Foxvangen
Farm offers horses for sale that are as presented
here. Each horse is described accurately and any faults,
blemishes, etc. are fully disclosed. If you have any
questions regarding any of them please feel free to
contact us at: foxvangen@yahoo.com
, OR call evenings at 870-258-3885.
We will be more than happy to answer any questions
you may have or just talk horse!
To make purchasing
more affordable and/or convenient for our customers,
Foxvangen Farm is happy to offer terms on any horse
presented for sale. 90 days is the same as cash here
with the horse left here until paid in full. Longer
contracts can be arranged as well. We make every effort
to work with our buyers so the experience of purchasing
a quality Missouri Foxtrotter is pleasant and rewarding.
We do not accept
credit cards at this time, but we do accept Pay Pal
which affords options to buyers such as the use of
their credit card. Foxvangen Farm works hard to match
the right horse to the prospective buyer. In the rare
event someone is not totally happy with their choice
we offer exchanges. We do not offer refunds.
Now is a good
time to purchase. Due to the recession we at Foxvangen
Farm have rolled our prices back to suit the times.
As soon as the lagging economy improves these prices
will go back up considerably. If you see a horse you
like feel free to make an offer. We may not accept
it but then again we may negotiate...it never hurts
to ask! We are not desperate to sell but we are reasonable
enough to try to work with our customers.
If we do not
have just the right horse you are looking for we are
more than happy to try to locate one for you. Please
take time top view the horses listed below.
As you are viewing
the horses available, keep in mind that Foxvangen
Farm breeds quality horses that are attended at birth,
handled daily, and receive only the best of care.
All the horses are vaccinated and wormed regularly.
They receive daily wormer during the warm season.
Our horses see a farrier regularly from the time they
are two weeks of age, and are never harshly treated.
They are fed top quality feed to include daily mineral
supplements and they are not ridden until they are
mature enough that ALL their growth plates in the
legs have closed. We like them to grow up sound and
remain sound and productive well into their twenties.
We do not ride
babies and we do not stress joints. To do so is to
cause early onset arthritis even though any lameness
may not show up for many years. So if you are looking
for fully trained 2 or 3 year olds do not shop here!
We believe in allowing horses time to mature in the
brain and learn to be a horse before learning to be
a to notch riding companion. Our horses are people
loving, gentle and kind. They are bred to gait naturally
and do not pace. We hope you will find a horse on
this page that fits your ideal. Thank YOU for visiting!!

Foxvangen's
Monarch
Foxvangen's Monarch was foaled August 30, 2011.
His sire is Foxvangen's Solaris and his dam is Foxvangen's
Que Se Ra. Monarch is a very outstanding palomino,
curly colt with four long stockings and a bald face.
He has presence and style as well as having correct
conformation. He is bold and calm but also active
and friendly.
At just one day of age,
Monarch illustrated remarkable balance, strength and
coordination. He had amazing control of his body and
could simply lift himself up off the ground effortlessly.
He was born people loving
and curious about everything. He seems to fear nothing.
At six days of age he was already poised and elegant,
carrying himself with pride and style.
Monarch's strong legs have
great bone and excellent joints. He is quick as fox
fire on them and never takes a mis step. He enjoys
romping where he shows extraordinary speed and quickness
of foot. He practices quick turns and stops and can
run full throttle only to reverse without so much
as a change of speed.
Monarch is a spectacular
colt with a natural stock horse instinct even though
he can also display first rate gait and extension
of a champion. He is a good candidate for stallion
material.

Foxvangen's
Sasha
Sasha is a strong yearling filly
with a hefty frame, great legs, joints and feet.
Her sire is Foxvangen's Toy Boy and her dam is Foxvangen's
Millenium. She is athletic as they come and extremely
bold and sure of herself. I do not believe she has
ever shown fear and is willing to face strange things
with an avid curiosity.
Sasha looks flaxen chestnut right
now but her dam was the same color when she was young
and is now a gorgeous dark chestnut with a dark mane
and tail. Sasha's mane and tail are mixed right now
just as her dam's was when she was young.
This filly is going to mature about
15 hands and will be a stout, strong mare. She will
be solid and sure footed and of course well gaited.
She is offered here at a rock bottom sale price
only due to family illness. These prices will go back
up as soon as our numbers have gone down to a more
manageable number.

