WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE? When Hurricane Ivan came callin' and took us apart BADLY, we had some hard decisions to make regarding our whereabouts. The serious damage from the aftermath of the storm had to be re-built down South. So with heavy hearts we decided we had to suspend our operation as we had known it in Wyoming and concentrate on putting our barns, houses and lives back in order in Florida. It's all good…even though we are cowboys at heart and still cherish the time we spend in Wyoming 'at home on the range,' we love the south as well. And when we are down in Florida we bring the western culture with us, along with our ranch horses and ranch philosophy. When you purchase a horse from Early Ranch, you can rest assured it has fantastic foundations and has been trained by a "REAL COWBOY." Our horses are our family, having the discipline and knowledge imparted from a lifetime of 'horse whispering' from Wayne, and the love, petting and 'treat giving' from Ruth. There truly is a difference, as you will experience when you ride one of our quality equines and bring them into your life. When we wish you HAPPY TRAILS we really mean it!!
Well LOOKEE HERE!! The beloved GENTLE GIANT of EARLY RANCH is FINALLY being offered for sale! Barjo Roper's Rebl is arguably the most incredible animal we've ever had the pleasure to know. For many, many years and many, many miles he has packed many, many folks...gives confidence to even the most timid of riders and can carry a cowboy to the winner's circle in lots of events. He could easily switch his athletic talent to impressing all in the hunter/jumper set. Rebl is H-U-G-E...over 16 hands tall and weighing over 1300 pounds. He really CAN do it all and his price reflects it...$9,000.
PRAIRIE SANOS STAR is a drop dead gorgeous AQHA red roan gelding with all the right stuff. He is a 1999 model born and raised in the mountains and plains of Wyoming. This feller is Hancock bred with Easy Jet, Poco and Leo sprinkled through. His sire is Casino Star Cash and his dam, Misty Sands is a good old girl from 1985, with "Prairie Star" being her only registered foal. So you would have a one-of-a-kind horse who is working well under the saddle, is extremely quiet and would make a good friend. SOLD! To a feller who looked at over 20 horses...and then he saw Prairie Star and Art Baker had found his horse!! CONGRATS, ART!!
How many times do you see a gorgeous grey and white paint come on the market? Here's a dandy five year old gelding for you to consider, at a great price as wel. "Smokin Gun" is a smaller horse, standing right at 14.3, and we know that lots of folks are looking for a horse smaller in stature but with a huge heart! This friendly fellow lost his mother when he was two weeks old and was raised on the porch. It SHOWS in his gentle demeanor, total trust of people and his puppy dog way of following you everywhere. His training has just begun, but with his willing attitude he'll be carrying you in style in no time. He can turn left and right, stops good, and can already back up. He displays athletic ability to go for any discipline you choose…Smokin' Gun is the lifetime friend that you've been looking for…HE'S A KEEPER!!! Did I mention how beautiful he is? A true value at the low price of only $2,500.SOLD to Samantha Richardson Happy Trails to you both.
