At Westrea Stud we have a philosophy of handling
our horses, at whatever age, with respect and love. We use natural
horsemanship to achieve a balance of trust between human and horse.
All our horses live in herds even those that are ridden daily. None
of our horses are stabled unless necessary. There is nothing worse
than couping up a horse for no reason. Our horses are taught to
trust and work with humans by humans, and learn how to be a horse
by horses!
Our philosophies are based on the work of Monty Roberts and Kelly
Marks. At Westrea we breed for the love of horses
& ponies and not for vast profits! We only breed a few youngster
per year this gives us time to spend with them using natural horsemanship
which will benefit you, the owner, in years to come.
The name of "Westrea" is taken from the
Titan theology. Westrea is an alternative name given to "Usrel"
who is the Goddess of Peace & Love. We felt this very fitting
for our stud with both rider and horse working in harmony together.
Good Luck to all of you who have purchased
youngsters from us in Spring 2009.
We have some super top class babies due very soon!
It's foaling time at Westrea & we will add in photos as soon
as they arrive.