Foxvangen's
Saxon
V-102
Foxvangen's Saxon was foaled
August 24,2010 as the result of the mating between
Casey Ann Kay and Foxvangen's Solaris. Saxon is a
charming colt who was born extremely curly. His hair
grew out to Marcelle waves before lengthening to bunny
fur. He has tiny, tight curls in his ears and has
proven hypo-allergenic to all the exposed allergic
people to see him to date.
Saxon will shed straight
like all of ours but will likely keep his ear curls
in winter as does his brother Titan. On severely cold
winters he may show the least little bit of wave but
one will need to look for it. This is the type strain
of curl our horses carry.
Saxon was born an athlete
with a quick, intelligent mind. He is adorable and
friendly and nearly impossible to spook. Saxon is
calm and playful and will make an excellent stallion
prospect just like his sire, Solaris.
Saxon has great bone and
joints and a really pretty head. His large eyes are
extremely long lashed and his eyes are dilute. We
believe they will eventually turn amber. His sire's
eyes are a dark amber.
We don't generally keep
our colts in tact past 4 months but with Saxon we
decided to make an exception because of his extremely
reasonable and gentle nature and his superb athletic
ability, not to mention his natural gaits.
He is quick as a fox and
nimble as a rabbit. He loves a challenge and was the
first to want to climb our large compost pile and
then play 'Man from Snowy River' coming down the steepest
side. He is not daunted by other horses and he is
naturally bold and curious. He is not hyper or flighty
in the least.
Saxon should mature to 15
hands or possibly a bit more. His mane looks as if
it will be either very wavy or curled. He is likely
to develop into a medium gold palomino.
Whatever Saxon does he puts his whole heart into.
He's a strong, healthy colt with a lot to offer.
New photos will soon be posted. Saxon is now a
year old!

El
Poco Hombre
(The Little Man)
V-100
!!! DOUBLE
REGISTERED!!!
El Poco Hombre; aka, Poco,
is a Blue Papered Missouri Foxtrotter gelding. Shown
in these photos he is 16 months old. He will turn
two in April of 2010. Poco is also registered with
the Foundation Foxtrotter Heritage Association with
a Gold Seal and a factor of V-100 which means he is
just a hair over 5/8 old foundation blood.
If you are looking for a
naturally talented horse, Poco may be just what you
are looking for. He's bright, drop dead lovely to
look at and has an awesome show quality Foxtrot. He
does not pace.
Poco is an elegant moving horse with presence
and style. He canters a true 3 beat canter and gallops
a true 4 beat gallop. He has never shown a lateral
step but does trot well. Poco, as you can see in the
photo below has an amazing head nodding, fully extended,
natural foxtrot. He also running walks and we have
seen him rack on occasion. He carries a nice tail
and has a regal bearing.
Just look at the flip of this guy's mane! That
is testimony to his remarkable head nod and his eye
catching foxtrot. He uses every bit of his shoulder
and foreleg to grab ground and he has the true "hunk
of meat" rhythm.
Poco would make a great trail horse, show horse,
field trial horse or any of a number of speed sports.
He's spirited, spunky and sensitive.
Shown in these pictures just playing in his pasture.
Poco belongs to our sister in law who lives next door.
Poco goes to a host of top horses. In his first
five generations alone he goes to Missouri's Cassey
Jones, Master Tom, Red Rawhide, Playboy's Spotted
Fox, Red Zane....and he goes to Dare's Trigger, Poole's
BlueBoy. This is a well bred youngster just looking
for a quality home.

