
(Yes, we actually shampoo even these legs clean before work.)
Cormier in turnout. Oh to look so good first thing in the morning, and after rolling in dirt ... .
Elysian, stretching his legs. You can feel the ground vibrate. His power and strength are impressive.

You might be surprised to learn that our horses are also trained to ride--they particularly like the creek.
