Our Story
We are a small farm nestled on 54 acres in Mid Michigan. We raise Tennessee Walking Horses, Icelandic Horses, Australian Shepherds of the Miniature and Toy size varieties, and Crested Budgies(Japanese Hagoromo too).
We are home to Dunn Cashed In, a devilishly handsome red dun TWHBEA registered stallion, and Silfri from Solheimar, a stunning blue dun UCHC registered Icelandic Stallion.
Cash is one of the few registered duns in the walking horse breed. He has many attributes along with his unique coloration. Cash has excellent conformation, natural gait and head shake. Cash has an impeccable temperament. He is quiet, level headed, sweet, easy going, he is a true gentleman. He takes care of his riders and is calm enough for beginners to ride, yet under the hand of an experienced rider is forward, light, and poetry in motion. He his wonderful to handle on the ground and during collections as well. He has outstanding bloodlines that include WGC Coins Hard Cash, Midnight Sun, Suns Delight D, Triple Threat, and Mack Ks Handshaker. Cashs sire, Coins Hard Cash, is a leading sire in the walking horse breed. Weather you are breeding for the show ring or the trail, one of Cash's foals is the right choice!
Silfri is a handsome icelandic stallion with big, high, and wide movement. He is sired by Parker frá Sólheimum, a spectacular chestnut stallion who was evaluated at 8.39 overall. His dam Sif frá Efri-Rauòalæk is a stunning grullo mare who was evaluated at 7.85 overall. Silfri has excellent conformation, and is 5 gaited. He has an excellent temperament and is quiet, brave, independent, sweet, and very friendly. He has not been started under saddle yet, we hope to get him going this summer and have him evaluated in 2018. He has outstanding bloodlines that include Hervar frá Sauðárkróki and Sleipnir frá Efri-Rauðalæk a first prize stallion.
Our Australian Shepherds are wonderful family pets, they are exceptionally smart, compete in agility, and are great herding dogs. Our dogs are all genetically disease tested and have OFA certifications for their eyes hips, and elbows when age appropriate. We have a few litters of puppies a year and typically have a combination of black tricolor, red tricolor, blue merle, and red merle in each litter.
We were the first person in North and South America to import Japanese Crested Budgies. These are also called Hagoromo (Japanese word for helicopter) budgies. We will be offering a select few for sale once we have had a few clutches. We also raise some nice exhibition(also known as English) budgies with and without crests. Our birds are available in almost all colors and we have some of the less common color varieties such as fallow, Texas Clearbody, Easely Clearbody, and lutino/albino mutations.
