We are starting back up! We will continue adding more to this site, but it will be a little different, Lisa is working on promoting her Online Businesses while Shawn is going to continue working around the place and riding horses! Get ready to see him in the show pen in the next year or so!

Its been awhile!

Just wanted to update everyone. We are still here, at this time "Boots" is no longer for sale. He is really a great horse and Shawn enjoys riding him too much to let him go right now.....We do have 3 left for sale at this time and depending on what Dee Dee has this next week or so, we may do a little rearranging of sale horses....be sure to let us know if you are interested in any of the ones we have available....

Its Official!!

It's Official, Shawn and Peppys Sweet Speck are the Reserve High Point winners in the State of New Mexico in Intermediate Open Reining. Shawn will be getting a buckle in November at the Awards Banquet.

Peppys Sweet Speck now available for sale!

2005-07-19T16:58:00.000-06:00

We have added Peppys Sweet Speck to our for sale horses. If you are wanting a well bred, beautiful Paint stallion take a look at him. He has proven himself enough that we feel it is time for him to go to a new home. Shawn is really getting busy with all the horses he has in training and he really does not have the time to focus on "Boots" much more since we have lots of colts to start this next fall and several client horses that need to be shown this fall. He has been started on cattle and is a natural. He will make a super Working Cow Horse, calf horse or heeling horse. Check him out on our Horse Sales Page.

Back from the APHA Paint World

2005-07-07T10:49:00.000-06:00

Well, we are back from the Paint World and it was a great experience. We did not make the finals but our first time at that big of a show is over and we can't wait till next year. We will continue on and go to as many shows as we can over the next year.
The heat and humidity was horrible and that made it hard on the horse. Also the practice times being in the middle of the night made getting enough sleep tough also.
We have another NRHA this weekend in Albuquerque and will have both Chief Dry Doc and Peppys Sweet Speck there. We are looking forward to this weekend and will let you all know.

JVJ Performance Horses is really excited about showing at the APHA world show. We have also add several new webrings that we have joined.
As we mentioned earlier, Peppys Sweet Speck is an NRHA money earner as well as being the Hi-Point Junior horse at the May FCCRA horse show. He is so talented and we are so happy with him.

APHA World Show

2005-06-15T11:18:00.000-06:00

JVJ Performance Horses is having another first. We are going to the Paint World Show with Peppys Sweet Speck. Shawn and Lisa went to the world show last year and had a booth with EQ Solutions products, but this will be a first for both Shawn and "Boots" at the World Show in competition. They will be showing in Junior Reining. Boots is a really talented young horse and we have high hopes for him, we put him on cattle for the first time last week and he took right to it. We hope to show him next year in the Jr. Working Cow Horse.

Congratulations to Wendy Miller on her purchase of "Chica" the grey part Arab mare that we had in training here at JVJ Performance Horses. We look forward to working with the two of you in the future!

Good weekend for JVJ Performance Horses!

JVJ Performance Horses had a really good weekend showing. Shawn and Chief Dry Doc took 2nd again at the June 12th AQHA horse show in Farmington, NM. Great job this weekend Shawn Layton on Chief Dry Doc and Peppys Sweet Speck!! Keep up the good work!

Santa Fe, NM NRHA Show

2005-06-12T10:44:00.000-06:00

JVJ Performance Horses is again proud to announce that Shawn Layton, our resident trainer, has had a great Saturday showing. He was in Santa Fe, NM Saturday morning at the NMRHA Frankies Spin & Win show and took a 4th in both the intermediate open and limited open classes on Peppys Sweet Speck, our 3 year old APHA stallion. This was his 1st NRHA approved show and he is a money earner, not sure how much yet, but money earned is money earned. Check out "Boots" on the Performance Horses page on our website.

Shawn then was back in Farmington on Saturday afternoon and showed Chief Dry Doc again in the senior reining at the June 11th AQHA show and took a 2nd. His run Saturday was nicer than Friday, but it was a different judge and that is what showing is all about. There is a lot of personal opinion in judging.
