I bought Willie two years ago from Harley Erickson in Norwich, CT. Willie originally came from the Kuntz Ranch in ND, the foal of Painted Canyon II and Black Turned In, who is by Crazy Horse.
My wife and I have traveled all around the eastern half of the US with our horses, riding and exploring trails in different states. At the time of purchase, Willie was still green with only two months of training. I picked him up on my way to our second home in TN. After riding him for a couple weeks there on the trails in Big South Fork Nat'l River and Rec Area, we continued our trail riding vacation to Golden Hills Resort in MO, to my wife's mother's farm in Callao, MO, then on to Hocking Hills in OH where we spent another week of trail riding before returning home to VT.
Of all the horses my wife and I have owned, none have equaled Willie in personality. He makes us laugh every day. He is curious about everything, not afraid of anything, loves people and would rather spend time with us than the herd, he loves to swim and will become completely submerged (including his head) and will come up blowing bubbles and a spray of water out his nose. He will play tag and chases my wife around and between the trees. Willies loves to experience people food, and will back himself up to anyone who is willing to rub his behind.
Next summer 2009, Willie will be honoring the Nokota breed by participating in Best of America by Horseback's Border-to-Border Ride with Tom Seay and his crew. We will be riding for six weeks through NE, SD, and over the border into ND educating other riders and the general public along the way about the Nokota horses and the Nokota Horse Conservancy. Check beck during the summer for updates on Willie's big adventure!

It has been a fast 5 years since Palouse came to me as a Christmas present. We have had some exciting times together just getting ourselves together as a team. Now he events, foxhunts, and goes on trails like a perfect gentleman. He is the most sure footed, wise, handy horse I have ever owned and I would love to have another Nokota!

We are the proud owners of Chico, a grey Nokota gelding. We didn't set out to get a Nokota. Rather, Chico chose us. While visiting our friend, Betty Lester, my 10 year old daughter, Kat, a beginner rider, and still rather timid around horses, wandered out into Betty's pasture to visit the horses. While chatting with Betty, I looked up to see Kat at the pasture gate, her face beaming with happiness, with a handsome little grey horse at her side. The horse was wrapping his head around her, and following her about, adorable with his thick black forelock and expressive face. Kat was petting and hugging him - not timid or fearful at all. Kat looked up at me, with such an expression of joy, and said "Mom, can we buy him, please!!!". We thank Betty very much for all of her help in making Chico a part of our family. Nokotas are definitely different from any other breed I've ever dealt with - Chico is almost human in his expressiveness. He is unfailingly gentle with Kat and with my 4 year old twin sons. He is challenging, talented, and oh so smart. He has been a very special addition to our family. When I see Kat's joy when she did her first canter bareback and jumped her first fence ever on Chico, "her wild pony", I know we are so lucky to have him.

What If?
What if the world did not spin?
What if there were races, but no one to win?
What if there was no such thing as Lewis and Clark?
What if God never told Noah to build an ark?
What if the Nokotas had no Leo and Frank?
What if the Nokotas had no one to thank?
What if Kat didn’t have Chico or Chico have Kat?
If the Nokotas were gone, would that be that?
What if the Nokotas were long since gone?
Dying with them the rituals and songs?
What if the Nokotas were just another breed?
Like any other plant in the Garden of Eve?
What if we knew that all that was true?
I’d back away from life, wouldn’t you?

One of the first Nokotas in PA, Leo is currently working at Fair Hill Stables which is located in Fair Hill Natural Resource Management Area. He is ridden by Jen Facciolo as a lead horse on trails, some of which have been as long as 3 hours. He is also doing ring work, and I hope to see him try his first dressage test soon. He is the Nokota Ambassador to Fair Hill, MD.
A more recent Nokota acquisition is Teddy, shown here with Holly Searles, who has happily agreed to ride, train, and use Teddy to promote the Nokota breed at area events. Teddy was captured in Theodore Roosevelt National Park as a yearling in 2000 and then purchased and trained by Ed Kuntz. In 2003 Teddy, along with a load of other Nokotas, was transported to Pennsylvania where Margaret Odgers then continued his training. Upon introduction to Teddy, I responded immediately to his quiet temperament and made arrangements to bring him home. Teddy shares a pasture with 33 year old Nomad, and they have become the best of companions. Teddy made his public debut at the Kimberton Fair, once again demonstrating the affinity of Nokota horses for people. I even have enough confidence in Teddy to trust him with my grandson and great niece.

