to BA Quarter Horses where our prospects have it naturally, so you have less work to do! 

We are a very small private breeding farm of champion futurity halter and all-around versatility, cutting, reined-cow and reining horses.  We have a very small but elite band of mares that embody the extreme talent we strive for and the dispositions we require. Our main focus is to continue to produce horses we enjoy and now to get them in the show pen!  We want to breed to stallions that show outstanding dispositions and pass on willingness and trainability.  We breed for easy moving Non Pro horses with Open level talent and the desire to perform all packaged with correct conformation and that extra touch of pretty.   

 

We have very proudly owned/bred/trained many World & National Show Top Ten producers and performers in Halter, Western Riding-Jr & Sr, Leading The Nation horses in multiple categories in the Top 5 and Top 10.  We have bred a World Champion 2-year-old stallion, 3-year-old stallion and a Top 5 World Show Open western lunge-line yearling stallion.  We have also had the distinct pleasure of owning and training a Jr Western Riding National Champion and a Sr Reining National Champion. We have trained many Youth All-Around Versatility champions, ApHC Champions, Futurity Champions, State Champions and AQHA Champions.  We have bred World Champions, Open & Breeders futurity champions, a Best Foal Of Show, year-end high points, a year-end reserve high point and a UNANIMOUS Breeders Futurity Champion.  We are the breeders of the hot up and coming red roan pleasure horse MY FIRST NOTICE - the first son of My Final Notice.  He was already Top 5 2x at the World Show & is an NSBA Money Earner.  We are the proud breeders of 2x WORLD CHAMPION - BA LIGHT EM UP a 2007 stallion by Hit The Lights and 2008 stallion Mamas Gotta Juicebox by Million Dollar Sire Smart Like Juice.

  

We find that often combining old foundation blood with the popular arena show blood creates athletes with a good mind, honest heart, tremendous ability and that have the structure and durability to stand up to years of use in the show pen... just ask Carol Rose.  This breeding creates a much better minded prospect that can just get to work instead of needing to be worked down before you can even get to work… 

Our reining and working cow prospects are own daughters of Hit The Lights and Dunnit In Hollywood.  Our mares carry the legendary blood consisting of  Meradas Money Talks, Freckles Playboy, Grays Starlight, Hit The Lights,  Colonel Freckles, Freckles Merada, Custom Crome, Dunnit In Hollywood, Hollywood Dun It, Holidoc, Wheeling Peppy, Dry Doc, Crome Plated Jac, Mr. San Peppy, Peppy San, Doc O Lena, Paid By Chic, Playboy Seventy, Dry Doc, Jewel's Leo Bars, Mescalito Benito, Great Pine, Pine Bartender, Doc Quixote, Doc's Hickory, Doc's Prescription, Hollywood Jac 86, Peppy San Badger, Shorty Lena, Doc's Sug, Topsail Cody, Doc Bar, Smart Little Lena, Smart Like Lena and Little Tequilla Lena blood... with mares like Rest Stop, Leave The Rest, Playboys Promise, Docs San Pebbles, Smokins Tokin, Positivio Lena, Sugar Gay Bar, Poco Lena, Lena On Me, Miss Spooknik, Delicate Dry, King Ginger 70, Scripts Beauty, Lena San Trouble, Hickory's Petite Star, Peppy's Top Cut and Smart Peppy on the papers.  But more importantly than what's on the paper is our mares & prospects all have incredible talent, exceptionally good dispositions & excellent conformation.  Producing naturally talented individuals with trainable attitudes, wonderful dispositions, textbook conformation and tremendous heart. 

 

Our prospects have it naturally,

so we have less work to do and more to enjoy!

 

 

 

 

We are excited about our 2011 breedings!

(this is just some of what we have planned!)

After watching 7.3 Million Dollar Sire Shining Sparks many sons in the show pen for years.... we have finally found one that fits our program.  We have searched long and hard for a stallion with this strength of pedigree on both sides, heart, power, talent, ease & style of movement and we even got the bonus of a beautiful golden color.

We have some VERY exciting plans for our mares Smart Peppy Wheelin and A Merada Star!  Check back for details later this fall.

So many people ask us what we feed.
And we are always happy to share... we feed ADM.

You need it..... ADM has it!
 

Patriot 14% Performance -
 
Fortifed Feeds are mixes of ingredients meant to provide the correct balance of proteins, energy sources, vitamins and minerals for particular groups of horses. In contrast, grain mixes contain grains and molasses, but not added protein, vitamins or minerals. Grain mixes always contain more phosphorus than calcium and usually lead to nutrient deficiencies and imbalances in the total ration.

Fortified feeds are much better for horses than grain mixes because they contain vitamins and minerals in the correct amounts and ratios for horses.

Fortified feeds come in two main forms, pelleted feeds and sweet feeds.  We recommend and only feed the pelleted feeds. Pelleted feeds contain less starch and sugar and are more digestible in horses than typical sweet feeds.

Healthy Glo -
 

·    Highly digestible form of energy and provides more energy per pound compared to grain

·    Can reduce the “grain-high” associated with feeding large amounts of grain

·    Can reduce the risks of digestive disorders, such as typing-up, ulcers, founder, and colic associated with feeding large amounts of grain

·    Use of dietary fat reduces the thermal load in working horses, resulting in better stamina and endurance

·    Improves body condition of thin horses

·    Contributes to hair coat shine and “bloom”

 

 

 

  And of course we feed the best Alfalfa & Alfalfa/grass

mixes we can find!
