Trickle Creek Ranch
The best in Half-Arab working western color!
As with anyone that breeds horses, their girls are very near and dear to their hearts. Our girls are no exception. We've come to love the arabian breed for their beauty, intelligence, personable nature, athletic ability and heart. We are concentrating on acquiring mares by Al-Marah stallions as well as some well-bred polish mares, also sired by some of the best working western stallions in the business. We're so proud to have these girls as a part of our program and we are looking forward to adding a few more to the pot - hopefully soon!
Red Nectar
We acquired "Red" from Al-Marah in June of 2005. She was in foal to AM Power Raid++\ and produced a gorgeous gray colt, DS Powereddy, that you can view under "horses we've sold" on our for sale page. Thus far, Red has proven to be everything we've hoped for and expected from her breeding. Her sire is AM Good Oldboy. Please see all of the foals she has produced for us on our foals page. Red was bred in 2008 to Shiner Dun It for a Half Arabian foal, who is now listed on our for sale page (TCR Alredy Dun It). We loved this filly so much that we decided to rebreed Red to Shiner in 2010 for another one! Keep your eyes peeled as this little one will also be available for purchase in 2011!

SAS Arielle
We found "Arielle" in Springfield, Ohio in February of 2008. She was bred by Pam and Eric Stowe of Stowe Arabians. Pam & Eric didn't know what hit them when we called them inquiring about Al-Marah Horatio fillies that they might have for sale. Arielle wasn't for sale at the time, but by the grace of God, Pam explored our website and fell in love with our stallion, Shiner Dun It and the wheels in her head started turning. Arielle was their "dream filly" and they had worked hard and waited a long time to get her. Poor Pam is still somewhat in disbelief that she's agreed to let this filly go, but we here at Trickle Creek Ranch are sure glad she said that she would (and we kept the email documentation to proove it)! 
We just can't get enough of these good-minded Al-Marah horses and Arielle is no exception! She has a gorgeous head, just like her daddy and a killer hip, just like her momma (we like big butts)! We couldn't have asked for more if we pieced her together ourselves! We are proud as heck of this filly and we can't wait to get her into the show ring. Arielle will show in whatever events she excells in, be it reining, cutting or working cow. Our goal with her is to enter her in reining classes first and then further her career as a working cow horse and a cutter. After seeing her natural born abilities, we believe she's going to be a superstar! Arielle has been confirmed in foal to our stallion, Shiner Dun It! She is due in late March 2011.
Accidentaly Alice
We purchased "Alice" as a riding horse for Dan in October of 2007. She's the most mellow horse you'll ever meet! She's the perfect horse for Dan as she comes with 18 months of professional reining training from Crystal McNutt and Thiago Sobral, so she is ready to go for anything! She is a very thick & chunky horse and most people that see her for the first time do a double-take and question again whether or not she is a purebred. Most people think she is a quarter horse until they see her profile - then it's obvious she's an Arab!.
Our son, Camden, showed Alice in a few sport horse in hand classes. They showed together at the Saguaro Classic in December 2008 and came out with a 3rd place! Not bad for their first time out! Alice also placed 3rd in the open class with Jackie Alkin. We are very proud of her!
Alice also recently went to Flagstaff, AZ (2009 summertime Mormon Lake event) for her first team sorting event with Stacey. They took home $200 and the first place in their class!
Dan has been tinkering with Alice and the idea of some team penning and sorting - but just for fun - he isn't interested in the show circuit. As you can see, she's truly a family horse that we can all enjoy...we LOVE that about her!
Alice has an impecable pedigree on her and she will fit very nicely into our breeding program with her heritage being full of great athletes and champions. Alice is quite the versitile individual!

TR Sumerbrez
We came across Breeze through some great friends of ours, the Quinns (Rising Q Ranch). Troy Quinn has been shoeing our horses since about 2006 and he's the best darn shoer I've had since I've started in this business. That aside, he's a pretty nice guy, too. Over time, we came to meet his family. His wife Veronica is now a dear friend and their daughter Nichole is a great kid! Through them, we learned more about the Russian lines of the Arabian horse and learned that they'd been doing business with Rick Taylor of Taylor Ranch for years. They were kind enough to introduce us to Isaac Taylor, Rick's son, at the Scottsdale show in 2009. As conversation progressed, the Taylors were kind enough to allow us to lease a mare from them so we could breed her to our own stallion and see what the Russian horses could do with the lines we were promoting. We fell in love with Breeze from the start. She was so personable! And that face...we couldn't get over her face! After getting her in foal, we found out that she was also broke to ride, so we started riding her out on short trail rides. We were amazed at the fact that she was only green broke, but was so obedient and well-mannered. She didn't spook at anything and was even safe enough for Dan to ride out by himself on the trail! It was only our intension to lease her and return her after she foaled, but when we added up the fact that she was so lovable, was broke enough for Dan to ride, and she threw the most incredible foal out of Shiner, we just had to inquire about keeping her! Of course, as the Quinns had told us, Isaac and his father Rick are very easy people to deal with...and it looks like Breeze has found a new home here at Trickle Creek Ranch! We're elated!
