STALLION STATION SCHOOLING/TRAINING HORSES FOR SALE

Dressurpferde Leistungszentrum Lodber- gen, which was organized in 2008, com- bines breeding and sport at the highest level. To achieve this goal, Harli Seifert‘s former stallion station in Lodbergen was altered as well as expanded and turned into a highly modern training center.

When it comes to advising breeders and fer- tility management for mares as well as help in marketing offspring, service is written in capital letters in Lodbergen! THE DLZ

Under the direction of Urs Schweizer dressage horses of the very best quality are also strictly selected for the sales stables in the perfectly equipped training center in Lodbergen. All of them were raised here and are predominately by the stallions stationed in Lodbergen.

Healthy nurtured, carefully schooled and excellently trained, they have everything it takes for upper level sport. We always have a good number of young talents in our sales stables ready for your inspection – from foals to soundly trained dressage cracks and even licensed stallions.
