 In recent years, the world's horsemen have begun to
rediscover the great pleasure of naturally gaited horses. Thanks to the
unique, inborn, four-beat lateral gait, the Rocky Mountain Horse is a
pleasure to ride. He is an animal of refined beauty with the strength to
cover many miles a day - year after year. Disposition is probably his most appealing virtue. The
Rocky Mountain Horse is intelligent, tractable and eager to please, real
"PEOPLE HORSES". This makes them a joy to be around and ride. |
Our Mission Our goal at Mountain View Farm is to breed high quality Rocky Mountain
Horses. We breed for the wonderful temperament and smooth gait that
the Rocky Mountain Horse is known for. |
Company Profile We produce a small number of foals each year. Only normal eyed
(black, bay or normal eyed chestnut) mares are bred to top stallions. All
my mares have the smooth gait and wonderful temperament that you should
expect in a Rocky Mountain Horse, and pass it on to their offspring.
The stallions have been individually picked to complement each mare.
The mares enjoy the best of nutrition and care to ensure that the foals
are healthy and strong. After the foals are born they are imprinted
and then handled at least twice a day. By the time they are weaned
they lead, stand tied, have had their feet trimmed, and load in a trailer. |

Web Site Design While designing this site, I became aware of a need in the
Rocky Mountain Horse
community for affordable web site design and hosting as well as a need for more
sophisticated services such as the conversion of video tapes to still images and
video steams for the web. I have formed the company Mountain Horse
Productions, Inc. to fill this need. Please feel free to contact me about
your web or video projects. |
