About Little Bit Of Sunshine Farm

Susan Milovich, owner, trainer and instructor of LBS Farm, began riding over 35 years ago.  Most of her training was in hunters with dressage mixed in throughout the years.  A few years ago she changed her focus to combined training and dressage, and has been pursuing dressage training from both local and national top trainers including Trish Hammer, Jackie Paxton, Reese Koffler-Stanfield, Michael Barisone, Jane Savoie, and Ken Acebel.  Most recently she trained and competed her horse Tidbit to 2 years of top MSEDA awards, including 2006 High Point Eventing Mare, Big Bear's Elijah for 2007 top MSEDA awards, and her horse Sugar 'n Spice for 2008 top MSEDA awards,  including 2008 High Point Eventing Mare, as well as top honors on the Queen City Dressage Circuit and from The Dressage Company, and national rankings with USEA and USEF in dressage and eventing.  Her students also show in combined training, dressage and hunters.  
 
LBS Farm is also beginning a Connemara Pony breeding program.  After much research, the Connemara Pony was selected for its quiet temperament and outstanding atheletic ability, making it an ideal mount for both beginners and advanced riders, from young children to "seasoned" adults.  Though Connemaras may grow to be over 15 hands and still be within the breed standard, our focus is on ponies that will remain under 14.2, making them eligible to compete in all disciplines as a pony.  We are also breeding crosses that we feel will make outstanding mounts in a variety of disciplines.  It has been our dream to have a stallion of our own one day, and now we have 2 prospects that we are very excited about.  We have a 2008 colt, LBS Ciaran, by Fergus out of our own Big Bear's Shawnessee, and we have just acquired the 2006 colt Loughin Jack Henry.  We have high hopes for both of these boys and look forward to seeing them continue to grow and develop.  We also have several other Fergus offspring and look forward to having more foals soon.  Our goal is to produce high quality ponies that are raised with love and a respect for their human friends, resulting in exceptional competition ponies and family companions.

At our farm, we strive for a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that is condusive to learning while having fun with our equine (and other) companions.  We endeavor to expose our students to a variety of experiences, making them well-rounded and prepared riders, handlers and owners.
We hope you will come by soon and meet everyone!
