At our farm children meet not only horses but other friendly animals.
🐎 Scarlet is a 19-year-old mare of the Slovenian Warmblood breed who competed in show jumping. She is an exceptionally calm and friendly horse, and children absolutely adore her.
🐎 Elvis is an 18-year-old KWPN gelding who competed in dressage. He is very affectionate, likes to hold his tongue between his teeth while being petted, and prefers wandering around outside the paddock.
🐎 Živa is a 5-year-old KWPN dressage mare. She was named after our company Živa and has a very lively character. She is very affectionate and loves opening zippers.
🐎 Roxy is a 5-year-old KWPN jumping mare. A particularly beautiful chestnut with white socks, she is very well-behaved and a highly promising horse.
Bella is our friendly Labrador who will most likely be the first to welcome you to the farm. She is a sweet, slightly chonky girl with a big heart and an even bigger love for people. Bella loves attention and will happily accompany us as we walk around the farm, wagging her tail and making sure no guest ever feels alone. If you’re lucky, she might even bring you a stick to play with.
We also have a small flock of sheep living on the farm. In the spring and summer you can often see their adorable little lambs running around the pasture. Visitors are welcome to come closer, watch them, and sometimes even help feed them. The lambs are curious and gentle, and they quickly become a favorite among children.
Our farm is also home to four cats, each with their own personality:
Buco – the big softie. He may look serious at first, but he loves attention and will happily come over for scratches once he gets to know you.
Garfield – the true king of the barn. Relaxed, a little lazy, and always looking for a warm sunny spot to nap in.
Biba – the curious explorer. She is always sneaking around the farm, checking every corner and making sure everything is in order.
Muri – the quiet observer. He prefers watching the world from a safe distance, but if you sit down long enough, he might come over to say hello.
My daughter Katja has been coming to ŽIVA riding school for a while now and she absolutely loves it. Every lesson is something she looks forward to and she always comes home happy and excited to tell us about her time with the horses. She can hardly wait for the next lesson!
