PRESERVING THE LEGENDS OF THE PAST FOR A FUTURE WORTH OWNING

The Quarter Horse has been manipulated as a breed so much that we have forgotten what a real Quarter Horse is all about. Originally, they weren't very pretty but they were tough & gentle. Time has prettied up the breed but we have lost so much in the way of mind, bone and foot.

Form to function is everything. Slickfork Ranch's breeding program is superior from performance to conformation, reproducing only the best of the Quarter Horse characteristics. Not only does our breeding program maintain strict standards on pedigrees, our stock needs to be true in type and ability and be consistent in passing these qualities on to their offspring.
 
They may be a little slow physically maturing but it's natures way of putting everything into place the way it should be. We always breed for a conformationally sound animal.

Foundation genetics don't end at 5 generations. The results of foundation linebreeding past 6, 7, 8 or more generations is an important factor in todays true Quarter Horse.

Slickfork Ranch has some of the oldest foundation quarter horse bloodlines in history, many dating back to the 1800's.
