Thanks for shopping with us this weekend!

Wow, what a great weekend we had for our after Thanksgiving sale. The weather cooperated and we saw so many of our long time friends along with some folks who came in to check out our store for the first time. And thanks to all of our out of state (and international) friends who called in orders or emailed us to get in on the sale. Along with our other blessings, we sure are grateful for our many wonderful customers. We wish you all a safe and happy holiday season.
If you missed the sale...you can still catch some bargains if you check out our Wire Horse Weekly WOW specials that run weekly, beginning every Monday morning. We have some terrific savings on great items again this week so be sure to look in every Monday so that you don't miss out.
Until next time...keep horsin' around!

Good-bye QH Congress, Hello Equine Affaire!

Wow, what a great time we had a Quarter Horse Congress! Thanks to everyone who stopped by to check out our booth. We added to our decor this year and want to thank everyone for their positive feedback. We thought the booth looked great but it was nice to hear that so many of you did also! We are already looking forward to next year's Congress!

With Congress behind us, we had a short time to unload the trailers and then repack for Equine Affaire in Springfield, Mass! Julie, Jenny S. and company are already there getting our 2 booths set up and ready to go for this weekend. If you are planning on attending this wonderful event, please stop by one or both of put booths & say HI! We are in the same place as always in the Better Living Center (Booth D right across from Bit A Britain) and in our new booth in the Young Building (Booths 1903 & 1904).

WIRE HORSE 10th Anniversary Sale!

Wow! It is hard to believe that it has been 10 years since we opened The Wire Horse in our Lennon, Michigan location. The Wire Horse began as a small home-based business with Julie sewing show clothing, hoods and tail tubes and went by the name of "JP Horse Products". Jenny became a dealer for the newly founded Royal Wire Equine products and Julie added a few more people to help her with the sewing as the demand grew for her quality made products. Before long, the business outgrew Julie's basement, and it was time to find a building with more room for sewing and storage. When the property in Lennon became the new base of operations, Julie & Jenny decided to add some tack and other horse supplies into the mix.

And so here we are, 10 years in Lennon, with a staff of 10 full and part-time employees...and several more that pitch in during trade show season and sale time. We have added the original building to give us more space for the showroom, enlarged the sewing room and give much needed storage space. The Wire Horse carries a full line of clothing, equipment and supplies for riders of every discipline. We attend many large trade shows throughout the year, including our 2700 square foot booth at the All American Quarter Horse Congress in Columbus Ohio. Check out the article in September's Saddle Up magazine for the whole Wire Horse story.

We are gearing up for our 10th Anniversary Sale this coming weekend ( Sept. 10, 11 & 12) and are looking forward to seeing friends both old and new. Make plans to visit us in person...or shop on-line. And thanks to you all for making it a great 10 years serving your equine needs. Here's to another terrific 10 years... and more!

Annual Boot Sale in Full Swing!

It's June so our annual boot sale is going strong! We added a new element this year...replacing the balloon sale with a fishing theme. Customers in the store "fish" in the fish bowl at the register for their discount once their purchase has been made. Out of town customers can call the store on our toll-free number (877-322-8503) and one of our staff will fish in the bowl for you. Discounts range from 10% to 50% and are valid on all regular priced boots.
We have an AWESOME selection of boots from Ariat, Justin, Dan Post, Laredo, Roper and many more. You can be sure we have a boot for you!

Happy Easter!

With Easter right around the corner, it really does feel like spring! The weather here in Michigan is warming up, the snow is gone and things are greening up. Finally! We are looking forward to packing up the winter stuff and getting all those reminders of colder weather out of sight for the next few months! That makes more room for our beautiful 2010 show clothes and all our fun casual jeans and tops.
Look for us on the road at Equine Affair in Columbus, Ohio in early April and the Midwest Horse Fair in Madison, Wisconsin in mid April. Better yet, visit our store in Lennon, Michigan to see our huge selection of everything horsey!
All of us at the Wire Horse wish you a safe and Happy Easter!
