Pinto Miniature Horses and Shetland Ponies join the Desert Wind family!!
DVM Grand Bazinga (HOF), aka Zinga
AMHA/AMHR/Pinto, 34 inches tall
(Buckeye WCF Leeland Royal Grand (HOF) x Jones Justa Little Jazz (HOF) )
Zinga is a very colorful addition to our herd! He is a buckskin pinto, with a lot of white! He tests as a tobiano and sabino! He also has one blue eye! His color testing shows that he carries one tobiano pinto gene, one sabino gene, one dominant agouti gene, is Ee (so can produce red or palomino foals) and he has one cream gene. He does not carry any grey, LWO, dominant white nor splash genes. He is sired by Buckeye WCF Leeland Royal Grand, a HOF Halter Shetland stallion, who now lives in Australia! Zinga's dam is Jones Justa Little Jazz (HOF), who is a daughter of Jones Blue Boys Texas Tornado (a HOF Halter Stallion himself). She is a maternal great-granddaughter of Little Kings Black Velvet, who is a well known son of Boones Little Buckeroo! She was also named an AMHR Hall of Fame Superior Dam in 2022!! This makes Zinga a little over 50% Shetland in breeding. He is triple registered....AMHR/AMHA/Pinto. Zinga made his show ring debut as a 3 year old in 2018. He earned a Reserve National Champion Title in Country Pleasure Driving that first year! He came back as a 4 year old to win a National Championship in 3 & 4 year old Country Pleasure Driving! He also won a Reserve National Championship in Model Halter Stallions!! He also earned his HOF in country pleasure driving during 2019!! He has proven himself to have a super, super mind and temperament! We are so very, very pleased with this boy! He is now retired from the show ring and began his breeding career in 2021! We are thrilled with his first foal born in 2022....a colorful filly who we call 'Bee'. She has a super, super disposition and is very showy. Zinga followed up with a gorgeous 2023 chestnut sabino colt who is also extremely correct and showy!! Then 2024 brought another gorgeous and very correct palomino pinto colt! He's hitting it out of the ballpark so far as a sire!
DW Scouts Smokin Wardance, aka Smokey
AMHA/AMHR/Pinto, 33 1/2 inches tall
(Mini Gaits Midnight Wardance x Lucky Four Domino Glamour Games)
Smokey is our future junior sire. He is a gorgeous silver dapple! He is not grey, so will never turn white. He will remain this color through-out his life. He is also homozygous for tobiano pinto, so will always produce a pinto foal...guaranteed! He is sired by Mini Gaits Midnight Wardance, a son of Willow Creeks Thunder By Wardance (who is a son of Flying W Farms Little Wardance, a sire of World and National level winners). Smokey's dam is Lucky Four Domino Glamour Games, a daughter of GRF Royal Star Designer Domino. Domino is a World Top Ten Halter Stallion. He is also line bred to L&D Scout, who is a well known show horse himself and also a producer of top quality show horses! Smokey's maternal grandmother is sired by Lucky Four Rebels Chasin Rainbows, a World Champion Halter Stallion himself and a World Champion Sire. He was exported to Australia. Smokey has multiple show horse champions coursing through his blood! We look forward to a very bright future for this little guy. He has not disappointed us in the show ring so far!! In only 3 shows during 2022, he earned the National title of Reserve Champion AMHR All Star for the Western Stock Halter Stallions Under division!! In 2023, he earned the National All Star titles of: Reserve National Champion Amateur Stock Halter Under, 3rd in Multi Colored Stallion Halter Under and he was 6th in Stock Halter Stallions Under! He also is down to just 2 points needed to finish his Hall of Fame in Stock Halter! Not bad for only 2 1/2 show seasons, the first 2 with limited showing!
