Stoney Wood Friesians
    Lugana
  Aka "Princess LuLu"



 


Lugana is a beautiful, 1996, FHS-registered STAR mare standing 16'2 hands.   She was imported from Germany as a two-year old and received a second premium.   She has mostly been a brood mare, having two colts (Willie and Dakota) and two fillies (Indigo and Rayna).  Dakota has been approved as breeding stallion for FPZ.  This is a HUGE honor for Lugana!

  

Lugana arrived at Stoney Wood Friesians in May 2004 and attended her first dressage schooling show with Jennifer riding her at introductory level.  Lugana went camping in Euer Valley and participated with the quadrille at the Sacramento Horsemens Association Benefit BBQ. 

In October 2004, Lugana completed her conditioning and training  to prepare her for the FHS keuring.  The results were worth the effort and expense as Lugana was judged to be a second premium star mare.  In addition,  Lugana was awarded the "United States Reserve Champion Adult Mare " by FPZ.  We are very proud of her.   In  2005. Lugana spent most of her time being an excellent mother to Baby Rayna and then doing some trail riding as Rayna was weaned.  Lugana then spent 2006 in Utah with Rebecca Lerwill.

Lugana returned home in 2007 and has spent a year on the trails with Sue Walther.   She is a wonderful trail mount - full of energy but safe and sane.

On June 26, 2008, Lugana presented us with a gorgeous colt!  He was sold to Rebecca and Troy Lerwill from Utah.  So, Lugana and Baby  Bodie headed to Utah to relax in Rebecca's pastures.  In December Lugana  returned home to resume her life as a pleasure and trail horse!  She has already been back out on the trails at Traylor ranch, lake Folsom and Cronen ranch.  I am so happy to have her home.

I've had so many wonderful Friesian broodmares through the years, but Lugana is truly special.  She's done having babies now and will get to relax and enjoy the pampered life of a pleasure mount in beautiful Northern California.  I am so fortunate to have found this lovely mare.
