Horses have always been a critical part of Van Dyke Saddlery and Stock Horses. For many years we had great success training and starting outside horses for the public. As of 2023, we made the switch to soleing making and selling horses we train. We offer everything from horses that are started to a more seasoned, money earning older horse. These horses are used on our ranch and some of the largest ranches in the west.
Beyond ranch use, we will show them in Versatility Ranch Horse, Reined Cow Horse, and team roping events. Our horses have gotten a very good blend of real life use that is so uncommon today as well as training that prepares them for a show pen. Below are some horses that are available for sale. Thank you for looking and hope you enjoy these animals as much as we do!

TESTIMONIALS
One of the greatest horsemen I have met in a long time....can break one quicker than anyone I know and good.

I have been raising Thoroughbred polo ponies for almost 40 years. I can’t remember when Paul Van Dyke began to start my colts, but I remember how much better the colts became. Paul has a gentle but no nonsense ritual with the youngsters. Sometimes he is on a colt in one hour. Sometimes it is 2 weeks before he is up top, but each step is covered. If he thinks a colt needs more time, you can be sure it does. Not only does Paul teach one with a rope, dragging logs, but he can and does start polo mallet work with the babies. This is a very integral part of polo training and can be disastrous if done wrong. Paul has a sense and feeling far beyond his years. He is trustworthy and most importantly…a horseman.
