From the very beginning, Snickers stood out. As a filly, she possessed a kind and quiet demeanor that immediately caught my attention during my time working with Steve and Jalene Sorenson. I halter broke Snickers, and in no time at all, I had made plans for the filly to become part of my personal string of ranch horses. She was a quick learner, gentle and in your pocket. Not to mention built.

However, Snickers returned from the range one day with a broken leg, an injury that nearly ended her life. The vet wasn’t sure she would even survive. He gave us the choice of either putting her down or turning her out and hoping she would recover on her own. We chose to give her a chance, and against the odds, Snickers pulled through. While the injury ended her future as a working ranch horse, I knew that she would be a great producer of colts.
