A few impressions of the welcome culture 
at SANTO STEFANO
Mum PYRAH by POLYDOR watching her new  born son REMUS SANTO STEFANO (sire: RUBINSTEIN I) getting cleaned and dried by breeder and owner Barbara Fuchs
CORVO SANTO STEFANO (sire: CORDE SANTO STEFANO, dam CHAYA SANTO STEFANO) enjoying  his first washing with a clean white towel
Very touching: First kiss from FIGHTING FLAVIUS (by FIGHTING ALPHA and FANIE SANTO STEFANO). His birth was particularly difficult.

The first moments of life are extremely important for the relationship between the newborn foal and human beings. This very first contact has been called "imprinting" by the famous animal psychologist Conrad Lorenz. The presence and  assistance of the owner creates an atmosphere of trust and well-being in the relationship between newborn foal and men, but also an atmosphereof trust between the mother and their owners. We are always present when our mares are giving birth helping, soothing and assisting when it is necessary. Touch and voice contact are extremely important also during the mares' pregnancy. We are convinced that the foal already knows us before it gets delivered into this world.
The first gulp of milk (colostrum) full with valuable protecting substances milked from the mother is supplied by us immediately after cleaning and disinfecting the umbilical cord. Then we help the little creature to get up and to find the mother's udder. These very intimate moments where only we are present without intruding or disturbing the relation between mother and newborn are the "imprinting"  that makes SANTO STEFANO horses so special.
