04/04/2012-- Congratulations Rhocky Rhoad's first Purebred grandson has been born in Germany!! He is gorgeous and colorful!!
04/03/2012--
Breeding season has kicked off.....I took Rhocky Rhoad into the collection facility for the first time this year, as we were shipping to FL.
 This was a new handler that came to the trailer with halter and chain in hand. I told him 'typically' they do not use the chain, I sensed his hestitation, but since they had two lines, he assured me he would not 'use' it unless needed. After about 20 minutes of Rhocky being excited, but not doing anything. I reminded them, he generally does not wear a chain, I don't think he will do anything with one on. Heeding my advice they dropped the chain and within minutes, Rhocky fulfilled his duty and his 'goods' were shipped to FL!
Photo to the left is his exit from the facility--no chains and an apology for the awesome stallion that needs a kind hand to feel like he 'can' do his duty, even though the tease mare said 'bring it'.
Above, I photoshopped the photo of the mare that we were shipping to.
