Dixie attended the Jasmine Jubilee show this last weekend, and the competition
was again stiff, with most of the amateurs also NRHA reiners. All the Reining
classes were again large with 4 point open classes and 2 point amateur
classes. Dixie got a second, 2 thirds and a forth in amateur. Not bad considering
the competition, and the fact that she is now recovering from EPM. She
was diagnosed 3 weeks ago because her stops were falling apart. Thanks
to good anti protozoa drugs, she is getting stronger.
11/25/11: Dixie has added another accomplishment to her resume. SCQHA 2011 High Point Amateur reining horse! Third in all age!
7/24/11: The SCQHA Yippi Yi Yeah circuit is over, and Dixie had a very good weekend with the 8 judges, picking up 7 amateur reining points and finishing her Amateur Register of Merit (ROM). She also got a second, third and fourth in All age reining with 16 head and picked up 3.5 points. With all these points, she has now qualified for the 2011 Amateur World Show in Oklahoma City, OK.

West Coast Whiz was humanely put down Dec 8th due to founder, which
was caused by white line disease. He had been struggling with the founder
since June, and was improving until the last week. This, sadly, falls on
the heels of his daughter, West Coast Mizzen winning the NRHA Non Pro Futurity
in Oklahoma City on Dec 4th. Our condolences to all his connections. We
will take great pride in riding and showing his daughters, Dixie and Pearl.
West
Coast Whiz is now a NRHA Million Dollar Sire!! He is a third generation
Million Dollar sire following his sire, Topsail Whiz, and his Grand Sire,
Topsail Cody!!
Dec 23, 2009: Topsail
Whiz (sire of West Coast Whiz) is humanely put down due to a spinal cord
problem. He is the leading sire of reining horses, and will be missed.

(photo
at left) Meet our new family member, Roxy! She wandered
up to the barn this am, from out of the woods. She had been lost for days
and was skin and bone. She walked right up to me, purring, and I immediately
knew she was homeless and needed help. I took her to the vet for a quick
checkup. She weighed only one pound!
9/2/10
(photo
at right) She is now healthier with some medicine for her kitten
pneumonia, and a few days of food in her. For a kitten of only about 5
weeks old, she has bounced back quickly. She's a lucky kitty to find our
farm. She'll get lots of love!!
9/12/10 Roxy is now an official Show cat!!
She enjoyed riding in the truck and hanging out in the horse trailer and
barns at the Clemson, SC show grounds. She was the highlight attraction,
after the day's classes, by doing a new trick of raising her paws in a
"touchdown" motion! Everyone loved it!!
10/4/10 Roxy enjoying the "good life" on the couch, and watching
the Congress reining futurity, with me, on the computer!!
Wondering about her color? Me too! I looked it up on the internet.
She is a Tortoise Shell calico! (Tortie)
