North Haven Riverview Stable- Technical Aspects
North Haven is typically run by the eldest Ashkevron in the household. The Stable has different divisions to it including- breeding, training, buying and selling and competitions. The eldest may require that other family members take on jobs within the stables or send them to live elsewhere and hire out, if that is what they feel is best for the business. This rarely happens though, as most Ashkevrons have a passion for horses from a young age and can often find a niche in one of the many areas available to work in.
Breeding- The United Worlds technical term for the horses that we breed are 'Warlander' and 'Iberian Warmblood'. Infrequently our stable may put our stallions up for stud. However, our mares are never impregnated by outside Stallions. We believe that their mental and physical health is best left to our care during pregnancy and for this reason all mares bred will be bred on the premises. Exclusive breeding contracts are on a person to person basis.
Riding Lessons- North Haven does very well in competitions and training their own horses. However, they also offer riding lessons, especially to those owners who are rather new at owning horses. We spend a lot of time training our horses and want to see them flourish with their new owners. That can be difficult to do if the rider has bad habits and they may actually undo all the hard work put into training a horse well.
Clinics- The stable tries to hold a clinic at least once a year and is open to the public for a nominal fee. Topics will include skills, tips and techniques.
Colors-
Stable- Green (#256f2f) and Brown (#7f562d) and White (#ffffff)
Note: While NH's riders use the NH colors in most competitions there are a few exceptions where it is beneficial to the competitor to also use their own color in conjunction to the stable's colors, most often if they are riding for another stable.
