2006 Year in ReviewWhere did the spring and summer go? Time is just flying by and we are now almost into winter, 2006. We've had such a wonderful spring and summer. Lots of people came to learn about Rocky Mountain horses and our unique all natural training program - so much so that many of them fell in love and had to take one or two Rockies home with them. Others stayed and attended one of Darla Nassif's clinics and had a lot of fun. We made so many new friends and marveled at how far they came just to see us. Two families came from Alaska, another from Catskill NY, and one all the way from Paris, France. As the popularity of the Rocky Mountain gaited horse breed grows, we're looking forward to making many more friends. We can't wait! | ||||
We have added a new What People Say page to Want to show off your MMR Rocky? Drop us a note via this special email address with your favorite picture and we'll see about placing it on our special page too! | ||||
| There is never a dull moment/ from the time we're dealing with all the new foals to rounding up the mares and foals to be sorted for the individual stallion herds. |

We will continue to train using natural techniques to provide horses that have learned to trust, be confident with their rider, and to lend confidence to their rider when needed. We know it's working because so many of our clients write to us and send pictures. They are having a ball and we are so happy to have provided that horse that lets them relax and enjoy their new relationship and passion. | ||||

| Wow! 58 Beautiful Babies! Will one of them be yours soon? In 2006 our mares and stallions gave us some of the most beautiful babies we have ever seen and they just seem to keep getting better every year. This year we were blessed with 58 beautiful foals in so many beautiful colors. Amazing! We do not breed like-to-like to get color so we were very surprised to find so many chocolate WMT babies this year. Our babies are living proof that all natural is the best way to raise these wonderful horses! Why not Opt-in for our mailing list so you can keep tabs on how these great young horses are growing up? | ![]() | |||
