Who says a horse can’t play soccer, paint and perform other entertaining tricks – when she’s not pulling a carriage?
Wisconsin cowboy, pleasure driver, nature photographer and horse trainer Derrick Dupler and Princess Rhia, his big black Morgan mare, dare to prove such naysayers wrong.
“Rhia and I have been entertaining audiences of all ages with our demonstration of equine excellence for over five years,” said Derrick Dupler, who is known to friends as a gentleman cowboy.

“We have been featured in newspapers, magazines, and television all over the country with our humorous and artistic painting horse shows. It has been our honor to raise funds for many charities and to perform for so many different events,” Derrick Dupler added.
Based in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, Derrick Dupler and Rhia travel nationwide to participate in equestrian expos and to train equestrians and their equines.
Derrick Dupler has said his goal is helping humans and humans build trusting relationships and good manners, while having some fun together.

And, if folks are fortunate, they might see a whole different sort of paint Horse, in Rhia, Derrick Dupler’s unusually talented Morgan.
The 2010 Midwest Horse Fair will be held from Friday, April 16th, through Sunday, April 18th, at the Alliant Energy Center, in Madison, Wisconsin.

They had him come to the nursery today when they were having a Christmas party. He was very polite and funny and the horse was amazing! Definitely a good show to see. :)
