Desert Spirit Appaloosas

15/07/2025

It is a GREAT HONOR to have the Mighty Sprite featured in the summer ApHC Journal! Julie Figg has done a phenomenal job achieving Sprite's Championships. Some fun facts about this amazing horse... he visited our son's school class to educate about Appaloosas as a suckling. He was shown as a weanling and yearling at our OTAHC breed show and Won Reserve FPD Champion his yearling year! He won classes in hand at our obstacle course competition He also was an ambassador for our club at the Bend Christmas parade as a long yearling. His heart belongs to the endurance trail, I always knew this but knew it would be a special person to take him to the TOP! Julie has been the perfect match. 🥰 All this talent and achievements from a horse whose parents had no show records or big achievements themselves... just good brains and conformation! 😉

It's been a whirlwind since we got home from Tevis...
We had 2 full days of horse dentals here so everyone (except Windsong) is up to date on teeth for the year. I can never thank Dr. Jessie Heinrick enough for taking care of my crew. 🥰
Didn't get pictures of everyone, but here's a few.
