I knew from the first time I laid eyes on a horse that they would be a big part of my life. With the help, understanding, and guidence of my parents, Bruce and Mary Shirey, I was able to pursue my dream of a life with horses. Paints were always my passion... there was something about all that color that got me hooked. I got my first APHA gelding at 10 and by 13 I had my own set of 2 year olds to break and train.

Since then I have trained APHA pont earners in Halter, WP, HUS, and my favorite...Longe Line as well as End of year Res Champions and Res Futurity winners. I have had the pleasure of working with such trainers as EH Pait, Cleve Wells, Ty Honick, and Karen Hornick and I am very greatful to them for all I ws able to learn.

I have purchased an outstanding colt, Invite The Artist "Johnny", that I truely believe is going to be a household name in just a few years. As soon as Johnny gets his show career under way I will have a few foals for sale by him out of some awesome mares.

Thank you to the people that have purchased our foals so far and to those who have already shown intrest in breeding to "Johnny".

See you at the shows!
