Zeppelin's Lineage: Zeppelin is prepotent for that fine fleece with gorgeous character. His dad, PHA Peruvian Taos, a stunning Legacy son, had a 22.9 AFD at 7 yrs. Zeppelin’s mom tested at 21.3 AFD at 7 years as well. Zeppelin also offers correct conformation, impressive presence, size, coverage, and substance of bone. His crimp, luster and dense lock structure are stunning and his staple length is extreme. Zeppelin is the big guy in the pasture that look s like a million bucks - he really is an impressive stud at his prime. Zeppelin is full Peruvian and 3/8 Accoyo.

We call Double Down, Busy Bee or just Bee. Mom is Deer Valley Lizzie Lou and a GWAS reserve color champion from way back and Bee is the spittin image of her Mother. Bee is conformationally correct, has a typey head with black markings on her face that give her that really pretty regal look. Bee has a long dense fleece. Bee is pregnant by BFM Taos’ Zeppelin for a 2016 cria. Bee's 2015 cria is PrairieMoon Zeppelin's Darling Girl. Darling Girl is bay black and looks just like Daddy. Bee’s Dad is CP Peruvian Buko who is also a GWAS blue ribbon winner in Halter and 2nd place ribbon winner in Fleece. Buko has sired many crias for us at our farm and they all have been stamped with that elegant regal look. Bee's 2016 is a lovely Zeppelin male with taupey fawn fleece and black markings on his face.
