I bought Dezi from C ‘Em Walkin Ranch October 08, and I couldn't be happier.. I bought her sight unseen from Michelle.  I was was on equine.com and fell in love with her. When she was delivered I cried she was everything Michelle told me plus more. Michelle is wonderful to deal with and will go out of her way helping you and answering the hundred questions you have.  LOL  Dezi is  joy to work with, she is a very fast learner and has wonderful manners. Michelle I want to thank you for everything..you and the trainers spending the time with Dezi really paid off. She loves attention and gives kisses, I haven't seen her be afraid of anything yet-and we walked 1 mile down my driveway to get the mail and she had perfect manners. She is great at being in the cross ties and having her feet picked up and cleaned and she parks out like a dream too. After such a long trailer ride to get here she wasn't the least bit afraid of the trailer she loaded beautifully for me. She has the best conformation I have seen on any baby. Now I can't wait until she is old enough to ride!! Dezi also gaits like a dream in the pasture and you should see her rack. She is beautiful. I can' t wait to see the 2009 offspring of The Artistic FX. Show season is around the corner and I can't wait!! Thank you so much Michelle. I will definitely keep you updated on our progress. (Tammy is planning on showing Dezi in halter classes, watch for this wonderful pair!)

Purchased Oct 08..I was very pleased with my purchase of Kasey Kahne, stud colt, I am very pleased with his quality and health. He is a very well made colt and has an excellent way of going. This colt will be shown and will be standing at stud in WV in a few years. I also would recommend C ‘Em Walkin Ranch when purchasing your next horse as Michelle was very professional and the health and quality of this colt was outstanding.

I purchased Dundee from Michelle June 08 and I have to say it was truly a wonderful colt buying experience.  She answered all my questions promptly and was very honest about everything.  I purchase my colt sight unseen and when he arrived at my barn he was everything Michelle had promised him to be.  He definitely is a superior colt and a joy to own.  Thank you for everything, Wendy

I purchased a champagne and white filly on 8/31/07.  She was 3 and a half months old when I picked her up. She is beautiful and a pleasure to work with. She is very smart and catches on easily.  I love her and hope to make her a wonderful riding horse in a couple of years.  She walks right up to me when I go to get her from the pasture.

I saw a picture of her on equine.com and fell in love with her, I knew then that she was coming home with me.  I purchased this filly sight unseen. UPDATE: 4/15/08  Luna's eyes are like a light hazel green. not blue anymore.  I can't wait to send you pictures of her, she sure is beautiful. Everyone who comes to the barn to visit spend more time at her stall, providing she's in it and just stare at her.  She loves the attention. UPDATE 8/10/08 My riding instructor put a circingle and lots of pads on Luna then side reins, long lines and drove her.  Luna did awesome, she did not mind anything, followed commands and seemed to enjoy it all.  She is wonderful, I can't wait to get on her.  Nothing appears to phase this horse when she understands what she is supposed to do.  I love her so much!!!!!!!!!!!

I had bought a horse before who had been "helped" to act like a very calm and cool horse. As soon as I bought that horse and he was brought off the trailer at my house, he acted more like a horse who needed a cage instead of a stall. He was definitely not the same quiet horse I had purchased just days before. Things turned out well in the end but I know how there are "horse people" out there who cannot be trusted.

I bought Cloud from Michelle from equine.com in June 2006 just by looking at pictures over the internet and talking to Michelle over the phone. Of course, I absolutely fell in love with his pictures but I could tell just by talking to Michelle that she was a very honest, dependable person who knew what she was talking about when it came to horses. We made a trip to Ohio to see Cloud after I had paid my downpayment and I couldn't have been happier with my decision. My family and I loved the way she cared for her horses and ran her business. Each mare and foal receives individual care and attention. Michelle really loves her horses. Even though it was a long trip from home, my family and I agreed that we couldn't have bought a foal from a better person. When Cloud was finally able to be weaned and brought home, the trait that stood out the most on him was how trusting he was of people. It was just obvious that he had only had positive experiences with people. There wasn't a reason in the world for him not to trust people. He is 8 months old now and is growing up to be a wonderful horse. He runs up to us out in the field, which I think I owe to Michelle for the trusting nature and disposition he came with. He is very reasonable and level-headed and smart, smart, smart. Always thinking! Not to mention, he has an incredible natural gait that I can't wait to ride!

UPDATE: 9/9/08: Cloud is doing really well. We love him to pieces. I thought my horses were personable but he makes them look boring. I've put a bareback pad on him twice in the past 2 weeks. I actually turn him out when I'm working around in the barn, IN THE BACKYARD!!! He doesn't go far from me, constantly coming over to "help" me. Maybe I'm treating him like a dog but I think it's teaching him independence. He has no desire to leave people. My dad was washing cars and he'll walk up there, visit him, come down to the barn, see me. Anyway, I put the bareback pad on and just let him graze in the barnyard while I do barn chores. Sometimes I wish I had another his age for him to play him. Last night, I went out and sat in the field with him; he just follows me around everywhere and is much more interested in "talking to me" than grazing.

We purchased a weanling colt from an ad on the internet, and we are well satisfied with him. He was imprinted at birth, and he definitely has a great disposition and is very affectionate. We got him home and found that is a quick learner and eager to please. We are well satisfied with this colt. We purchased this colt sight unseen.

I bought my first colt from C_em Walkin Ranch in April 2006. Actually, I called first to ask about some geldings for sale. From the first minute into the conversation, I knew that I was dealing with someone who really knew what she was talking about...and I knew she really LOVED horses. Michelle spoke to me about everything...the difference between buying a baby and buying an adult horse. She actually helped me figure out what was best for me and what I wanted out of having a horse. I knew that I definitely wanted to see her colts ASAP! My first time at C'em Walkin Ranch I felt right at home! Michelle let me meet all the Mares...they were all SO SWEET! I couldn't really believe how beautiful they all were...and the babies...oh my gosh! They were so cute...and EXTREMELY friendly! I fell in love with my little filly from the first day. My horse is 2 now...and absolutely gorgeous! Her gait is amazing, I couldn't ask for a better disposition! My experience was so great...I actually bought my 2nd filly from C_em Walkin Ranch 3 months later! Once again...she has an amazing gait, beautiful spots, and an amazing disposition. If I could own 1 colt from every mare at C_em Walkin Ranch, I would! I couldn't have asked for 2 better Mares!!!!

I bought my first horse ever from C Em Walkin Ranch in June of 2006. From the first time I visited, I knew, that's where I wanted to get my filly. All the mares were so well behaved, and friendly. Ivanna is a homozygous spotted filly and she is GORGEOUS!! She was leading and trailer loading when I picked her up. She is now 2 yrs. old, very friendly, and unbelievably smart. I'm actually using her to help teenagers with disabilities. I would recommend C Em Walkin Ranch to anyone looking for weanlings!!!!
