Dub's true area of expertise is in gait development, and he rides customer horses daily to achieve this. He is patient, and his horses remain sound throughout the training process. Most of his career has focused on perfecting the gait of performance Tennessee walking horses, as well as showing them for their owners. Since opening Happy Hill Stable, his focus has changed to flat shod, sound, Tennessee walking horses, Rocky mountain and Kentucky mountain horses, and Missouri fox trotters for show and pleasure.

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.

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.

HAPPY HILL MASTERPIECE Happy Hill Farm was fortunate to have purchased this fine colt from Walking Proud Farms, owned by Tom and Jody Decker. The Deckers produce fine quality TW horses of color. This young man is smart, smooth and a rare find. Master has been sold to Holly Nolan, and is now known as Master Jack. They are having a fine time together.
