Thank you so much for all your help in looking for my 'Dream Horse'. Clara is the first horse I've ever owned and we are really bonding and learning what to expect from one another. She's my girl!

WOW Christina has taught me so so much. She has brought me so far. I am now showing at a national level and I couldnt be able to do it with out her. the most amazing thing about that is i got there on my roping horse and gymkhana horse Bobby Dunn is always trying to get people to buy. She didnt know how to jog or lope right. I have trained her to do it right with all the education possible by Christina. i cant wait to see her at the show! I am going to do everything but jump. Christina you are by far one of the best people i know!

I am a Christina Carl fan and i am 11. love MattieChristina,

Hi Christina: I love my home in Surprise. My mistress Debbie takes very good care of me and she says that I am the best horse she has ever had. Can’t wait for it to cool off some more so we can go trail riding in Wickenburg again.

Love, Hank Cody

We needed one more beginner friendly horse for our dude-string at Paria Canyon Guest Ranch. Christina chose the horse for us...aka PRINCE. Not only is he great for beginners, but our four-year old grandaughter prefers him over the other 15 horses.
The president of the company that is our largest customer came to visit and see our operation. We put him on PRINCE !!!
Thankyou for your knowledge,insight, and,especially, your integrity.

Christina,
 
I wanted to thank you for the help in getting Cheyenne to load into the trailer.With your patience, she now loads into a stock trailer as well as a two horse straight load.Since our training, I have been working with her to assure her that trailering is a fun thing to do and sheseems very receptive to it. I now can go out trailering and riding with my mom and not worry about Cheyenne not getting into a trailer.
I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for help with their horses. 
Thanks again and I will call you if/when I need any more help with Cheyenne and her "other issues"

Christina has been wonderful to work with! We can't thank her enough for her willingness to travel to the ends of the earth for us....literally!!! She has traveled to Minnesota twice now to help us in a horse deal and we have appreciated her help and expertise in finding the right horses to fit our family. THANK YOU!! We also appreciate all the phone calls and communications she helped us with as well. Christina was prompt at returning our calls and e-mails to keep us up to date and informed. She is wonderful to work with and has a gift for matching kids with the right horse. It's easy to see her passion for horses and kids and the joy she has when she's found a good match! Thanks again Christina!

Hi Christinia! Well, I have had "Levi" (AKA Mickey Blue Eyes) for just about 2-months now and cannot thank you enough for the absolutely wonderful, gentle and kind gelding! As a novice rider, you certainly paired me with the horse of my dreams. I have taken him on 4-hour trail rides weekly with a number of other friends/horses. On each and every ride, it is inevitable that one of the other horses will spook or act up...but not Levi. He is a true gentleman and treats not only the other horses with respect, but also me. I love him dearly and want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing Levi into my life. You are a true class act, Christina. May all your own dreams come true in 2009. Take care, hope to see you soon. Kim

Just a note to say that my filly fresca is still one of the perfect horses on this earth. I think of you and Tracy(the breeder) often and i can not express in words what your efforts of this filly means in my life. sincerely, skip

What an amazing horse!!!!
Thank God, thank you, and thank Amanda for gettin' the deal done.
I cannot find anything he can't, won't, or is afraid to do.
Roy is a war horse, but light as a feather. I rode him bareback without reins or bridle. He makes me look like I know what I'm doing.
Thanks again,
Gabe
Just wanted to let you know "Winchester" is a wonderful addition to our Family ! He is GREAT out on our trail rides, and loves to mess around in the arena..Thank-you for spending time with us, and giving us some riding tips.

Laura:

I have spent the last 5 days with Cristina in Flagstaff where we have worked together at Northern Arizona Riding Stables doing a "kids camp." Cristina is an excellent teacher and KNOWS how to work with kids! I am a veteran teacher of over 20 years and strongly recommend her kids' camps. With our group of 12 young girls aged 8-13, some of whom had never ridden before, she had them riding from DAY ONE and doing bareback balancing exercises on her lesson horses! Great job, Cristina! I am TRULY impressed with the concern you show for your young students as well as for the animals.

Diane:

Just want people to know,don't be deterred because a horse is 18 or over. Midnight is 20ish and is as healthy and perky as a 10yr old. An older horse has been there done that and usually is much more well balanced for younger or older riders. My husband has had spinal fusions and was advised to buy a gaited horse. Well, Midnight is HIS dream horse because she will take care of him gently and yet has tons of spunk in her. I think older horses have much to be desired and if well taken care of will last a nice long time. Again I thank Christina for the opportunity to purchase such a sweetheart of a horse.

Jennifer:

Christina is one of the few truly honest horse woman I've met. She really cares for her horses and my visit to her ranch made me a believer that good people are really still out there. I bought Casper and he is doing great, he is ornery and fat and loves his treats. My boyfriend has claimed stakes on riding Casper on the trail, he is so great even for my very nervous beginner partner. We will soon be back looking for a companion for casper!

Christina,
Thank You so much for all your effort & thoughtfullness! You helped me find my dream horse "Malibu". She is wonderful! You knew what I was looking for and called me right away when you found her. Mailbu is so gentle, sweet & what a beauty! I couldn't have asked for more in a horse. She is well trained and patient with me as I learn how to be the best "Horsey Mama" I can be. I am looking forward to many years of enjoying each other! Your ability to teach me about taking care of her and the riding instruction are priceless!
With great respect & friendship,

Hi Christina:

I do not know if you remember us or not, but we bought a grey gelding from you named "Danny" in October 2006. He has absolutely been the best horse and have had many comments from people that inquire whether or not we want to sell him. My daughter has worked very hard on him and won high point beginner western last year in 4H on him. This year she has done really well placing high point in intermediate western and beginning english in her last show. He did not seem to have any show training when we got him and my 12 year old has had to put many hours into training him. He has been a fast learner and also very patient with my daughter. Definitely a horse that I would say is worth his weight in gold. We did find out that he is very familiar with the box and probably was someone's old roping horse.

