TRAINING WITH PATIENCE AND
KINDNESS
Happy Hill Stable, Ft. Worth, Texas, offers Tennessee walking horses for sale, as well as Rocky mountain and
Kentucky mountain horses. Owned by walking horse trainer, Dub Ivins and wife Linda, the stable offers training for gaited
horses, preparing them for the show ring or for pleasure riding. Those new to the gaited horse world, will find that Dub is
a well-recognized and respected trainer among professionals and owners alike. He has been training the Tennessee walking horse
for show and pleasure for fifty years.
The goal at Happy Hill Stable is to offer Tennessee walking horses
and other gaited horses for sale that are contented and have been trained using patient and kind methods. Boarded horses live
in open, wire stalls that provide clear view of the whole barn as well as the pasture. Oversized stalls of twelve by eighteen
feet are available.
Here in the barn a new baby is saying hello to some of the grownups.
The stalls are designed to provide the horses a view of each other and to ventilate well during the summer. During bad weather,
the exterior walls can be closed. The 300 foot hallway provides a place for indoor riding. The stable
buys, sells and trains Tennessee walking horses and mountain horses and usually has a nice selection of quality gaited horses
for sale. You can rely on an honest evaluation of each horse, as an effort is made to match horse and owner for a long
lasting relationship. Many references are available on request.

MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS OF THE NATIONAL WALKING HORSE ASSOCIATION FOUNDED TO PROMOTE THE SOUND TENNESSEE
WALKING HORSE
Dub and Linda with Captain, their 17 hand, gentle giant. He
was an outstanding Tennessee walking horse who cannot be replaced.
Happy HIll Stable can meet the needs of all horse-lovers; from show horse owners to weekend trail riders. Dub rides
customer horses daily. This is his love and full-time job. He applies his many years of experience and knowledge, along with
his attention to detail, to treat each horse uniquely. The Tennessee walking horses for sale at Happy Hill Stable, as well
as the other gaited horses, have not been enhanced chemically. The gait they have here will go home with you. Dub assesses
and meets the needs of each gaited horse individually. He will find the right combination to produce the best gait your horse
has to offer.
This is how we remember our friend, Larry Broxson. Larry loved his horses and he loved his pipe. He rode with it clenched tightly between his teeth. We miss you Lary.

Part of our family here at Happy Hill looks on as Dub and new baby greet each other. This was
her first day out in the big pasture with the whole crew, but she remembers this nice, gentle, man from her first few days
in the barn.
