February, 2012 News A new service we can now offer to our clients is tuition. Know that you are in safe hands with our Parelli based education and safety first principles. Confidence issues and beginners and horse/human psychology issues are also offered. See the Services page for further information. A ll the outside mares for Magic have gone back to their homes now and all in foal. So we now look forward to hearing about the "results" later in the year. Swimming has been the order of the hot days - something Magic and his babies all seem to love.
Next month we will have Sam Caporn (3* Parelli Professional) in residence while he starts 6 young horses under saddle and gives young Merlin a refresher course and start his more serious riding career.

December News 2011 With only one more mare still to come, the breeding season is winding down now and our thoughts are focussing on pour plans for 2012. Already, there are exciting plans afoot: Feb - a colt start here with both Sam Caporn and Lyndsey Fitch. Eight "colts" will be here for at least 2 weeks to undergo thier first rides under saddle. This list will include Kareela Hill horses Leo, Merlin and Georgia. Next March 31st/April 1st there will be a special Ground Skills series of group lessons with Marilyn Southern (1* Parelli Professional). Bookings are being taken now (Use the email function at the bottom of the page).
October News, 2011 Well yesterday we farewelled another wonderful young vet student as well as Limelight too. Amber, the vet student, has a horse of her own, so the week went very quickly as we worked through the long list of jobs to do as well as make sure most of the tasks that she needed to have "ticked off" were also addressed too. Limelight has now had his first lengthy road trip to his new home near Perth. Although it is a bit sad to have one of our babies leave us, it is also with much pride that we get to see how well they have turned out and can now get a lot more attention than we can provide. His new owner is a passionate 1* Parelli Instructor, so I'm sure he will have every opportunity to continue his growth and development with her. It has been a very busy time in the buying department too! We now have added a couple of new lovely mares to the herd of girls. One is only a yearling - by our own Magic. Her name is Little Miss Radical ("Missy") and she is a beautiful rich dark bay. Already she is showing herself to be very self-confident and loves to be with people - all day if possible! The other mare is a lovely palomino Quarab - Xanthos/Noran Kawya, 3 years old. Her name is Noran Golden Dancer ("Zara") and we look forward to seeing her foals over future years. Meanwhile, Muffet and her baby Dakota (for sale) are enjoying the lush spring pastures. see pic below.
September News - 2011 Radical Blue Sundance (Jamey) has now been sold. Congratulations to Lisa of Gidgegannup on her purchase. Dakota continues to fill out and grow. There are a couple of new photos on the "For Sale" page. Coming up next month will be a special camp out with our horses and friends in a pretty glen, protected from any wind and full of small birds like wrens, scarlet robins and owls and bats too! Later this month we will also have a vet student from Murdoch University come to study Natural Horsemanship with us for a whole week. Finally, next week will see the first mares for this season going to Magic. He is looking magnificent and keen for any action!
Here Magic is checking out his new son over the fence last week. August News - 2011 This month has seen an average amount of rain once again and the dams are looking OK. The best news is the arrival of Radical Blue Dakota, a bay colt from Dakota Miss Muffet. She had no problems with the delivery and we were there to keep her company and witness his birth at 1.15am on 7th August. "Dakota" appears to be, at the moment, a very high energy charismatic colt with very pretty markings. He is for sale ($3000 before weaning) and will suit all western performance, polocrosse, campdrafting etc.

About Kareela Hill Stud Kareela farm is a 1400 acre sheep and cropping property located just south of Kojonup, approx 260 kms south of Perth. We grow Merino wool, cross-bred fat lambs, canola, oats and barley. With an average rainfall of 500mls and excellent loamy soils, Kareela Farm is well placed to provide excellent pastures for the growing of horses too. Kareela Hill Stud is a horse stud specialising in breeding FEI and Olympic quality Hanoverian Warmbloods by super sires such as Weltmeyer, Wolkenstein II and Wolkentanz, through the use of imported frozen semen (IFS). We also breed modern Western Pleasure type Quarter Horses with quiet, reliable temperaments and sound conformation, making them the appropriate horse for a wide range of pursuits. Some of our Quarter Horses are purebred and registered with the AQHA, but, occasionally we also cross our QH stallion over selected warmblood mares to create that special "designer" horse which can be sometimes registered as a first cross quarter horse and a warmblood with A.C.E. too. These horses are then ideal for pursuing AQHA ROMs in dressage, trail, hunter etc and also perfect for the teenager or adult rider looking for the perfect combination of movement, good looks and temperament.
