Welcome to Wolf Creek Quarter Horse Ranch!
Here we specialize in the working western horse. We started out as just a stock horse facility but we have now opened our doors to horses bred and desinged for the working western. We currently have Quarter Horses, Paints, Arabians and Morgans.
Our goal here at Wolf Creek, is to breed the excellence for reining, cutting and working cow horse. We have selected well bred horses of each of these breeds and brought them to our ranch to help start a wonderful foundation program! We are anxiously excited to have our first major foal crop coming up in 2007! We have a couple of outside stallions breeding to some of our mares but we have focused on getting our stallions promoted by breeding them to our mares! So keep an eye out for those 2007 foals that will be arriving starting in about January 2007.
What we have for facilities are four barns. We have the stallion barn which can hold up to 35 stallions. The stallion barn stalls are 18X16 with automatic water, sliding doors, turnout pens for each stall. There bars on the stalls and there is an opening on each stall on the right hand corner on the outside to put their food in. There is a rubber bin to put grain in and then a rubber lined area that is a holder to put the hay in. This is to seperate the hay from the grain. There is a big six horse tie area with outlets to plug into for clipping and dividers between each to tie the horses up in when saddling and grooming.
Next is the mare barn. Which can hold up to 45 mares. Their stalls are 18X16 and the same exact deisgn as the stallion barn.
There is the yongstock barn which has 30 stalls to it and they are all designed the same as the others.
The foaling barn has 30 stalls to it and the stalls are 20X20 with the bottom half of the stalls covered in a soft but firm padding to protect the mares when they go down for labor and to protect the foals. They are built other then the padding and size the same way.
We have a seperate barn that is in the center of the connecting of all barns that is a ten horse wash area. Each is sepeated by dividers to keep the horses seperated. They all have hot and cold water connections and areas to hold shampoos, conditioner, scrapers, and other bathing essentials.
We have an indoor and outdoor handwalker to cool down the horses after their excersies. We have two big indoor arenas. One in which we have setup for shows that has bleachers, a judges booth, a show office, concession stand booth, restrooms, and announcers booth. There is all a winners circle that the show holders can fancy up to their liking. We have speaker systems through the facilities and even outside so exhibitors know when they are up. We have satalite radio to listen to during riding. This plays throughout the entire facility. We have two outdoor arenas. One is setup for cattle work. Which has a roping shoot for rodeos that get held here and for cutting, team penning, working cow horses. The other arena is just your average arena. Our cutting arena though is covered. Both of our indoor arenas are equipped to handle cattle work to them with easy ways of closing everything up so it is not in the way during shows and when not in use.
We have those portable stalls standing at all times for overnight travelers and long shows. These are equipped with automatic waters and it has a special line that we shut off when not in use and make sure all the pipes are drained to ensure no pipes break during our winter season.
