Welcome to Dragonara Miniatures
Our farm is family owned and began in 1998 with just one horse, since then we have built up our 'Equine Family' to eight and learnt a lot . We have both imported horses from the USA and Europe and bred our own. 2020 is our 22nd year of showing and during these 22 years we have been consistently successful taking top honors at prestigious shows like The Horse Of The Year Show, Royal International, Royal Windsor and our horses take grand supreme of show frequently.
But in-spite of all our successes our horses are part of our family, dearly loved and appreciated and we still own our first Miniature Horse who celebrated her 22nd birthday this year!
We are situated right in the heart of the country, just north of the beautiful Cathedral City of Lichfield.
We live in a very small hamlet consisting of 6 properties. Our home is a converted barn that was originally built in 1885. Since purchasing we have added a new L shaped 8 stable block, hay barn, feed room, rug room, clipping area, heated wash room and totally re-fenced all the land.
We have an all weather area with a rubberised surface and training mirrors which we now plan to extend.
We have divided our land into 12 paddocks of different sizes. None are very large but it enables us to give the horses their daily freedom without becoming too fat.
Our pastures and fencing have been adapted to suit the needs of miniatures and are very well maintained. Fencing is post and rail with electric in between. All pastures have safe spacious gateways most have concrete access to eliminate mud and solar panel lighting.
Pastures are chain harrowed, sprayed for weeds, rolled and fertilised in the Spring and again in the Autumn, droppings usually removed on a daily basis.
The horses have shelter using field shelters, trees and tall hedges which have been trimmed to form a canopy.
So as you can see we believe in a very safe ,smart environment for our horses.
It is our home as well as theirs!