Cody is a ranch type Nokota by Spud Bodean, a blue roan stallion, out of a sorrel ranch type mare. He came from Doug Moffett in Montana to Blair and Charlie Fleischmann in Pennsylvania when he was 18 months old. The Fleischmann’s had him professionally trained and Charlie
took him fox hunting a bit with Andrew's Bridge Hunt Club when he was only 3
and 4 years old. Cody had such a wonderful temperament that Charlie even
used him to pony his young son Oliver on his Nokota pony, Nipper.
I found Cody through a wonderful article about Nokotas in the local newspaper. The article was called “A Breed Apart” and featured many of the Chester County Nokotas. I had heard of Nokotas but had never seen one, so on a whim I called up Blair Fleischmann and arranged a visit to see their farm and meet their Nokotas. I was so impressed with Cody (his name was Willard then) that I ended up buying him.
Cody is a grand horse, jumps the moon and is very fancy on the flat. I have done paper chases and taken him out fox hunting with the Kimberton Hunt Club. This year, as a 6 year-old, he will do low level eventing. Cody is an all-around fun horse. It is a very special experience to have a Nokota. I wish I had room for more!
UPDATE: April 19, 2005
I just picked out a new Nokota filly to keep Cody company! She is a coming 3-year old by White Eagle with a sweet disposition. Sam Browne at Blue Goose Stables will have her for 2-3 months to give her a good start then she'll come home to Providence Farm. She'll start out as a trail horse, do some fox hunting and then when she grows up a bit, start her dressage career. She really has that 'WOW' factor!

Newt and I have been hunting - way in the back - with Mr. Stewart's Cheshire Foxhounds. He's a star, and even goes quietly in the new bitless bridle, which is gentler than a snaffle. (The bossy among the hunt lectured me plenty about that not being ENOUGH in control, and plus I didn't even have a martingale!) I haven't come off him since the third time I backed him. Still a challenging horse, he's taking good care of me, and redeeming the image he created of Newton the Killer Nokota. The amazing Roddy Strang deserves all the credit for turning him into the stellar animal he is.
I always thought if he had bigger nostrils, he could be another Smarty Jones, if he could only run.
Last night, stressed about money and deadlines, I went out and spent an hour with him snuggling. None of the other horses came around, but Newt, of course, came galloping when he saw me. We nuzzled each other until the world was perfect.
(Bonnie is a famous cartoonist living in Chester County with her husband Bill, her poodle Mattie, and their 3 horses.)

Jiggy is a big (15.3 hands) black ranch type Nokota horse, and I have owned him for two and a half years. He is truly the best. He is 12 years old, and had a busy life on a ranch in McClusky, N.D. before I stumbled upon him at a sales barn in western Massachusetts, and the rest is history. Jiggy is very friendly (loves people), curious, spirited, and can also be stubborn.
We mainly trail ride, but also do ring work. I am so impressed with the Nokota horse and would get another in an instant if I needed to. Jiggy is living on our small farm with two buddies, Ali (Morgan) and Scat (Q.H.), and loving it, and of course Jiggy is the boss. Thanks Nokota Horse Conservancy, you are doing a fabulous job to keep this breed going. Good luck in the future.
Angie Evans
Teddy after a short time in Mississippi and some meticulous grooming.
April, 2004.
Teddy, formerly known as Cool Mist, has been renamed to recognize his roots in Theodore Roosevelt National Park, and was a Christmas surprise for 12-year-old Angie. As a result, Teddy has moved from Chester County, PA to Mississippi. He is currently being ridden by Angie's older sister, Emily Rose, who is finishing up the wonderful training begun by a great Nokota friend, Katy Schrader.
Emily Rose was first impressed by Teddy's quiet demeanor while Katy was training him at True Prospect Farm in West Grove, PA. This training only lasted a little over one week, but in this very short time Teddy progressed very rapidly. He went from a round pen to a bonafide trail ride, met a new pony pasture mate, came to enjoy the massive barn which included his own stall, and learned the benefits of being hosed down with cool water on a hot summer day.
Months later, Teddy returned to True Prospect to continue his learning. He seemed very comfortable with his familiar surroundings and was wonderful and willing when only moments later he was taken to the indoor arena to "learn" to jump (he practiced jumping at home from one pasture to the next, but never left the area). The next evening when Emily Rose came to jump Teddy the two of them took a moment to get to know each other; Emily Rose is a kind rider and Teddy quickly placed his trust in her steady hand and light leg aids. She guided him across a few jumps that Katy set up, and he gave his all and won Emily's confidence that he really was the perfect pony for her young sister.
As any concerned Mom I had to be sure that Teddy went on to have a good life, and I am satisfied that he is in a great place and in the company of wonderful people.
Teddy and Angie,
complete with a typical extremely effective and dense Nokota winter coat.

