Eitan will actually be in TX from Oct 12- Nov 18 so if you are close by please contact us for a private lesson or just a visit. He will have Santa Fe Renegade and Indigo Gold with him. He will be staying at Jack’s guest ranch in Whitesboro, TX. Email address: eitan@foothill.net
Update 11/2/09 We have been in TX for three weeks now and loved every minute of it. This part of the country is truly a horseman's paradise, especially if you have a love of "everything cowboy." Unfortunately the day after we arrived Jack Brainard had to have emergency bypass surgery. He had 4 bypasses and is expected to make a full recovery. We missed him greatly at our first TX clinic but hope he will be able to visit us during our second TX clinic in this Nov. We love Jack dearly and are anxious for him to get back "in the saddle" soon. I am sure he is even more anxious than we are for that to happen. Eitan can easily identify with Jack's situation having had a 7 way by pass 12 years ago.
A Big TEXAS Thank You to Kathy & Jack Brainard, Bonnie Glasglow and Wayne Zercher and Janet & David Brown for their help support and efforts in helping make our visit to Texas so successful and enjoyable. What a time we all had!!
We wish to Thank everyone who made our trip such a huge success and especially Bonnie Glasglow and Jack Brainard. Texas is a big state and many traveled a long distance to share time with us. We also had people come from as far away as AZ, KY, CO, MI, NH IL, VT, WY, and PA. It was truly a wonderful time. We look forward to next year!
The clinics are still a go and Eitan is doing a full day instead of half a day.
If you wish to send Jack a card or note please send to 1138 West Line Rd, Whitesboro, TX 76273.

It has been a long search for just the right Palomino
for Eitan’s next Cowboy Dressage project. We think we have found that horse in the
3 yr. old Saddlebred stallion Cheyenne Gold. This colt arrived in late August and
much to our delight he was even more than we expected. Eitan had to have lots of
deep rich gold (like a newly minted penny) with lots of "chrome." He wanted a "signature
horse" that you would not find anywhere else….something memorable and of course
talented. He got all of it!!
Cheyenne is a long term project and shows great promise. He has all the attributes Eitan looks for in his own special horses. It is a matter of time and patience. Keep an eye out for this horse as he could very well be "spectacular."

Eitan has been working diligently on a new endeavor. He will be releasing a new training manual in Oct of this year. This is a first for Eitan. In this 40+ page manual Eitan discusses much of what he covers and teaches in his DVDs, clinics, school and training program. There is a lot of good information and many detailed diagrams to help the reader a long. This manual is "student friendly" and is easy to follow and understand. Eitan covers movement, footfalls, cadence and anatomy as well as gymnastic exercises for the horse. If you want to learn how to "build" your horse and condition him mentally and physically to be the best he can be this is a must have.

Terob B Exquisite will have a new home with Dr. Robert
Miller and his wife Debby. "B" as she is affectionately called was bred by Teri
Personeni of Terob Morgans of Grass Valley, CA and formerly owned by Ellen DiBella
of Sunrise Morgans in Parker, CO. "B" is a granddaughter of the great Holiday Compadre.
She is a half sister to my beloved Lighthouse Bonnie by Nashboro Gallant Lad. At
this time "B" is in the capable hands of Dawn Batti of Batti Ranch in Lincoln, CA.
"B" is getting her Natural Horsemanship education there and will be going home to
the Millers this next winter.
It had been a long time desire for Debby to have her own Morgan mare. She wanted something on the smaller side that would be safe and comfortable. She got just the right package with her darling "B". This is a lovely little mare with lots of Morgan quality, very kind disposition and excellent mind.
She is just what Debby had been dreaming of and in "gold" to boot!
As a side note Dawn Batti now owns her first Gold Morgan Mare. After getting "B" in training Dawn and her husband Val fell in love with her and wanted one of their own. Teri Personeni just happened to have another beautiful gold mare and she is now Dawn’s new golden girl named Dream Catcher Miss Chief another daughter of Nashboro Gallant Lad. Teri did keep one for her self too who is also in training with Dawn Batti.

For the second year Santa Fe Renegade's foals have received top honors at the 2009 Morgan Grand National and World Championship Morgan Horse Show held in Oklahoma City, OK. We wish to congratulate Meadowcreek I'am a Renegade owned by Susan Poe of Astoria, OR and trained by Jenna Rankin of Jenna Rankin Training Stables in Astoria, OR. Renegade was shown by Jenna's mother, Kelley Rankin to the Reserve World Western Pleasure Three Year Old title. This was an especially exciting win as Jenna won the World Title for the same division on Pam Engblum's beautiful 3yr old by Pardon My French. It was a power packed double win for this dynamic mother and daughter team. If you remember in one of our last news letters we mentioned Jenna Rankin and Kasey Monty as young talent to keep an eye on as they were up and comers in the western and hunt divisions. We also wish to congratulate EV Santa Fe Special (owned by Karen Cooley) on his big win in the Western Pleasure Ladies Gelding Class. This was a huge class and very competitive. Special received top honors under their guidance of Kelly Kraegel Varner of Oklahoma. Special went on to receive a strong 3rd in the highly regarded Western Pleasure Ladies World Championship where you often see the best of the best at OKC. Jill Smith was especially excited as she showed her beloved EV Santa Fe's Patron to a top ten in the Western Pleasure Amateur division. Jill and Patron are under the direction of Jewels Adams of Futurity Farm in Auburn,CA.

Bonnie Glasglow Gets New Saddlebred FillyBonnie Glasglow of Pilot Point, TX just got herself a new weanling Saddlebred Filly. Bonnie had fallen in love with Eitan's new Saddlebred, Cheyenne Gold. She just had to have one of her own. Bonnie now has "Rose" who is a half sister to Cheyenne on the dam's side. She is a lovely palomino with 4 white socks and already a futurity winner. Saddlebreds are a new adventure for Bonnie who has long been a Quarter Horse owner. The experience of both these wonderful breeds will give Bonnie lots to share in the future.
Happy Trails to All and we wish you good health and happiness during the coming season.
~Debbie and Eitan Beth-Halachmy
