Raising young horses: just as important as their later training!
Don't take any risks, let your future champion grow up in the best possible conditions. Quality Stud has proven that it can do this (see references) Our stud farm has 24 hectares of high-quality organic meadows and is located in the middle of the quiet polders on the Belgian coast. All meadows are professionally fenced in wood. They are all surrounded by a high hedge that shields the wind and each meadow has several weeping willows to protect the horses from the sun.
In the summer there are a maximum of 2 horses per hectare and in the winter the horses have spacious stables as the photo shows.
We only accept foals that can stay here until they start training. If you are interested, send an email to koen@qualitystud.be
Healthy grassland for healthy horses
We are raising our horses on biologic grassland.
We don't use artificial fertilizers which don't gave a good effect on OC and OCD of the horses
We are producing our own humus to fertilize the grassland. This allows good herbs to settle in the land..
We used mixed grazing. In the summer cows are grazing together with the horses.
during winter time, when the horses are inside, a herd of sheep is doing the rest of the work so that the next spring the horses enjoying a optimal grassland with all the necessary minerals and herbs they need to become strong and powerfull sporthorses.
We put special attention on gently breaking and training the horses.
There are two ways to train a horse for riding: one way works well, and the other causes more problems than it is worth.
Gentle breaking works best because it helps a horse build trust with its handler, and this relationship will last a lifetime.
We handle each horse as an individual and give him all the time he need. As a result of our knowledge and our patient our sport horses are well schooled and well mannered. Most of them ready to perform at the highest level
The horses are trained at Quality Stud by American rider Jennifer Goddard.
It is therefore not surprising that many horses from here are sold directly to American riders without having to pay very expensive commissions to middlemen.
Many horses are also sold from here for the typical American Hunter or Equitation competitions.
