From Our Clients – In Their Own Words
Malena, New York, USA
Searching for a horse can be an intimidating process which is why we are so thankful and so happy to have found the German Horse Center! Not only did they help us to find the perfect horse, yet they made the journey there easy, simple, and enjoyable.
Susan, Florida, Apollo Beach, USA
Domenico is our third horse we have purchased in Germany. The German Horse Center had the best selection of horses that were honestly represented, possessing both excellent breeding, and temperament. My 18 year old daughter & I both loved a well trained, handsome and talented young Hanoverian. He has a sweet disposition & is amateur friendly.
Shannon, Southern California, USA
"I went on a horse shopping trip in Germany, looking for a young hunter prospect.
I found the German Horse Center website and saw many quality horses of interest to me.
When I reached out to the Center, I was contacted by the director of GHC. He was amazing, from start to finish. He lined up all of the horses for me to see and made a detailed itinerary for the short trip I had planned - I only had a couple of days. I even had to change my itinerary and he happily rescheduled the appointments.
Allison, Richmond, Virginia, USA
We came across the German Horse Center while looking for a young horse to import for the Hunter discipline, and had a great experience start to finish. Due to time constraints and the cost of traveling to Europe, we chose to purchase Nora via videos and phone conversations. The GHC and their partner were fabulous to work with. Our American agent happened to already know the GHC partner so we felt very comfortable with their representation of Nora. They sent us multiple videos, photos, called me on the phone several times and worked very closely with us during the vetting and importing process.
Deborah, Santa Barbara, California, USA
Yesterday San Diego (Juno) competed at his first dressage event here in Santa Barbara.
He won both his test level 1&2 classes and was the overall winner amongst the horses ridden by professional riders.
We are very proud of him!
Jane, Los Angeles, California, USA
I purchased gentleman from you approximately a month ago and just wanted to thank you for this amazing horse. In the past two years I had purchased two horses in the States and they were both unmitigated disasters. What I was looking for in the US was out of my price range so for my third attempt I decided to purchase overseas and found "Manny" on your website.
Gustavo, Trainer, Florida, USA
Alfred and Lucky are doing great (the horses that were bought). (…) I think the personal guide service you provided was excellent. Very detailed and very organized.
I think it's the best way to buy horses in Germany. Everything was very easy. The stables that you represent all have great quality horses. I had a very good time and I hope to be back soon.
Laurie, Florida, USA
Thank you GHC for helping me find my amazing new horse. Although my top 3 picks had been sold by the time I arrived, GHC, with their numerous contacts, were able to arrange new prospects for me to try that weren't even listed on the website.
I truly believe things happen for a reason and the first horse I sat on ended up being my favorite.
Aleksandra, Belgrad, Serbia
A small update from Serbia:
I don't know how to thank you for helping me to find such a good horse that has everything i need. Cassina is really a confidence giver and she opened the door to many major competitions for me.
From season to season, she was better and do her best to respond to our demands. The results came in - last season we won all the major competitions and now we start another season together. She is really the best.
Once again I want to thank you for the time and effort you have invested in us.
Ixchel, Del Mar, California, USA
I cannot recommend the German Horse Center enough!
When my family and I set out to find the perfect Junior Jumper for my 13 year-old daughter, we were told to go to Holland as our barn usually does. However, we wanted to try something new and we found the German Horse Center online.
From the start, their staff was incredibly helpful, very focused on appropriate fit for the rider, and answered all inquiries truthfully and accurately. We booked the guided service and they provided us with a very detailed tour itinerary and even had our rental car and hotel reservations taken care of.
Annelie, Lidingö, Sweden
I am so thankful for giving me the opportunity to buy my dream horse.
Your professionalism is outstanding and it was a true pleasure doing business with you.
Best regards from Sweden,
Anneli and Portobello
Miriam, Prague, Czech Republic
I just wanted to get in touch and let you know how things are going in Prague.
We are doing well, and Chicago RA, the horse we found via GHC, is making excellent progress. My niece Valentyna loves her and they are very successful !
In June they qualified for the Championship of the Czech republic for children and juniors, qualification limit is 115cm and 120cm.
Cherie, Pennsylvania, USA
Our trip to Germany to go horse shopping could not have gone more smoothly. The German Horse Center handled everything, our itinerary was set and we were off. Everyone spoke English which was very comforting.
The partner stables were very professional. The quality of all the horses was top class and the facilities were excellent.
Having completed our first show season, the horses we purchased through the German Horse Center were wonderfully successful. Since both horses are young we are excited for their competition future.
Maike, Schwedeneck, Germany
When looking for a talented, properly trained and above all supple young dressage horse, we quickly reached our limits while searching ourselves.
After a number of viewings we were almost ready to give up, but then by chance we discovered the German Horse Center website. It was quite a pleasant surprise; I took a look through the horses on offer and then immediately contacted them and found the right horse.
Joceline, Surabaya, Indonesia
At first, i heard about GHC from a friend of mine in Indonesia. I was currently on my study in London. My friend gave me the email of the direcot and he is such a friendly person always replying to my emails.
He recommended me some horses based on my preference and I took 2 days horse tour.
It was a wonderful experience. They set everything up and organized the schedule really well. I met my lovely boy Chianto on the 2nd day. He was the last horse on the list and I remembered the director said "I think you will like this horse. He is a really nice horse and i think is perfect for you. This horse is one of my favorite" and when I tried him, he was absolutely right. He is everything that I need for. A very nice, scopey and careful jumper.
I'm really happy I found him and my GHC service is really satisfying as well. If I'm looking for another horse I'll find Stefan again for sure."
Shadi, Dubai
I stumbled across the German Horse center while surfing the net dreaming about finding a horse for me and my wife. We sent a message, honestly, not expecting a reply. Oh, a reply, we did get, a very honest and sincere reply.
It was this sincerity and transparency that made me decide to make the trip to Germany to find a horse. My trip to Germany was wonderful. I met such great people and made true friendships. The horses were also outstanding. Up to the last moment, I was still confused between three excellent horses as they met my requirements even possibly exceeding them.
All through the buying and shipping procedure the German Horse Center was right by our side. When the horse reached Dubai, Director of German Horse Center came to Dubai for a visit and we had a great time. We also used the German Horse Center to select a trainer to visit us here in Dubai to facilitate the transition for the horse from Germany.
