We are very excited to add Champion true black GLR Arappaho to our herd. Arappaho is a striking suri herdsire with rare bloodlines, from the outstanding breeding program at Great Lakes Ranch, Brad and Jandy Sprouse. Arappaho was named Black Male Champion at both the 2009 AOBA National show in Cleveland with over 800 suris and was also Champion at MAPACA in 2009. He was only shown twice in 2009. His fleece has that sought after extreme greasy feel and is lustrous throughout each lock. He has well defined, consistent locks across the blanket with coverage to his toes and his conformation is exact with strong bone.
Arappaho is a Shavano son out of an outstanding Synergy daughter. Shavano is half accoyo, true black and the 2010 Dark Herdsire of the Year. He was Black Male Color Champion as a juvenile at the 2006 AAA Futurity, and Reserve Black Male Color Champion at MAPACA that spring. Shavano went on to win his class the next year as a yearling at both the AAA Futurity and AOBA Nationals in 2007. Arappaho's dam, GLR Allelujah, is a fawn female with extreme luster and great density. Shavano is not open to outside breedings so Arappaho presents a great opportunity to add some of Shavano's rare genetics to your breeding program.
Plan your breedings now to this Champion, rare Shavano son, GLR Arappaho.
