Hennigan Friesians

About Us

Shawn Hennigan  started  working with Friesians in 1989 with four young horses sent in for training. At  that time there were only a handful of Friesians in the Northeast. 

Shawn trained  the horses to ride and drive, and in 1992 the Kent family
purchased Marinus and  Moike. They were the beginning of a new journey based on beautiful black  horses. The family was enchanted with the breed, and transformed into true  believers that Friesians were the one and only horse to have.

 Shawn and the Kent family were educators about the breed through exhibitions and shows.  Shawn, Julie, and Marybeth showed Moike & Marinus riding and driving across New England and beyond. People used to ask us, "are those Percherons?"  There were only 400 members of the Friesian Horse Association of America at that time, which were kept on index cards in a shoebox! Now FHANA has an office in Kentucky with over 9,000 horses registered.

We  import high quality horses with the goal of matching the
right horse with the  right owner. We bring in horses suited for breeding and
different disciplines, including driving, dressage, saddleseat, and pleasure.
We also have a variety of  young colts and fillies. It is important to us that
each new owner is happy and  comfortable with his or her new horse. And, our
horses are loved and well taken care of.
 
We like  to educate about the Friesian, so people have knowledge about the breed they are  buying. We continue to provide information  and guidance after the horse leaves our farm. We like to follow how they are
doing, and stay a small part of their  lives. It is very easy to become attached
to all these horses, and it is always  hard to see them leave.
