Tennessee Walking Horses - Jus' Fine News & Views

present
January 16th 2010. We have donated another beautiful black Tennessee Walking colt, this time to a local Elementary School so that they may raffle him off and raise funds for school activities. This handsome, registered, purebred colt is sired by Generator 101 out of Jose's Country Sue, and will be a year old on May 2nd, 2010. His pedigree can be seen here. We have agreed to pay for the transfer of his registration to the new owners as well. Please contact Joan at the Bruderheim School for tickets (780) 796-3936 and support this worthy cause! The draw date is March 4th, get your tickets now! - - - - - - - November 8th. We received a very nice email and photo from one of our clients north of us. They also own the gelding Melanie raised and showed (Jus' Touch My Shadow), and almost two years ago purchased two Generator 101 fillies from us. Looks like they are doing well! Send us photos of your offspring by My Touch of Pride or Generator 101, we will be glad to post them on our site! ~ ~ ~ November 1st. I spent the weekend finally installing the Nelson automatic waterers for our horses so we wouldn't have to be messing with hoses and troughs in the freezing winter weather. We are not sure how quick they will adapt, as many of our mares grew up here or have been here for 10 years or more... My knees and back are sore, but I am SO glad it is done... now all we have to do is clean the yard up and get rid of the mud from all the trenching. ~ ~ ~ Our last foal of the year... Early in the cool morning October 1st, about a week early, Perfectly Dangerous produced a healthy stud colt sired by The Stonecutter. With the background coloring similar to his mother, he should be a fancy boy, and he can take a step... The photographs make him appear gray, but he has a redish color to him. Here is a page with more baby photos TWHBEA Regional Futurity 2009
	We were fortunate to bring home some ribbons and trophies again this year. Jus' Too Hard to Resist (The Stonecutter x Collector's Spring Bloom) won the Weanling Colt class, and followed it up by winning the Weanling Championship! Our second entry in the weanling colt class, Jus' A Girl Watcher, who is by Our American Eagle x Santana's Pretty Woman, placed 4th as we had some trouble getting him to stand still in the lineup. Melanie did not agree with the decision as she thought she beat me... :) The only weanling filly we had at the show, Miss T. Williams (Ted Williams x Kentucky Duck) was Reserve in the Weanling Filly Class. Of course we would have liked to have brought all our weanlings to show, but lack of time and trailer space made the decision for us. We also prepared Pushers King of Jazz for owner Morley Holman. Morley had purchased the colt from us last year after we won the Futurity Weanling class and the Championship. Melanie showed very well again and came away with the Yearling Colt Blue Ribbon, as well as the Championship in the Yearling division. Entries in the Futurity sired by Generator 101 also placed well. Jus' One Step Ahead was sold to Greg Czech last fall after she won the Futurity Yearling Filly Class. She won the Two Year Old In Hand class this year, and also won the Two Year Old under saddle class. A second entry in the two year old In Hand Class was Reserve Champion Filly, also sired by Generator 101. Overall, we were very pleased with our entries in the Futurity, as well as those shown by others sired by our horses. Congratulations to all who made the effort to show! Thanks to KTKlassen for great Futurity photos! ~~~~~ ~ 2010 Regional Futurity ~ Jus' Fine has offered to sponsor a Yearling In Hand - Extended Gait class for the 2010 Western Canadian Regional Futurity, with a perpetual trophy, a "keeper" trophy and great cash prizes. Show your interest in entering this class for next year and we will see you there! ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ BREEDING ~ My Touch of Pride will be 23 years old in 2010, and in response to client requests, we may accept a few mares for the 2010 spring breeding season. He is beginning to show his age, and this may be the last opportunity to breed to a horse with his background. He has been the only stallion in Canada we know of at stud by 1984 WGC Delight of Pride. His colts have been sold to Germany, across the US and Canada, and their show records have been outstanding! Thanks to all who booked and bred their good mares to him this past year! If you require information on our stallions or would like to book your mare for 2010, please do so early - season closes end of June!

	May 15 2009 Our Ritz colt out of Beam's Valentine 95, Key to the Ritz was shown at Petersburg, TN in the open yearling division and won the class against stiff competition! The first Blue of the year in his first show appearance in Tennessee! He also competed at the Fun Show in Shelbyville on May 23d and placed 3rd in a class of 6 good entries and we had many positive comments regarding his appearance there! Key to the Ritz has been sold! ***************** The company that provided our 60 Second Survey is no longer operating, so a new one will be created and back on our site soon. After numerous requests for more photos, we will are assembling an album of the offspring of each of our broodmares, as well as candid shots of our horses. Enjoy! *** If you are in the area, please give us a call to make sure we are home, and stop in for a visit! * * * Apparently, there are some horses out there who still do not have their own stall plaque... We are still making them, so keep the orders rolling in! They make great Christmas gifts and awards, or a nice touch when selling a horse, order yours now!
