Laredo Moon is our golden dappled buckskin stallion. Laredo is a double registered buckskin Tennessee Walking Horse. He is registered with the TWHBEA and the International Buckskin Horse Association (IBHA). He has several World Grand Champions in his pedigree, such as Ebony Masterpiece, Merry Go Boy, Go Boy's Shadow, Mack K's Handshaker and many more. Laredo also has old time breeding going back to Calvin Miller breeding and also goes back to Roy Roger's Trigger Jr. twice (Allen's Gold Zephyr). Laredo has old time breeding and natural gait. His color is just a plus.
Laredo is a very gentle stallion. He has puppy dog personality. He will come up to you in the middle of the pasture just to get attention. You can even catch him the pasture and hop on bareback and ride him away in a halter, even away from mares. He was broke to ride as a two year old. Quite and honest in his work ethic, he is gentle enough for kids to ride and inexperienced riders. On long days working cattle he lets Krista's Australian Shepherds ride behind the saddle. Laredo has even been rode around mares in heat and never blinked an eye. He is a real gentleman. Laredo is even gentle enough to wean foals with him.
Laredo has proven to be very versatile. He has done everything from ranch work to showing in open shows to ranch rodeos. Laredo willing performs all tasks of ranch work. He loves to work cattle. In the show circuit the past few years Laredo was show in Halter, Bareback Equitation, Trail Classes, Ranch Horse Class, Barrel Racing, Pole Bending and the Flag Race. He can be rode Western, English and bareback. Another one of his great qualities is he has a ground covering walk. He also can perform a rack and he has been clocked performing his rack barefoot between 18-20 MPH.
Laredo is one of Krista's favorite mounts.
Laredo currently stands 15.2 hands.
