MY APACHE MAID TWHBEA# 983929 d.o.b. 3-29-98 Height: 15.1 hands Sire: Apache's Roscoe Dam: Breezy April
"Dixie" is a very elegant mare with moderate bone and size. She has a spirited disposition and is a senior boss mare in our herd. She is also the resident baby sitter and enjoys supervising the foals even when she doesn't have one of her own. She has striking black and white color, a long strided walk, and a very refined head. Although Dixie herself is quite an opinionated mare, her foals have been uniformly gentle and mellow tempered.
Dixie received her call name when we purchased her as a weanling from Judy Crunk in Alabama many years ago. Judy was very particular about her breeding program and she spoke highly of Apache's Roscoe, Dixie's sire. He was a finer built stallion with an incredibly smooth and natural gait. Her pedigree also includes Marshall Dillon, Carbon Copy, and Sir Winston S.
This mare is an excellent mother, easy breeder, and consistent producer of colorful, well gaited babies. Her son, Tennessees Apache Gold, won a National Field Trial Championship for his owner several years ago. Her foals have also frequently outgrown her, and Tennessees Apache Gold himself grew to a whopping 17 hands.
Update: Dixie is now being offered for sale with her 2010 filly at side. Dixie is an easy breeder, easy keeper, and requires little intervention for care. Current on worming, and hoof trims. Produces tall foals with good minds, beautiful conformation, and strong gaiting ability.
