The Fjordhorses of Bluebird Lane Fjords

At Bluebird Lane we breed and develop Fjordhorses for Sport and Pleasure. Our goal is an athletic Fjord who is well-suited to a variety of disciplines. As active participants in the sport and art of dressage, athletic ability and movement matter a great deal to us. At the same time, as breeders, breed type and character remains our first guiding principle.

We are pleased to introduce you to the members of our Fjord herd! Our herd of Fjord horses usually numbers between six and twelve individuals. Besides Prisco and our core group of mares, we generally have a few young horses we are bringing along, and one or two sales prospects in the works. The details of each member of our herd can be accessed by clicking the horse names on the tabs below.

Helix was sired by the well known and respected Norwegian-import stallion Felix and out of the Dutch-imported first-premium mare Cindy. Helix is being raised at Bluebird Lane as a stallion prospect.

Both Cindy and Felix have a long list of accomplishments as quality producers, including each having had two offspring winning Gold Medals from the Netherlands Fjord Studbook! Actually four of the six Gold Medals awarded at the Ontario Fjord Show went to horses sired or produced by Felix or Cindy! What an accomplishment. The colt Helix brings these two desirable lines together and we look forward to his future with a lot of enthusiasm!

Helix's dam Cindy was the first broodmare at Bluebird Lane and her contribution has been huge. Soon after we got Cindy, we were pleased and surprised to be approached by total strangers at our first Fjord show to be told that they greatly admired Cindy for the quality of her offspring. Having now had the opportunity ourselves to work with so many of Cindy's babies, we know what they were talking about!

Cindy was imported from Holland, a 1st premium daughter of Ostar and Louise (a model mare and daughter of Alfred). Ostar is a sire of many outstanding mares, including the elite mare Viola. Cindy is the only Ostar daughter presently living in North America. Cindy has many ster and model mares in both her maternal and paternal background. Cindy's maternal grandmother, Gea, is a ster mare whose father was the elite Danish stallion Ooigaard Damgaard. On her sire's side is the excellent stallion Westman (sire of her paternal grandfather Einar). Westman was responsible for some of the best foundation stock in Holland. After producing her last foal at age 23, Cindy has now been retired from breeding. She is still healthy, sound and in active use as a pleasure driving and riding horse with our friends Bob and Denise Ward in Rockwood Ontario.
