We are lifetime members of the Missouri Fox Trotting Horse Breeders Association and breed foxtrotters with exceptional conformations, gentle and
willing dispositions, a comfortable foxtrotting gait, and whenever possible, we top that off with the beautiful color pattern of the dun gene. Although
we appreciate the dun gene, we first attend to the breed standards of Missouri Foxtrotters and only after those qualities are in place do we add the
dun coloring. We were one of the first breeders to actively breed for and promote the dun gene. We located two distinct lines of dun and work with
others interested in the dun gene to cross these two important lines. We hope to eventually see homozygous duns in our breed. 2008 was the first year
for possible homozygous duns, but neither of the two colts born were homozygous. We will try again this year for a homozygous dun foal in 2009.

As early as 2005, dun Missouri Fox Trotting horses were showing up in Model classes and soon a few will make debutes in Versatility events. Careful
and selective breeding by those interested in the gene is yielding quality dun foxtrotters with outstanding abilities. We are proud of our contributions
to this movement. You can learn more about our horses, foals, horses for sale, the dun gene, or the Missouri Fox Trotting Horse by browsing our site
