Shelah Wetter- 20,000 Miles on American Saddlebreds

n this Year of the Horse spotlight episode, I sit down with Shelah Wetter of Blue Haven Stable — lifelong Saddlebred horsewoman, 20,000-mile endurance rider, and 2025 Sport Horse Owner/Breeder of the Year.

We talk about how she chose her endurance partner, what makes a Saddlebred shine on the trail, why slowing down builds longevity, and how welcoming new riders strengthens the future of endurance.

If you love strong partnerships, brave horses, and the long game — this one’s for you.
