My name is Jo and my husband is Danny we purchased Smarty off Noel & Lindy Watson in 2006! He was my first horse in western pleasure after having the kids.
We saw him in horse deals and I fell in love straight away. Both Danny and I spoke to Noel and Lindy a lot about Smarty. They were both very honest about his pros and cons. We brought him sight unseen (not usually a good idea) but we had full trust in what we were told about Smarty as we live in Vic and he was in Queensland. The day he arrived I was a bit shocked at how big he was but he was everything they said he was (I was rapt) even the truck driver said he was the best looking horse he’s had on the truck for ages.
Danny and I have kept in contact with Noel and Lindy over the years asking for their opinion and questions about other horses we were going to look at in Queensland as Danny was looking for a Reiner. They both were extremely helpful in anything we asked and as it turned out they had a Reiner for sale so Danny went to Queensland to see a few horse and we ended up with, you guessed it another one of Noel and Lindys. His names Sugar and he’s just what they said he was.
We have found that the horses have been started off well with no harsh treatment. We can’t say enough about Noel and Lindy as they have helped us out so much. If we ever need a new horse we will be ringing them first.

Hi there I am Sonja Tandy and I would just like to say a big Thank You to Noel and Lynde for all there help with my horses. My daughter, Elissa and I both get lessons from Noel and the amount that we have learnt from him, our horse's thank you.
But not only has Noel helped us better ourselves, I purchased a gelding that was a lot behind the eight ball and I was struggling with him so I packed he’s bags and sent him to boarding school for a bit. This gelding is a bit of a temperamental one but Noel just goes with the flow and the difference in a short time was unreal. I have been able to get him to a show and put a score on the board wow.
I would also like to thank them both for all there help when I decided to put my mare in foal to Im Justa Baever there wonderful sir. As a first time mum, they had answers to all the strange questions I came up with. I delivered a chestnuts colt, but unfortunately the mare coliced 13 hours after delivery. Lynde was right there for me in the middle of the night and 5 months down the track we said good bye to my old friend (Gift) and once again Lynde was with me through that.
Noel has just broken in Im A Gift Baever and I am rapped with the dirrection we are heading.
I know when my horse's are at Noel and Lynde's thay are been looked after as if thay are at home.
Once again Thank You