I became part of the Nokota family earlier this year (2006) when I adopted Lokota Sioux from her previous owner, Jeanette Blewitt. She is my first horse and I am glad we picked each other. I was lucky to meet the Blewitts when they moved their operation to our community (see www.mbcuttinghorses.com).

I purchased my first blue roan Nokota mare in the fall of 1996 from Frank Kuntz. A year later I bought a second brown & white paint mare. Over the years I have raised nine colts from these mares, mainly blue and red roans. Very nice to work with and both mares are excellent mothers. Give us a call if you are interested in starting your own herd of Nokotas. You too can own a piece of history!

Tokada Hawk, aka Kody
I am the proud owner of a 3 year old blue roan overo Nokota - Takoda Hawk. He has done amazing things in the year I have owned him; traveled all the way from North Dakota, met all new people and horses, learned to clip, load, lift his feet, have new people on his back, neck-rein, stay inside the fence! Yep, he's come a long way.

Sarah Werkmeister taking Lakita for a spin, November of 2002.
While I have been involved with Nokota horses for many years, I have only been an owner since the fall of 1999. I acquired Belle and her daughter, Lakita as an investment and a favor and never looked back. While both are broke to ride, Lakita has been a favorite among both family and friends. She bounds through snow drifts and will gladly tackle any obstacle she comes to. She's a trooper and has more recently proven her ability as a mother, too. First Star arrived late in April '03 and tamed quickly due to her mother's disposition and easy nature. I look forward to YEARS of enjoyment with my Nokotas!!

Lakita was immediately an excellent mother and has settled into the role
of brood mare rather well.

I came to the Kuntz Ranch in June of 2000 as an experimental volunteer, and haven't been gone for long since. I fell in love with the Nokota horses and the battle to save them and now have a small herd of my own. What constantly blows my mind while watching or working with Nokota horses is their athletics, intelligence, and honesty. I am by no means a good rider, but do a fair bit of riding on Shelly Hauge's little mare, Lakita, who has taught me more things than any other horse and most people. She is nothing unusual for a Nokota, just a cross mare of mostly Traditional breeding and average type, but her endurance is unbelievable, she can handle any obstacle, and she is always thinking ahead and doing her best to keep us both out of trouble. Her abilities far exceed my own, and my only regret is that I can not nearly harness her full potential. The Nokota horses are truly adapted to life on the plains and in the badlands and have no match on their own turf. If you are looking for any of the characteristics that life in the badlands require: endurance, intelligence, social skills, jumping ability, hardiness, and incredible bone and hoof structure, I would strongly recommend a Nokota and would be glad to answer any questions that you may have. Thank you for visiting the Nokota Horse Conservancy website.

I became a proud Nokota owner in the summer of 2003 and again in 2004. The first horse I got was First Star; she was a birthday gift from my mother.
My second was a gift from my soul sister, Dr. Castle McLaughlin. She gave me her beloved "Easter".
Although my life has always been intertwined with the Nokotas, it means so much more to be an owner. These amazing horses never cease to amaze me with all their skills and willingness to learn. I used to think it would be awesome to ride a thoroughbred, but now I realize how blessed I am to be able to ride a Nokota!
I plan on getting a small band of my own and sharing these horses with the rest of the world. The Nokotas deserve to be loved, cared for, and saved!!

