Call Me A Renegade came into my life on August 31, 2006.   Jim Sancken told me that he had too many stallions and wanted to sell him.  We really didn’t need a stallion but I had seen the horse and really liked him.  I loved his sire, River City Renegade when Dudley Pillow and I visited Steward Quarter Horses years ago.   I thought he had as much muscle as one could put on a horse and he had such a tremendous hip besides.  It didn’t hurt that he was a 2 time World Champion either.  At the time when I bought Renegade (or Larry as we call him) I didn’t know anything about his dam.  I later found out that she stands 16.2 and is sired by Wildest who is a world champion palomino.  I have a picture of her and as you will see from it, she is the “right kind” of mare to be the dam of  a stallion prospect.

At the time that I bought Larry, he was leading the state of Wisconsin in halter and was qualified for the World in Amateur with 10 shows and 10 wins.  He also had 6.5 open halter points with 13 wins, 4 Grands and 6 Reserves.  As all of you know, showing is not my thing, so Larry’s show career ended with these accomplishments.

Garrel Chiasson called me one day and asked me  what kind of money it would take to buy Call Me a Renegade.   Garrell is building a new horse facility in Magnolia, Mississippi and was looking for a good NN stallion to compliment it.  We came to an agreement on price and he decided to leave Larry here in Wisconsin, at least for the 2007 breeding season while Garrell completes his facility.   I normally don’t like to stand stallions but this horse has such a wonderful disposition, I don’t mind having him around.  I also don’t think that I have told you that we have expanded our lab and Dr Fox is planning to run her breeding operation out of our facility.  It will be a full service facility and will include embryo transfer, semen freezing, shipping both cooled and frozen semen and stallion collecting.  What better place for a stallion like Larry to stand.

In my opinion Call Me A Renegade offers a lot to the halter industry.  He is very correct and solid in his legs.  He has the gorgeous top line and great hocks that we are all looking for and he has a pretty head and a long neck.  Besides all that,  he has the width, muscle, and big hind leg  that a  lot of the NN stallions don’t have.  I think that  keeping muscle on our horses is so important to our industry.  His introductory stud fee will be $1000.00 and he is in the Incentive Fund. Please contact me for any information that you may have about him.
