Cinders was just the male we had been looking for the quite a few years, to breed to our Shavano and Rastamon daughters. We purchased this beautiful male from Beth Roy of Suri Peak. Cinders had his first offspring on the ground in the spring of 2012 and his kids showed at the 2013 GWAS in Denver coming out of the ring with blue ribbons and much acclaim. Of the four entered all four won blue ribbons with Mystique going on the win the Reserve Color Championship. With a biopsy density of 67.5 at four years old, this guy has some impressive fiber stats. His first Great Lakes Ranch offspring certainly did not disappoint in 2015 nor in 2016. Cinders is the 2016 AAA Futurity Dark Herd Sire of the Year! Needless to say Cinders is a welcome addition to our herd sire line up. Cinders is closed to outside breedings.

GLR Alia is a true black daughter of Shavano and GLR Allelujah. Alia is a full sister to both GLR Arrappaho, and GLR Ali siblings with outstanding show records, including multilple color championships at the largest shows in the nation. GLR Ali was also the Black Color Champion at the Suri Network Fleece Show.Shavano was the 2010 Hersdire of the year and has continued to produce a long list of offspring who have won mulitple blue ribbons and championships. Alia has luster, solid conformation and presence and like her siblings has been a great addition to our foundation herd with her proven genetics and pedigree. She was first at the 2013 AAA Futurity and was first again at the 2013 MAPACA Jubilee where she went on to win the Black Female Color Championship and 1st and Reserve Black Female Color Champion at AOBA Nationals standing behind her pal, Shavano daughter GLR Jamaica who won Color Champion and Judges Choice! GLR Alia at her first show of 2014, AOA Nationals, was the Black Female Color Champion and the Black Female Color Champion again at the 2014 AAA Futurity in Kansas City. She also won the Black Color Championship at the 2014 Suri Network fleece show in Estes Park. Can't wait to see what she produces! She was bred to Cinders and has a beautiful jet black daughter, GLR Alta at side who most definitely will be a member of our show string next year in 2015.
