Registered Paint Horses


I loved the colored horses way back when as here is me some 40 plus years ago with my first horse who was a Arabian/Pinto cross.I was 7-8 years old and he was about 3 and still a stallion,he was very quiet and I often rode him with a lead rope attached to his halter.

HF Tru Mocha Princess

HF Tru Mocha Princess a 2005 Buckskin Tobiano Mare by Tru High Style x Apache Princess was our first foal by Spike.This mare has got to be my favorite Spike foal she was almost lost due to colic when she was about 5 months old and was at a bit of a ugly duckling at that stage to boot.She definately turned into a swan and is much loved by her owner Victoria,her full sister Ginger is pictured right below her.

HF Tru Ginger Snap

HF Tru Ginger Snap a 2006 Solid Sorrel Mare by Tru High Style x Apache Princess.This girl is currently at the trainers learning how to be saddled,lunged and various other things that a young horse should know.Thanks to her owner Gabrielle for the updated picuture of her,she sure is a beauty.

HF Truly Amber

Here is a current picture of HF Truly Amber a 2006 Solid Palomino Mare by Tru High Style x I'ma Little Teaka.This girl is around 15.0hh and is a good stout mare.She obviously has a good mind as she doesn't seem to concerned that her owner left her to take a picture-she apparently a fabulous riding horse as well and is willing to try pretty much anything she is asked to do.

Truly A Duchess

Here is a picture of Truly A Duchess a 2006 Solid Black Mare by Tru High Style x Virtual Legacy( Paint x Andalusian).This girl is nice and her nice black coat doesn't hurt either,she is is known as a azteca,which is a andalusian crossed with a QH or Paint.Duchess is very refined which is a surprise as andalusian's are known for their thick bodies,she is around the 15.2hh mark.She has been in training and is jumping 3'9 with a rider and free jumps 4'3 feet-which is without a rider.She competes in eventing and is doing very well !! Nice mare.

HF Wango Tango

HF Tru Wango Tango a 2007 Bay Tobiano Colt by Tru High Style x Apache Princess.I probably should have given my head a shake when i sold Apache as she gave me three nice foals including this guy who is pictured at about eight hours old.However i wanted to get into strictly registered stock and Apache was also broke to ride and at this point had produced eight foals and i figured she deserved to just be riding horse from this point on-which she now is.Sometimes you have to put their needs before your own which is what we did as she had given us some nice foals and got us going.I have owned a lot of horses in my life & sold lot's as wellI & do wonder about her & do have the odd pang of regret from time to time.

HF Tru High Time

HF Tru High Time a 2008 Black Tobiano Gelding by Tru High Style x Big Time Pine.Cisco was a nice surprise when i walked out & saw him for the first time-i didn't think i'd luck out & get a black & white-I infact lucked out two more times that year & got two more black & white's!! This guy was really easy to deal with as a foal in terms of halter breaking & picking his feet up,he never gave us a moments grief and is still the same as an adult.He has been saddle trained and is doing well and is still very easy going and laid back & we are very proud that he is one of ours.*Note he is sun bleached in this picture.

HF Tru Stylish Mac

Here is HF Tru Stylish Mac a 2009 Solid Black Gelding by Tru High Style x Iss Midway Mac.This guy was a cute foal with a big white face that gave him the nick name "Pale Face" he was very easy to halter train,handle his feet and just about everything else you have to teach a youngster.He has turned into a nice riding horse,he is very willing and easy to handle and is getting used for barrel racing.To which he is taking without issue,this is what we strive for with our foals-sane with good minds.

HF Tru Midway Style

HF Tru Midway Style a 2008 Black Tobiano Gelding by Tru High Style x Iss Midway Mac.This guy had a rough start in life,he had to have surgery on his knees to correct his growth plates as his front legs were very crooked.Due to all of the handling he got before & after his surgery he is very quiet & easy to deal with.His previous leg/knee issue's obviously have not affected his ability to be ridden,he looks like a good reliable mount and is very flashy.

HF Tru Mighty Fine

Here is HF Tru Mighty Fine a 2010 Solid Buckskin Filly by Tru High Style x TT Mighty Miss Riskey on her way to her new home in fraserwood,she jumped in the trailer like an old pro and promply started eating hay about 3 seconds after i took this picture.

HF Dashin Blue Moon

HF Dashin Blue Moon a 2008 Black Tobiano Mare by Dashin Duster x Willie Blue The Moon.Luna is a really good natured young mare and does everything asked of her.I was going to keep her back to add to our broodmare band,but had the oppertunity to sell her with two of our other youngster's at the time & decided to sell her as part of the package.I am told she has a great mind & is doing great under saddle & it looks like it is the truth from the picture.

HF Dashin To The Moon

Here is HF Dashin To The Moon a 2009 Black Tobiano Gelding by Dashin Duster x Willie Blue The Moon.This guy was another really friendly,quiet foal that you could do anything with.With his obvious good looks and build he has it all!!

HF Tru Half Moon

HF Tru Half Moon a 2010 Solid Buckskin Gelding by Tru High Style x Willie Blue The Moon.This guy was a nice foal to have around and never gave us any trouble,i know he is going to be a nice horse when he's fully mature.He will be a great riding /performance prospect,althought the other horses where he now lives are all harness broke and have competed in in combined driving competions-maybe driving is in his future as well.

HF Tru Twilight Time

HF Tru Twilight Time a 2011 Solid Buckskin Filly by Tru High Style x Big Time Pine.This filly was a very quiet,level headed filly to work with as a youngster.I literally walked up to her & put a halter on her & was pretty much leading her within 5 minutes of putting the halter on her,she has been saddled,blanketed,ponied with another horse & has had a tarp pulled right over top of her and has taken it all in stride.She will be an awesome riding horse,her owner Marie as hopes of showing her as well,i am sure she will do well with that as well.