We did not initially go up to your place to look at Danny, we were looking at another one of your horses. I remember you saying that it had to be the "right fit". Well, Danny walked right up to Morgan and picked her. The two of them have been pretty much inseperatable. My younger daughter has also started riding, and he really changes gears and takes care of her. She has also won high point western beginner this year. So Danny is quite busy in the show ring showing Beginning English, Intermediate Western, and Intermediate Gymkhana with Morgan and Beginning western and Beginning Gymkhana with my younger daughter Myranda.

I tell our story to other families all the time because it seems like most people want to buy a young horse for their kids because they believe an older horse will not be fast enough, good enough, etc. Danny is proof that a 15 - 16 year old horse definitely has enough get up and go but not quite as much attitude as a younger horse. I have referred a couple of 4-H parents to you and know that you will not steer them wrong.

Thank you so much!! You really go the extra mile and do more than just sell horses. I hope all is going well in Buckeye. Hope to see you again.

I purchased two horses from Christina at the same time for my twin twelve-year-old daughters. The girls are pretty small for their age so everyone tends to overprotect them and so they don't advance. In other words, I wanted horses that would take care of them but challange them at the same time. Enter Christina. She found two great horses and we took them home to Yuma. Both were all she said they would be and more but as fate would have it one of the girls advanced so quickly that the horse was too pokey for her. Reenter Christina. She took Buckwheat back for full price toward yet another perfect match. Where she finds these horses is beyond me but she does.

My sis and her husband purchased Sugar for my kids for xmas. Just to let you know she is great and they just love her! Thanks so much for having such a great friend for them. I will definitely come back down the road!!

I just purchased my 3rd horse from Christina and he is a PERFECT match for our family! Christina represents her horses honestly. If she doesn't feel like it is a good match, she'll let you know and suggest another one. There is no pressure, her biggest concern is that you find the right horse, for you. Thanks again and if I come back for another one anytime soon, PLEASE turn me away!! :) As always, it was a pleasure...

Hi Christina:
Bocephus (my buckskin QHorse) is doing great. He is wonderful. I am having so much fun with him. We are learning together, and the best thing about him is that he does not intimidate me in the least. We are really having a good time together. He is a perfect fit for me !! He is a home-run, and he will be with me for the rest of his natural life.

Buddy (pony) is absolutely adorable. Extremely overweight though. I have had to put him on a diet. But, he is cute as a button and loves, loves, loves attention. He is so much fun to groom and walk around with. He walks with me everyday to get the mail. He now thinks it is his duty. Every once in a while I don’t take the time to halter him up after work, and when he sees me walking towards the mailbox (without him), he throws a fit – neighing, throwing his head, kicking up his heels, and he really lets me know how disappointed he is in me when I get back to the house. What a goof !!

Anyhow, it is nice to email you with nothing else to say except how good everything is with me and my horses. I hope all is good with you, too.

I have purchased two horses in the past year from Christina. She has made herself available for any questions or help I may have needed(and I have needed A LOT)! When I first met Christina, I was a timid, beginner rider but with her knowledge and disipline as a trainer, I have become a much more confident rider. I have met several people in the horse business here in AZ and I can honestly say that Christina is by far the most geniune and honest of them all. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a horse (beginner thru advanced, trail or showing),lessons, or just in need of some quality tack, you will not be disappointed! Christina, thank you again for all your help....and patience! Nina

My daughter Alex started taking riding lessons from Christina last December. Since then Alex has competed in both Western Pleasure and English events and comes home with ribbons everytime! We have bought three horses from her in the last nine months and all of them are awesome. Christina is a great instructor and represents her horses honestly and I would reccomend her to anyone looking to buy or take lessons!!

Hi Christina,

How are you doing? I had to send you some pictures of Anna and Emily with Magic and Bobbi Sox. They are doing so well with them in the shows. Emily is 6 now and she rides Bobbi everyday around the grove. She is really doing good with the game patterns – once she came back from trotting the pole pattern and she said “Bobbi just did it all herself”.

The night before the 4-H horse show, Magic got her foot stuck under the fence and lost one of her rear shoes. She wasn’t injured or anything, but the shoe was twisted so we thought Anna better let her rest just in case she did hurt. Anna (she’s 10 now) ended up having to ride Bobbi Sox and she got Reserve Champion High Point Games with her. She is such a good horse – she will go fast for Anna and slow right back down when Emily gets on.

Anna qualified for the WSCA champ show with both horses – Magic in jumping figure 8 and showmanship. Bobbi in jumping figure 8, showmanship, western horsemanship and western pleasure.

The girls also did the scoop shovel race with Bobbi – she didn’t even care that she was pulling that shovel!! It was so cool – they were the youngest ones out there and the crowd went wild. Then they did hangman and some of the horses were afraid to go by the rope, but not Bobbi – she just backed up under there and those kids did it perfect – they went slow because they didn’t want to fall off and they were only 2 seconds behind the adults that won it. It was great!! We had so many people tell us that Bobbi is worth a million!!

My nephew has been here all summer and he just loves riding Bobbi – he is 6’4” so he will need a bigger horse someday. We will definitely get a hold of you when he graduates from college – he really wants a horse of his own.
