2008 Futurity & Pleasure Show
After being haunted with rain the last couple of years, the 2008 DCHA Futurity & Pleasure Show saw plenty of sunshine. The Benefit Stallion Service Auction Weanling Futurity Class had 19 participants, all hoping for a piece of what was probably the largest payout in the history of the show. The judge had a tough time, as the class was filled with many quality weanlings to choose from. Placings were as follows:

Congratulations to the winners, and all who participated in the show! In 2009, DCHA will be doing things a bit differently. The 2009 Benefit SSA Catalog will hopefully be on our website, making it accessible for more people, and saving the cost of printing so many copies. Diane Sackett has been the mastermind behind the monumental task of organizing the Catalog these past nine years, next year she will have a few helpers. The Benefit SSA Weanling Futurity Class will not change, but all the Open Futurity Classes will become Stakes classes, so there will be no pre-entries to worry about, you can just enter the day of the show. We are hoping this will encourage more entries in those classes.
Thanks to all who have participated & supported the Open Futurities over the years. A big thank you goes to Jenny Juliuson, who has taken care of all of the paperwork that goes with the Open Futurities for the last 12+ years, and I think Dick Thomas did it for the first 1 or 2 years before that.
DCHA would like to thank our Open Futurity sponsors, the Mayville Animal Clinic, Sackett Equine Services, Nutrena, and Brandt Blanket Company, and also the Wisconsin State Horse Council, who is a major sponsor for the Benfit SSA Weanling Futurity, among others. And let’s not forget the Stallion owners for their generosity, they are the foundation of our Benefit Futurity.
So mark your calendars for the 2009 Benefit Stallion Service Auction & Tack Swap, it will be held February 8th, at the Juneau Community Center in Juneau, WI. For more information, e-mail Lori Helmer at helmer@powerweb.net, phone 1-920-382-0277, and watch the Wisconsin Horseman’s News for upcoming information.

Friesian Keuring
Friesian Keuring by Pam Pritchard
The Friesian Keuring was held on September 26th at the beautiful Heartland Stables in Custer, WI. Once again the weather was spectacular and the Friesian Horses were superb.
The Keuring is the result of strict breeding rules from the Friesian Horse Association of North America (FHANA) and the results of this breeding program are excellent horses, promising foals and dedicated people who breed this magnificent horse.
The Keuring also displayed many traditions and protocols that go back more than 100 years. These Inspections or Keurings as they are called in Dutch, have been held each year in the Netherlands plus many other countries.
Categories of Friesians included stallions, mares, geldings, colts and fillies. The horses were judged on racial type, conformation, the walk and trot. Prizes included 1st, 2nd and 3rd Premies (placings) and Grand and Reserve Champion.
Charlie and I brought our 3 month old filly with hopes of getting her a premium rating, which would get her in the foalbook. She is out of our 17h Erik daughter and by the World Champion Friesian stallion, Mintse.
Our little girl put on quite the show and earned a 1st Premie and was then chosen as Grand Champion filly. This puts her in the top 5% in the World.
This has been a hectic year for us which included driving our Friesian gelding, breeding mares and preparing for the Keuring. We are now are line driving one of our 3 year old mares and hope to compete with her in driving classes next year.
I’m looking forward to the Fall colors and the seclusion of Winter. We always welcome any members that would like to drop in and see our Friesians.

A BLONDE GOES HORSEBACK RIDING even though she has had no experience.
She mounts the horse unassisted and the horse immediately springs into motion. It gallops along at a steady and rhythmic pace, but the blonde begins to slide from the saddle. She can’t seem to get a firm grip. She tries to throw her arms around the horse's neck, but she slides down the horse's side anyway. The horse gallops along, seemingly impervious to its slipping rider. Finally, giving up her frail grip, the blonde attempts to leap away from the horse and throw herself to safety.
Unfortunately, her foot has become entangled in the stirrup; she is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as her head is struck against the ground over and over. As her head is battered against the ground, she is mere moments away from unconsciousness when to her great fortune... Frank, the Wal-Mart greeter, sees her dilemma and unplugs the horse from the outlet.
And you thought all they did was say hello!
