Little Rocky and I are progressing nicely both in Dressage and Eventing. He’s my first Connemara and is just such a cheerful fellow. I am lucky to call him mine, and he’s exactly what I need right now.
“Our search for the perfect horse ended when I saw Butters. After almost a year, I began to lose faith that we would find a horse for my daughter, but then I came across a dun Connemara with the kindest eyes and I knew this horse was special. I reached out to Carrie about Butters, and I was energized by how she talked about him and all her Gold to Blue horses. I could tell she wasn’t just selling horses, she was passionate about the Connemara breed and about finding each horse the right home with a loving family. Carrie answered every question I had (and I had a lot). She described Butters to me, and I described my daughter and our family to her. Through our text conversations, I absolutely knew this was our horse—and Carrie agreed. I’ll admit, some people thought I was crazy buying a horse for a kid without ever actually seeing it in person, but after talking to Carrie I was confident in my decision. She made the whole purchasing process seamless; Carrie and her team handled all the travel arrangements. She even gave me photo and video updates as he made his way from Ireland to the U.S. When Butters arrived, he was everything Carrie said he was. After almost a week of traveling he stepped off the trailer and I immediately felt like I already knew him. He has the sweetest disposition, great athletic ability and a heart of gold. My daughter is in love, as am I, as is everyone who meets him. We could not be happier and are so grateful to Carrie and the entire Gold to Blue team for finding, caring, and bringing along such an amazing horse. If I am ever fortunate enough to buy another horse, I will be purchasing a Gold to Blue horse for sure!”
