In the summer of 2008 Canterbury Court was certified by the American Hanoverian Society and the German Hanoverian Verband as an approved foal raising site. Both our Sanger and O'Neals facilities were visited by Jorge-Wilhem Wegener, jumping trainer for the Verden Auction. He was very complimentary not only about the natural way we raise our horses but also about the quality of our breeding herd. The entire time he was inspecting our pastures, fencing, and buildings his attention kept being drawn back to the mares and foals. We were approved not only for raising foals, but for breeding mares and starting young horses.
Foals are accepted any time after weaning and may remain until the fall of their two year old year. They are raised right along with our own foals. The groups are shifted between the foot hills and permanent pasture to mimic the progression of seasons. The groups are shifted according to the needs of the individual horses. The foals are handled regularly , wormed, vaccinated and trimmed as needed. They will be taught to tie quietly, pick up their feet, and load. At two and a half years they may enter our training program or return to you to train the way you wish.
The prices vary with the age of the horses and feed prices. Please contact us for a current list.
