Barnaby Creek Ponies is a family run operation owned by Erika Carlson and my 2 children, Cody & Samantha Carlson. My mom, Sue Naccarato, my niece Alexys Hall, and my friend Shannon Flaherty are also a major part of our ranch.

All ponies are trained by me (Erika Carlson). I concentrate mainly on youth ponies and helping youth exhibitors get started in ponies. I train classics, moderns amd miniatures. I love to work with children and I currently have 7 children in training with me. I do take adult clients as long as they don't mind lots of kids. So if you are looking for a great trainer with a flair for fun, give us a call. If you need a great pony to show, check out the sale page or e-mail us.

I train for driving, showmanship, halter, halter and driving obstacle. $300 per month for Shetland ponies and miniatures; $400 for welsh, hackney and full size horses. Extra fees for hauling to shows and showing your horse.

Here are some of my kids and their ponies:
