Description

Healing Heart is a compact, minimally spotted appaloosa with a pedigree rich in appaloosas and harlequins. Her genotype, EeAA, results in a subtle expression of her pattern, but what she lacks in flash, she more than makes up for with her exquisite fleece and delightful personality. A sweet and inquisitive “barn supervisor,” Healing Heart is always on the move, keeping a watchful eye on all the day’s activities.

Sire: Apache Gentleman
Healing Heart’s sire, Apache Gentleman, is a strikingly expressed harlequin appaloosa renowned for his ability to pass on his exceptional traits. With over 30 registered offspring, the majority of which are appaloosas or harlequins, Apache is a proven producer of both beauty and quality. Among his champion offspring are 3X Champion Apache Gentlemen’s Alchesay and Stone Pine Jolene, the 2023 AOA National Multi Reserve Champion. Apache has also earned Get of Sire accolades, including a 1st and 2nd place, thanks to his patterned and high-performing progeny. His pedigree is a treasure trove of vibrantly expressed appaloosas and harlequins. (Photos available to the right and on Apache’s page.)

Dam: Jessica Do Right
Healing Heart’s dam, Jessica Do Right, brings another layer of excellence to her genetics. Jessica is the daughter of Springtoo Skyfall, a 2X Judge’s Choice and 5X banner winner known for his stunning fleece characteristics, including exceptional brightness, crimp, and hand. He is also the recipient of multiple Spirit of the Industry awards. Healing Heart’s maternal grand-dam adds further distinction as a harlequin appaloosa and Bisturi granddaughter.

Development & Future
Healing Heart had a slow start as a juvenile and wasn’t shown due to her smaller size, but she has matured into a compact, well-proportioned young female. With her stellar genetics, she holds tremendous potential as a foundation female for appaloosa and harlequin breeding programs... or just a sweet addition to the right farm.