Foxvangen's
Sarafina
V-99
!!! TRIPLE
REGISTERED!!!
Foxvangen's Sarafina ( pronounced
"sarah - feena") turned a year old in August.
She is an exceptionally pretty filly with a lot to
offer. In fact if she was not so closely related to
our stallions she would not be offered for sale at
all. She is that special! These photos were taken
when she was 10 months old.
Sarafina is a Blue Papered
Missouri Foxtrotter that could be Gold Papered. She
is sired by Foxvangen's Solaris and her dam is Foxvangen's
Millenium. This makes Sarafina third generation of
our breeding program through her sire and second generation
through her dam.
This cross was an excellent
one which we will repeat in the future! Sarafina is
also registered with the Foundation Foxtrotter Heritage
Association with a Gold Seal and a factor of V-99
which means she carries 5/8 original Foundation Foxtrotter
blood. Sarafina is also registered with the Sabino
Horse Registry International as an SB1 Sabino. She
is also eligible for registry in the Pleasure Saddle
Horse Registry where both of her parents are also
registered!
Sarafina is a naturally
calm, very gentle soul with a big heart. As you can
see in the photo above. The little spotted filly had
to be weaned early and came to us at 3 months of age.
She was so terrified and lonely we put her in with
Sarafina. The rest as they say is history. Sarafina
took charge and is mothering her younger friend. They
eat, drink and sleep together. When the little one
gets scared she runs to Sarafina for comfort and Sarafina
protects her. Considering Sarafina is herself barely
a year old that is remarkable. She is one special
filly!
At Foxvangen Farm we like
our youngsters to have space to romp and play. Running
and playing help stimulate growth and promotes good
bone growth but beyond that it develops balance, athletic
ability and a sense of "self" in the foals.
Sarafina, though a naturally gaited Foxtrotter, also
loves to run. She is exceptionally fast. Even when
the other foals have a head start it is always Sarafina
out in front at the end! She runs at a true four beat
gallop and has exceptional balance and surefootedness.
Sarafina is never hyper or fractious but like her
sire she has the heart to run. she does not waste
energy on nerves. She just goes out and gives it her
all. She uses her body beautifully and is so fluid
and smooth she is a joy to watch.
Sarafina shows promise that
could be channeled many different ways. She is not
pacy at all and is very correct in her movement. She
is light and coordinated on her feet and is nimble
and supple as they come. She would make a good prospect
for eventing, field trials, endurance, competitive
trail, and has the superior use of her shoulders and
hips that would do well in gaited dressage, English
Pleasure etc. Of course she would also make a wonderful
and very loyal trail buddy!
Sarafina is offered only
to a home that will assure she will not be ridden
until she is at least 3 1/2. Preferably 4. Sarafina
is worth waiting for and doing things right!

Lv
Max's Twister
LV Max's Twister is a Blue
Papered Missouri Foxtrotter. In these photos he was
just two years old, he will be four in April of 2010.
We will get newer photos of him soon.
Max is a true roan gelding with a sweet nature
and a very willing personality. He learns very fast
and is a fun little horse to work with. Max is not
of our breeding. He was purchased to be a play companion
to another colt we were raising that didn't have a
chum. Max fulfilled his task admirably by being a
"big brother" to the other colt but is no
longer needed. He would make a nice ladies mount or
a teenager's dream horse. He is about 14.2 and though
he does not qualify for Foundation registry he is
terrifically gaited. He is silky smooth in motion
and is fast both in gait and at the gallop. Max does
not pace.
Max is gentle spirited yet sensitive. He requires
a person who will be kind and quiet with him in order
to bring out the best in him. What time I've spent
with him has been very rewarding. He just wants to
do whatever I ask of him and he retains things very
well. He is only offered to someone who will cherish
him and be his lifetime friend.
Max is beginning to fill out nicely and may reach
15 hands eventually but he will not get any taller
I'm quite sure. He is ready to start his ground work
and saddle training and will make a fabulously smooth
riding horse. He is a little timid of people yet once
he trusts he does so with his whole heart.
Max foxtrots naturally in the pasture and we have
seen him running walk. He has a long stride and a
lot of nod. He could make a show horse if that was
of interest to someone. His strengths lie along straight
line work such as showing, dressage, western or English
trail, or any sport such as Competitive Trail, timed
trail etc. This horse really books when he goes. He
has energy and moves in a big way.
Max has the added benefit of being a smooth coat
curly horse which means he displays only a very minimal
amount of wave to his coat yet he is still hypoallergenic
to several people who have allergies that tested him.
He's fresh and ready to start training to whatever
discipline you desire. He is priced for a quick sale
yet only to a qualified home where he will be cared
for and loved. Here is your opportunity to get a really
neat horse for a bargain price!
Max is scheduled to go to training in the spring.
After that his price will go up significantly.

Knight
of Troy
!!! DOUBLE
REGISTERED!!!
Knight of Troy is a Blue
Papered Missouri Foxtrotter gelding that is really
worth taking a look at. He is also registered in the
Foundation Foxtrotter Heritage Association with a
Gold Seal and a factor of V-114 which makes him 9/16
old foundation blood. He is line bred to Master Tom,
Red Rawhide, The Boogie Man and Missouri Traveler.
This packs him with a ton of rhythm and style but
he also goes many times to Golden Governor and has
such greats as Missouri's Cassey Jones, Black Angel
and a host of other well known horses on his pedigree.
Troy is a free moving horse
with a lot of stride and a natural gait that is a
joy to watch. He carries himself with a sort of natural
collection and uses his hocks very well. We have witnessed
him Foxtrotting ( his gait of choice) run walking
and he can rack. He is not pacy.
Troy has a huge hip and a very short back. His
neck is one of the best in the breed for suppleness,
length and clean throatlatch. As you can see he carries
an extremely high tail and has a natural balance.
He is 16 months old in these photos.
When Troy is full grown he will be a big bodied
horse. He has nice legs and good feet. He learns quickly
and is a sensitive horse with a very light way about
him that requires only the lightest of pressure for
response. He retains well and rarely makes the same
mistake twice. Troy is intelligent, willing and is
an energetic horse.
Troy is looking for a caring home that will appreciate
his need for a light touch and quiet handling. He
is so easy to teach that anything other than a light
handling is way overkill.
Troy's dam is Traveling Angel Fire who is a very
large bay mare. She moves with a light elegance that
is beautiful to watch and Troy has inherited her way
of traveling. We can't say how large he will get because
Angel's foals generally grow slowly but we guestimate
he will mature only around 15 hands but will have
substance.

