The ones that stay level-headed, take a minute, and figure things out…
those are the ones that hold up over time.
You can feel the difference the first time you swing a leg over.
It’s not louder.
It’s not flashier.
It’s just better where it counts.

Got some new DNA results in from UC Davis this afternoon. We can officially make claim, factually, that Gunshy is in fact, 8 panel NEGATIVE!

No babysitting. No second-guessing.
Just a horse that shows up the same way every day ... whether it’s a slow ride or something actually needs done.
That kind of consistency isn’t something you fix later. It starts in the breeding.
Because the ones that make your life easier are the ones worth building more of.

They don’t make you justify them.
They don’t leave you second-guessing.
They just show up, do their job, and make your day easier.
The kind you appreciate more the longer you’ve been around horses.

Color. Trends. What’s popular that year.
But none of that matters when you’re the one saddling up every day.
The horses that actually last, the ones people keep, are the ones that:
↣ stay level-headed
↣ stay trainable
↣ stay consistent when it counts
That doesn’t come from chasing trends.
It comes from breeding with a purpose.
Because at the end of the day, you’re not breeding for a photo…
you’re breeding for a job.

Sometimes, I walk Gunshy into the new barn, look around at it all, look at him, and I wonder if he knows… if he knows I did it all for him, specifically. The farm, the barn, the oversized stalls..

Needless to say, the little gray stallion who could, is definitely enjoying the new barn with the abnormally large stalls 🥰

Everyone has a different end goal ... and that’s what should drive your breeding decisions.
Ranch work, rope horse, versatility, cow horse…it all comes down to what you need your horse to do day in and day out. There’s no “one size fits all” cross, just the right one for the job.

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭-𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠? 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬…
Most people overcomplicate it ... or worse, go in blind.
𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬…
– Your mare matters just as much as the stallion
– Temperament is just as important as ability
– Pedigree should support your goal, not just look good on paper
– The right cross should make your job easier, not harder
You don’t need to know everything.
You just need to start with the right foundation and ask the right questions.
That’s how you end up with a horse you can actually use, not one you have to figure out later.

𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 wasn’t just a name on paper...he was known for producing horses with feel, timing, and a natural ability to read cattle.
The kind that don’t hesitate.
The kind that stay with a cow instead of guessing.
That influence shows up in:
– quick reads
– responsiveness
– trainable minds
– horses that can go to work across multiple programs
You can’t train that instinct into one.
But you can breed for it.
And when that kind of foundation is stacked into a pedigree, it’s not by accident...it’s intentional.

Ladies & gentlemen, boys & girls, welcoming back to the tiny remuda, Jackies Playgunn… for those of you that have been around awhile, you might remember this mare as “Dale” of the fillies I had, Chip & Dale (they’re photos together are at the end).

Shoutout to for entrusting me to foal her out. And a bigger shoutout for letting me use her in the future to cross with Gunshy 00.
