Starbucks has been bred for performance. Dam is a proven working ranch horse. Sire is a proven halter, performance, pleasure, and ranch horse. Starbucks has bred to two mares.
Performance bred for both in and out of the show ring with sound mind and athleticism. Starbucks is a very calm stallion and very easy to work with. He learns fast and is very adaptable.
At any point without equipment (halter, bridle , saddle, etc.) I can walk out in his pasture, hop on his back and ride around.
I purchased Starbucks when he was six months old. He was very large for his age and I loved his coloring. He was being weaned and was not halter broken. I halter broke him in a few days and gained a friend.
Starbucks was in a pasture with a 4-year-old thoroughbred gelding ex-race horse, Ruler, and a 27-year-old gelding Shetland pony, TOBY, 10 hands tall. They were best friends and shared food.
I sold Ruler in December 2006 to a horse lover in Bandera, Texas. A few days after Ruler left, TOBY died from a heart attack and Starbucks was very depressed. I have never seen depression emotion with horses until that day.
I purchased a miniature stud donkey, Eeyore, who had been abused. Starbaucks and Eeyore are now best friends. So, I have two studs who play together all day in the same pasture, which is very unusual.
