MDHT Starter III and MCTA Jenny Camp

We have been out and about at Katie Wherley Equestrian! Mariah went out for her first outing at KWE and was attentive and quiet, bringing home a blue in Dressage Text of Choice at MDHT Starter III. And Allyson just came home from a very successful outing with Queen of the North, also snagging a blue ribbon in Open Novice!

Stalls opening

We have TWO stalls opening at Katie Wherley Equestrian. First stall is available now and the second will be available mid-August. Come learn, ride and work at our beautiful facility on 25 acres located in Middletown, MD. We have space for a training board or a sales horse or just come board and enjoy the farm. There is also an opportunity for someone who would like to work off their board in trade for chores.

KWE offers instruction in eventing, jumpers, hunters and dressage at any level! All breeds welcome- though we love out OTTBs! We focus on developing achievable goals and perfecting the details to build confidence for horse and rider. We have a gorgeous Amish built barn, 12×12 stalls, a wash stall with hot and cold water, an indoor and outdoor arena and a mile long trot track.

Stablemates Saddlery

Stablemates Saddlery ensures that both my horses and I stay up-to-date with the latest styles from renowned brands such as Irideon Riding Wear, Woof Wear, Horseware, Charles Owen, and the list goes on. They offer an extensive range of products, and if they don’t have what you’re seeking, they are more than willing to place an order for you. Recently, I inquired about a specific half pad I had been searching for, and they promptly informed me that it would be available within a week. I appreciate the convenience they provide in making it effortless to support local businesses while finding everything I need. #ShopLocal made easy with Stablemates Saddlery!

Voltaire Design USA & Canada

Achieving the perfect saddle fit for an OTTB like my Grateful can be quite challenging. However, I consider myself extremely fortunate to have the support of the saddle representatives at Voltaire Design USA & Canada. Their responsiveness is unparalleled, and they go above and beyond by accommodating the necessary adjustments to match Grateful’s evolving back. Not only are Voltaire saddles my absolute favorite to sit in, but the dedication and expertise of their representatives are truly unbeatable.
