Green for his many years of faithful
service and told him how proud he
was of the way Green had
represented the company through
the years. Davis Cosey remarked
that DCl’s philosophy of
“exceeding customer expectations
through total commitment” was an
everyday way of “dedication and
service” to the Davis Company
team.
“it is a young, elegant breed —an
Arabian crossed with a saddle horse
—the ultimate show horse —the
National Show Horse”.
There are about 35 horses at the
Jerry Davis Farm. Terry leases
about half of the farm for training.
Kathy Ernst of Premiere Farms
leases the remainder for boarding
