SOUTHEND TAIL EXTENSIONS

Where Showing Just Got Easier

ABOUT US

Hansen Family

Amanda, Michele, Dallas, Jesse, and Cody

Southend Tail Extensions first got its start with the need to add a little more fullness to our AQHA mare, Satonachocolatechip. We clipped and cleaned the hair from a few of our broodmares and created our first black tail. It looked great in the ring and word soon was out of a new type of tail extension.

That was a few years ago. We have expanded, but not at the expense of our customers. With a knowledgable and dedicated staff that have been around the horse industry, we can offer you that personal touch that is sometimes missing in this busy world. Along the way we have made a few changes to our design and added the Hunter/Jumper Tail Extension, but we still agree the bottom line is to make great looking tails at an affordable price.

We value our customers input. Many customers come back because they have bought a new horse or just need a different color for an up and coming prospect. We have made many new aquaintances and keep in touch by email with many of them.

Our tails are mutli- purposed for those of us that show pleasure and halter one day but can still use the same tail extension for reining the next.

The business of making tail extensions involves the whole Hansen family. We farm and ranch in Southern Saskatchewan. It gets pretty hectic around here but we try not to let our lives get too busy for our horses and show time.

Over the last couple of years we have switched gears from showing pleasure horses to trying our skill with reiners. Amanda will be riding Genuine Charity this summer. We are very excited about seeing this filly in the ring as she has been a favorite of our since the day she was born. Amanda has convinced me to get back to showing and last fall I entered the Saskatchewan Stakes and Futurity with my trusty gelding, Lucky Sonita. It was great to be showing again. I would like to thank my family for encouraging me to follow my dreams, and to Kyle Weston of Weston Reiners for coaching me at the show.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. We will get back to you as soon as possible.