Foxvangen's
Hobbit
Foxvangen's Hobbit
at 11 months
V-96
BLUE PAPERED
!!!! DOUBLE
REGISTERED !!!!
Foxvangen's Hobbit is a
Blue Papered Missouri Foxtrotter also registered in
the Foundation Foxtrotter Heritage Association with
a V-factor of 96 which means he is 10/16 original
old style Foxtrotter. He has a distinguished pedigree
including 37 crosses to Golden Governor and 43 crosses
to Old Fox. His heritage is primarily that of Saddlehorse
and Morgan with more than 1,000 crosses to Justin
Morgan and 56 crosses to the famous Saddler, Rex McDonald!
Hobbit was sired by Foxvangen's
Solaris making him third generation of our breeding
program through his sire. Hobbit's dam is oue of our
herd matriarchs, Chief's Magic Ribbon H. His pedigree
can be traced back to 1623 on many legs and is packed
with notable horses through each generation!
Hobbit in his curly suit.
Once our foals shed their curls they never get them
back but nearly all of them remain hypoallergenic
Hobbit was born with a wavy
coat that turned curly by a month. This is something
we see quite a bit of in our stock. When they shed
their foal coat theye lose the curl and we never see
the curls again but the residual is that nearly every
one of them is hypoallergenic when tested by people
with allergies to horses! We have not tested Hobbit
yet but we are confident he is likely also hypoallergenic
as are so many of our others.
Hobbit is very nimble and fluid in his motion.
As a youngster he is very elastic and flexible. He
likes to run and play and has considerable speed at
the gallop.
He can race down hill full
tilt and without slowing a bit, make a 90 degree turn
and keep on his feet and just keep going or he can
stop midway without losing a step. When he plays he
executes flying lead changes and slide stops like
a stock horse! He's sure footed as a goat into the
bargain. He is sensible and sensitive and learns real
fast.
At just 11 months of
age, Hobbit is very mature and balanced. He has a
steady brain and a fun-loving spirit.
Hobbit moves with economy
and an easy gliding action. He is maturing fast already
as tall as our two year olds.
Hobbit is naturally gaited.
He performs many intermediate gaits but defaults to
foxtrot. He has a natural running walk and he can
canter and gallop true
At night he is closed in
a stall if the wind is blowing hard or it's storming.
I can walk over him and clean the stall around him
and he just lays there unconcerned. I put his blanket
on over his head and can handle any part of his body.
He has had his feet trimmed four times already and
he stands for the farrier.
He has a wise old horse
brain in a baby horse body. But he moves like a solid
horse. With his wonderful bone and joints and feet
Hobbit would be a good candidate for endurance, field
trials or CTR but will make someone a fabulous trail
buddy as well.
Hobbit has an elegant
head with a big pretty eye and a very refined muzzle.
Hobbit was born far darker
than he is in these photos. Our palominos take a few
years to mature their coat color so we really don't
know how dark they will be at maturity. From the spots
of darker gold around his eyes, ears, flank etc we
believe he will mature to a more golden color but
it may take him a couple years to get there if he
follows the pattern of some of our other palominos.
Hobbit enjoys running
and playing in the pasture. He can be alone or with
other horses and gets along with everyone.
He's a wonderful colt with
a lot to offer . He looks like he will mature between
15 hands and 15.2.

