Appaloosa horses are IT...I just LOVE THOSE SPOTS! I know a good horse has no color, and spots are not everyones "cup of tea", but I enjoy looking at spotted horses in the pasture.
Isn't she pretty? We have owned this mare for a few years now, and look at all those spots! Leopard Appaloosa...she is one of our broodmares here on the farm. BUT...we have decided to let our big Appaloosa horses go, much as I love them all. Realistically...I have not ridden in a few years - just no time to break a horse to ride - so....All the big horses are going to be sold. To appease my great love of horses...AND spots...we will replace them with several Appaloosa Miniature horses. That way we can all enjoy looking at them in the pasture, petting them, a couple of pretty foals every year...and less guilt about not getting them broke to ride.
The mare pictured is USA registered, and has a blanketed bay filly that will color out that is sired by a Canadian registered Appaloosa stallion we bred here, and this mare is rebred to the same stallion for next year. Her filly is pictured below.
We also have the following mares for sale
Yes, this bay half Arabian mare above has a solid sorrel filly, sired by same Appaloosa as the filly above, and is also rebred for next year.
The above powerful mare is a direct daughter of World Champion Appaloosa "TAX MAN". Big, powerful, and the sweetest temperment. She is a great broodmare.
And this powerful mare is also a "TAX MAN" daughter, with such a sweet nature, a real doll! Pictured with her colt 3 years ago, the day he was foaled. This colt is our current stallion, "PAYBACK".
3 years can make a lot of difference in color on an Appaloosa, this is how he shed out this spring! He is Canadian registered, and will finish out about 14.2hh. He sired 3 foals this year, 2 born colored, and #3 the sorrel filly above.
This 2 year old colt we call "KEY WEST KID"...his mother is the first big mare pictured above, "TAX MAN" daughter, and this colt is growing...still. A very good nature on this boy, wish we could keep him, but.....He is not gelded as he could be a fabulous stud. So he goes as he is...
AND "JUST BECAUSE" my husband took this fabulous action photo, AND CBC Saskatchewan chose it and requested it for their greeting cards....here you can see and enjoy it too!
For some reason they DIDN'T want the photo below....
Feel free to contact us if any of the horses above are of interest...we want to sell them all before we move, just to make life easier on everyone.
