Avondale Icelandics LLC

Avondale Icelandics LLC keeps a small herd of Icelandic horses in Redmond, Washington, serving as what the operation describes as Seattle's Icelandic horse connection. Doreen (Dor) Shoda leads the program, bringing a background in tech management consulting that she has applied to a structured, methodical approach to horse training and horsemanship education.

The program centers on working closely with each horse as an individual, recognizing that the Icelandics in the herd differ in personality, body type, and skill level, which allows for a varied range of learning experiences. Dor's training philosophy emphasizes building clear communication between horse and rider from the ground up, using specialized tack and techniques developed through years of hands-on experimentation.

Those interested in Icelandic horses for sale in Washington will find that Avondale Icelandics approaches ownership thoughtfully, encouraging prospective owners to ride and develop their skills before committing to a horse of their own. The facility sits in the greater Seattle area, roughly east of the city near Redmond, and operates on a scheduled basis with access by appointment.
