Pre Evaluation Clinic  Enderby,BC.   Hostess: Carol Boehm   Clinician:  Brian Jensen

Carol and Jim were very kind to host us all for the weekend.  They had the house, the yard and all her horses looking great.  We were well fed and well educated, as we covered the conformation tests as well as the english, western and driving tests.

 Thank you to Wanda and Julie, as well, for their work to present the performance tests.   

“Mid’s Jed” (aka Henry Fjord), owned by Heather Baskey of Ontario, enjoys Parelli Natural Horsemanship, where Henry is a “star student”.  Henry was born in 2006 and it is remarkable how well he learns new things! 

Lovely Yvonne Olson and her beautiful Fjords, of Courtenay, B.C.  The horses originally came from the Middleton's of Saskatchewan.  We have Chase(13), his Lady Cinnamon (17), two daughters Alhena (9) and Summer Solstice(4), and a distant relative Sadr(10 years). 
The quadrille that I belong to is quite fun and my girl Alhena does a good job.  Look for us on the island. 

Grant Proudlove, of Roblin, Manitoba sent in this picture taken at the Roblin Ag Fair in 2007.  Grant is the driver of the buggy, his son-in-law was the passenger. 

Lori Albrough, of Bluebird Lane Fjords, sent some beautiful pictures of her horses.  Her website is as professional as any other project she takes on.  Be sure to check it out!  Prisco is on the left and Kestrel is to the right. 

Hello, my name is Sally Maitland and I live in Kelowna, BC. I am a huge fjord enthusiast and have a beautiful fjord mare named Bakken's Regn (Bred by Alison, but I purchased her through Snowy Mountain Fjords).  She is a true character and brings so much joy to my life. I have attached a picture of her in her Norwegian Princess costume for Halloween that maybe you would be interested in for the website as it shows how fun and versatile the breed can be.
We are sad to announce that Sally now grieves the tragic loss of her precious mare Regn. 

Kipp and Lucas are Gord Fulton's newest project.  They are full brothers that were born and raised on his farm.  Gordon and his neighbor, Randy, each have a team.  They help each other out and enjoy working the green horses in the Alberta snow. 

'Becky' began a new career after her girl, Katie, left for University. After her very successful career in 4-H, I sent her away for 1 month of professional driving training.  It wasn't long before she won the Pony Driving Championship at Spruce Meadows.  You have to love the 'try' in these Fjords.  She always gives 120%.  Besides driving, 'Becky' goes western and english, rocks at keyhole, and loves to jump. 

The near horse is Claybank's Tug and the off horse is Claybank's Olaf.  Brian is all geared up to go on wagon treks, and he has a couple in mind for this summer.  He is planning to do a 3 day ride/drive campout in Kamloops, BC the last weekend of May.  There is another 5 day wagon trek at Moose Mountain, SK, the first part of July.  Keep checking the Events Page for further details...

In 2008, Brian Jensen presented this Postillian Hitch at a PNFPG sponsored show in honor of friends lost. 

My experience at the NFHR 25th Anniversary show was not only extremely educational but a lot of fun to boot.  I had the pleasure of accompanying  Pat Wolfe as a passenger while he was driving Prydarson in the Parade of Nations for the final evening's events.  I told Pat that they asked me because they needed a skinny chick to sit on the little seat in front of him.  It's a good thing Pat has such an amazing sense of humor and is such a good ambassador for us Canadians.  Great to have a spot to share my story.  Red Wing Acre's Norwegian Fjords.  Carol Boehm.