The boys' (as they are affectionately known) are strawberry roan Range Rider, a 7 yr. old gelding and blue roan Indigo Warrior, a 5 yr. old gelding. Indi arrived first, only to envelop my heart - which led me 2 years later to Ranger! Both are under saddle and make incredible trail horses, which is my first passion. This is the third summer I have been riding Indi and he is wonderfully soft and light and is my go-anywhere-do-anything horse. Ranger, who ran wild at the ranch in Linton until he was 6 years old, is just a few months under saddle and is quickly becoming a go-anywhere-do-anything horse as well. He loves to just go and go and like Indi (and I suspect most Nokotas!) has THE fanciest trot - Boy! can they move! Being an untouched older horse, I wasn't sure what challenges we would face getting started, but every challenge I present to him he is up to and overcomes with style! Both are pure joy!

Sue Fraser and Waka Nambe (Poster Boy)
Somewhere in the Wilds of Colorado
by Margaret Odgers
Poster Boy is a particularly special Nokota to me, as he is the full brother to our very own Chico. (See story of Kat and Chico above). In August of 2003, Leo and Ed Kuntz brought a load of Nokotas to Pennsylvania to be sold and among them was Poster. I asked, and Leo agreed, to let me take Poster home and work on finding him just the most perfect home.
Sue Fraser of Colorado had been searching for a young “prospect” for Dressage and also had an interest in Distance Riding. She had come across the Nokota website a while back, and was very intrigued. She found their hardiness appealing and their history inspiring. But, as a rare breed, Nokotas are not the easiest to find, especially one started under saddle.
I had advertised Poster for sale on Dreamhorse.com. I wasn’t entirely sure I could part with this truly gorgeous boy with a heart of gold, so when I got a phone call from Sue, the very day Poster’s ad went online, I was rather nonchalant about selling him. Sue told me when she saw Poster’s picture, she just about fell out of her chair. Cupid’s arrow had struck her through the heart.
Sue and I commenced about a six week long process of lengthy emails and phone calls. She was already certain Poster was “The One”, even before she saw this gorgeous boy on video. Truly, nothing less than Sue’s absolute enthusiasm could have convinced me to send our very special Poster Boy 1600 miles away. But convince me she did!
Sue has renamed Poster. He is now known as Waka Nambe, an Indian name, meaning “Hand of God”. It is a beautiful name that honors his background. Though it was with many tears I said goodbye to Chico’s little brother, I am so thrilled with his lovely new home and his wonderful new owner, whom I now consider a friend and a member of my “Nokota” extended family.

My name is Lorraine Ribas (Rain) and I reside in Colorado City, CO with my husband, Eddie, our children and several Nokotas. I first met Little Joe (Jack) over Memorial Day weekend 2005, while visiting dear friends in Minot, ND. Jack lived on Minot AFB and my friend was anxious to introduce me and let me know that he was for sale. My heart melted with each second and two weeks later, after convincing my husband that I HAD to have him, Jack was living with me in the mountains of Colorado. January 2006 saw the arrival of three more Nokotas to our Colorado home. A traditional red roan stallion/colt out of Lakota Dancer, who we named Spirit. A coming two-year-old NPC blue roan mare out of Teddy and Lipid named Windy. And last but not least was Thunder, a part-blood red roan (now gelding) out of Zip and Painted Crop. Then came September 2006 and the arrival of the youngest member of our little herd. Her name is Kita and is a coming yearling black and white overo NPC by Smoke Signal, a Grandpa Smoke son.
We purchased 35 acres of land in southern CO near the old ghost town of Mustang CO, which seems appropriate given our Nokota connection, and moved to the property full-time in November. Then December 2006 brought the worst snow and blizzard we had ever witnessed. The snow in some places was 6 ft deep. The horses suffered a bit, as access was limited, but ended up coming through fine. The Nokota is a hearty horse and I positively love them. I am putting together a website for our Nokotas and here is a temporary site that has info and pics, http://sitekreator.com/corockgirl/index.html Check it often for photos of ranch and horse progress.

