Since 1980 we’ve
been breeding "horses to match our mountains." We've always
emphasized naturalness of gait, sweet disposition, substantial bone, athletic
ability and beauty. Central to our breeding program for the last decade
was the late Pride Piper, the last standing
son of Pride of Midnight H.F., known for his barefoot running walk, light-shod
show record (including a reserve championship at the Celebration), and striking
appearance. His son Piper's Pride of Absaroka, a powerful,
athletic chestnut like his sire, is now producing tall, athletic colts.
(With Pride, at age three, Dan rounded up our cattle in the hills alone, then
went the next day to a show where he took five ribbons!) Absaroka Silver Dollar is ultra-gentle, grey,
and powerful. We’ve been particularly pleased with Dollar foals from
Piper mares and more recently Pride foals from Dollar mares. Lastly,
we’ve added Bubba the Gaited Jack
to answer the growing demand for gaited mules. We’ve been extremely
pleased with his progeny and are enjoying this new endeavor of producing
“long-ears” with their mothers’ head-nodding running walks.
Please note:
·
All horses are registered and blood-typed.
·
All prices subject to change (particularly as horses
progress in training).
·
For horses currently in training, “started” refers to approximately
thirty days training including ground work and 10-15 rides.
“Well-started” indicates considerable riding on the ranch outside of the
arena. A performance checklist is kept showing the accomplishment of each
horse and is updated after each session.
