As the owner of Crying Coyote Farm and several other equine related ventures, Meredith van Benthuysen spends most of her time working with or talking about horses. She produces horse shows and auctions internationally. She is involved in international equine productions, serves as a volunteer with a variety of equine associations and is committed to equine benevolence and repurposing programs. She competes and owns horses competing in multiple disciplines and she sells horses. And when she is not doing something horse related... well, her husband says it always ends up horse related!
Meredith grew up on an Arabian horse farm in central Iowa and learned to ride with her veterinarian father. Upon moving to Central America with her family, she was introduced to the international jumping show circuit and began to compete over fences. Through the years, Meredith has actively shown horses in a variety of disciplines including jumpers, hunters, saddle seat, dressage, western disciplines and halter. In most recent years though, her interests have focused on sport horse competition and developing young horses for international competition.
With a particular attraction to jumpers and conformation horses, Meredith owns and has competed internationally with several hunter breeding, dressage breeding and jumper champions. She takes pride in identifying top young prospects and fostering their development into competitive show horses. Regardless of breed, age or aptitude, Meredith has an eye for an equine athlete and can help it reach its potential. She enjoys working with young horses and is always excited by the opportunity to work with a new prospect. Her latest adventure has been in breeding Welsh and Half Welsh ponies for top competition.
Most importantly though, Meredith enjoys "horse people". The camaraderie of working with people who have an equal love for the horse is what makes the work worth while and accomplishments meaningful. Meredith believes that the friendship and loyalty of the Crying Coyote Team will be remembered long past any award won.