As an avid driver, I was interested in finding a pony-sized driving partner. I found an ad for a pony cross of unknown parentage. When I went to see her, I was pleasantly surprised to see quality and a very special mind. I bought her, brought her home and began training her.
Adena Ray driving Claire.
She had been a companion horse, so she had no training (other than ground manners). Within a few days, she was ground driving, and she was hitched to a vehicle within a month. There is no doubt that she is the most intelligent horse I've ever met.
I was so impressed with her mind that I began a quest to find her breeding. After lots of searching, I found out what she is: Nokota (Peace Pipe) X Chincoteague Pony.
Claire has continued to wildly exceed my expectations. She's competing in harness and improves every time I drive her. She is a great ambassador for the breed: where she goes, people ask what she is.
My answer? She is EXTRAORDINARY!

My husband, Brian and I first learned of the Nokota horses from an article in Cowboys and Indians Magazine. Naturally, we were taken by their plight, and captivated by their beauty and spirit. The magazine article pointed us in the direction of The Nokota Horse Conservancy's on-line website where we did more research, saw more photos and got in touch with Shelly Hauge and Frank Kuntz. Shelly and Frank's informative answers to our questions, and their obvious enthusiasm and devotion to their equine charges, had us wanting to meet them and the Nokotas in person. We already knew we wanted to bring a couple of these amazing horses into our lives.
Brian and I, accompanied by our daughter, Kathlyn, stopped at Linton, ND on our road trip to Cody, Wyoming. Within hours of meeting Shelly and Frank and viewing the Nokotas in their natural habitat, an awe-inspiring sight, I had chosen, with my daughter's help, a gorgeous yearling stallion named Lakita's Moon. It took Brian a bit longer to make his choice, though we both figured we couldn't go wrong no matter what choices we made, he picked out a striking blue roan colt he has since named Smokey.
Lakita's Moon and Smokey have only been in their new home here in Pearce, Arizona a short time, but already they've become part of our family! We can't wait to see what the future holds for us.

I met Leo Kuntz at Silver Tip Ranch near Yellowstone Park about four years ago. Leo introduced me to the Nokota breed and I was impressed. In October 1999, I went to Linton to view the Nokota herd in full and possibly purchase a horse. Leo selected five yearlings that he thought I would be interested in. I chose a pure black yearling stud. His name came to be Smokey. Smokey impressed me by the way he traveled and kept his head up. He looked like he had spirit.
Paxton, Ethan, and Smokey
The next summer I took Smokey into Silver Tip Ranch. There, I was able to start working with him daily, molding him into the horse he is today. I currently use him to work cattle, pack into the mountains, and go hunting on. My next project for Smokey and I is to teach him to be roped off of. Smokey has turned out to be a horse who has incredible stamina and heart, doing anything you ask him to do.

In the future, I would like to buy other Nokota horses for my own personal use.

We have been horse owners for many years, with a specific interest in all types of mustang horses. After purchasing our Kiger mustang mare, we were doing some Internet research on the Kiger breed and stumbled across the Nokota horses. After visiting the webpage of Rockin' Bar H many times to learn as much as possible about this impressive breed, we contacted the Offermanns to learn more about their magnificent Nokota horses and to purchase our first Nokota gelding, Shadow Dancer. As it worked out, they actually had two yearling geldings for sale and Dan couldn't resist the beautiful, yet mischievous, Lakota Chief. This quickly led to the purchase of our second Nokota horse, both of which are now two-year-olds. "The Boys," as they are nicknamed, were born and raised together on the Offermann farm and it has been an amazing amount of fun for us to watch them play, often like band stallions, drawing attention to themselves from neighbors and from those passing by. As we have been learning and applying the unique training methods taught to us by Dale Offermann, we are seeing the immense potential that lies within our two awesome Nokotas. Our future plans for "our boys" is to enjoy them as trail horses and to take the opportunity to advance the exposure of the Nokota breed to others we meet along the trail.
