*Christiaan our KING... will live in our hearts forever. His incredible spirit is felt every day...
Forever Missed ~ Never Forgotten
​
Christiaan has a heart as bold & as pure as his beauty! We have fallen in love with this amazing boy & are so grateful to have him on the farm! He has achieved SPORT- ELITE status in Holland, and is among one of the extremely rare & very few Friesians in the world with such a title! Christiaan & Kai were stable mates and both competed in singles & pairs, winning numerous competitions. Christiaan is used for many of our exclusive & private photoshoots!
Palo Alto
Palo is at his new home in Washington state where he is doing search & rescue & his favorite thing, carriage rides for friends & family! We miss this boy BIG time @ TGL Farms, but know he is exactly where he is suppose to be. Palo's spirit still lives on this property & he is also "why" we were blessed enough to find TGL Farms...That's another story, but Palo Alto will live in our hearts here forever...
Kai
*STER Predicate
Kai was born in Holland & awarded STER status. Only the top 25-30% of Friesian horses achieve this prestigious title.Kai is now 12 years old, loves attention & excels at dressage, driving & trail riding. He has graced the cover of PHRYSO Magazine for winning many competitions while in the Netherlands as well as magazine covers in the US & featured in commercials & television shows shot at TGL Farms!
Rhaenyra aka: Reign
*STER Mare in Foal
A lifelong, childhood dream, has been to experience the birthing of our very own foal & we are so proud to announce that we are now the owners of this beautiful, STER Friesian mare from Holland who has finally arrived in the USA & is at her new home, TGL Farms! "Queen" Rhaenyra has exquisite Friesian bloodlines & confirmation & at the age of 5, stands at a breathtaking 17hands!
Bred to: Gosse 526 (Sport AAA)
Sire: Jehanne's 484 (Sport AAA) & Dam: (Model Sport A Mare) She is from the SAME horse farm in the Netherlands that Kai & Christiaan are from. Her new baby/foal Xena Reign was born April 18th at TNEquine!
Thank You *Dr. Fairfield Bain & Dr. Lovell TNEquineNorth.

Trude
Trude is a SWEET 16-year-old STER Friesian mare, who we adopted from Fenway this year! She has been in rehab at their facility since August 2022 & had tendonitis in her superficial digital flexor tendon & a stress fracture to her coffin bone which she now has successfully recovered from! We are grateful to the incredible team that helped Trude recover AND for trusting in us enough to bring her to her forever home at TGL Farms. Visit FenwayFoudation.com for more info on their GREAT research & all they do to educate and enhance the longevity & quality of life of Friesian horses.
Xena Reign
TGL's First Foal
Baby Xena Reign
Born April 18th, 2023 @ 11:45PM! She is TGL Farms first born Friesian & has quite the impressive bloodlines from The Netherlands. You can see momma & baby playing & frolicking in one of the pastures during the day! More to come!
Sweetie
"Unicorn" Mini Pony
The perfect pony... 15years young, is the best way to describe our littlest equine at TGL, named SWEETIE. She is a true unicorn in the pony department and continues to give countless kiddos their very first pony rides here at TGL Farms! Don't let her tiny stature fool you, her spirit is absolutely BIG & beautiful to be around & she is a shining, bright light wherever she goes on property. We love our Sweetie & are so lucky to have her here at TGL to share with all the neighbor kids, families & our friends!