Foxvangen's
Summer Heat
V-79
Foxvangen's Summer Heat
is a 9 year old mare foaled in 2002. Her dam is Gambler's
Jasmine who can be seen on our "mare" page.
Her sire is Foxvangen's Braveheart Two who can be
seen on our "stallion" page.
Summer is a large mare standing
approximately 16 hands. She is big bodied and moves
freely with a long stride. Summer is dog gentle and
very friendly. She loves attention and is not aggressive
in pasture. Summer is kind to her pasture mates and
has been pastured with all ages and sexes. She is
simply not a trouble maker.
Summer is a deep liver chestnut in color. She
has a pretty head with a slightly dished face and
a pretty eye that is soft and kind. Summer has produced
one foal to date, sired by Foxvangen's Toy Boy. Her
foal was a dark chestnut true roan filly foal
.
Summer is extremely gaited and is not lateral.
Her foal, Sparkle is not lateral either and came with
the same sweet nature as Summer.
Summer can be sold open or in foal at the buyer's
choice. She has had just under 60 days training but
has not been ridden in several years.
This mare is a quality brood mare, an easy going,
gentle mare with a ton of potential. She is good looking,
has great legs and a willing mind. She has the potential
for being a great family horse or a special friend
to a kind owner.
Her asking price reflects her lack of experience,
not her quality. She is a mare in a million and a
bargain priced gem. We are offering her for sale for
her absentee owner who has not had time to enjoy her.
Her owner says sell, so here is your opportunity
to get a great mare at bargain basement prices. You
won't find a nicer mare with so much to offer at this
price.

Foxvangen's
Pagan
V-78
!!! DOUBLE
REGISTERED!!!
Foxvangen's Pagan is a lovely liver chestnut mare
who is a Blue Papered Missouri Foxtrotter. She was
foaled in October of 1998. Her sire went out of production
before DNA was available so he was blood typed. Her
Dam is DNA'd.
Pagan is also registered in the Foundation Foxtrotter
Heritage Association with a V-factor of 78 which means
she is just a hair under 12/16 old foundation blood.
The original blood that started the breed. She has
less than 1/4 Tennessee Walking Horse blood in her.
She is Gold Sealed which means she has been witnessed
foxtrotting at liberty.
Pagan's sire was Wildfire's Socks. Though the
name is rather plain "Fire" was not. He
was one of the most intelligent,naturally gaited horses
we have ever come across. He was bred by the late
Rollen Clarkson, the only man we have come across
who was able to standardize his horses to a type and
have them all foxtrot naturally without need of professional
training. His stock were bred as ranch horses possessed
of great athletic ability. This Fire passed down to
his daughter.
Pagan's dam is Gambler's Jasmine who can be seen
on the mare page of this web site. Jasmine is a true
old time Foxtrotting horse with a ton of rhythm and
a solid build. She passed these qualities along to
her daughter. Pagan is a stout, strong mare even though
she stands only 14.2 hands. Perfect size for most
women. She has an awesome neck and a great hip. When
she fist went into training she started right off
flat walking and foxtrotting naturally. She is not
the fastest horse but she is steady and smooth. She
has shown no spook and will go anywhere she is pointed.
Pagan has a natural head nod and carries a big tail.
The photos below were taken when she had been ridden
only two weeks. She is a natural and will just get
better with use.
Pagan has a blemish on one hind leg where she
tangled with a wire as a youngster. Her asking price
reflects that. She requires a rider who has moderate
skills and who is not rough handed or prone to aggressive
use of spurs etc. Pagan will do whatever she is asked
but she will not tolerate abuse.
Pagan has produced three foals and makes a very
good brood mare. She was bred to a palomino and white
tobiano three consecutive times. As a result she produced
two palomino and white spotted fillies who are dark
gold and white and a palomino colt that is a soft
gold dapple. All three are prized by their owners
and brought good prices. Pagan puts great minds and
solid bodies on her offspring.
Pagan was started late under saddle because we
didn't need another riding horse at the time. Since
she was blemished we thought to just keep her for
brood. Once she was started under saddle,however,
we found how much we had been missing. If she does
not sell she will become my personal riding mare because
she is steady, smooth, and has a show quality foxtrot
naturally. All she needs is more miles put on her.
Pagan respects a confident rider. It is not that
she does anything radical but she tends to take charge
if her rider does not take charge. She is funny really
but to make the best horse of her she needs someone
who will pay attention to what they are doing until
this mare has more miles on her. She is too smart
for her own good really but that is what makes her
such fun! She also learns tricks easily. At one point
she was trained to dance in place and she will pick
her feet up on command. She can open doors and gates
and is utterly fearless.
If you are looking for a fun horse with a lot
of natural ability and spunk who also has a ton of
personality, here she is!
Pagan was bred this spring so she may be in foal.
Sale price is as is. She may or may not have conceived.
