Pictured above is Dena Plendl, S&D Stables, LeMars, Iowa with NFF Wilson's Society King, in the 2006 Southern Minnesota Classic show

 

I have a number of videos on www.youtube.com under the user name tncwalkerlover. Go watch this gorgeous boy strut his stuff.

  

King with Sandra van den Hof, summer 2009. King is maturing into a nice stallion!!  Oscar and Sandra took a number of great photos you will see on this website!!

Here are a couple of photos that Geri Becker, Twin Oaks Portraits,  took of King when she visited. King loves to show off and one of his favorite things to do is chase around the paddock with Cecil. Cecil can outmanuever King and it's a hoot to watch these two play.

We were thrilled to have King in training with Dena at S&D Stables, LeMars, Iowa for the 2006 year. King was shown at the Southern   Minnesota Classic in Albert Lea, MN June 22-24 and several other NWHA shows throughout the Midwest.See photos below for   the Southern Minnesota Classic! King did real well at that show. He got 2nd place in the Open All Breed Trail Obstacle in hand class with Ashley Fronnes showing him. Thank you, Ashley!

 

Check out our Show Results page for the show placings and some short video clips of our horses in action. In 2007, we began  offering King at public stud to approved mares. Contact me for breeding contract. We  have frozen semen a available for shipping. King has been collected at Hoffmann Stables, Preston, Minnesota and his sperm count is very good, motility  rate  after thawing is 50%.  We are excited about branching out with artificial insemination.

 

I can get fresh semen if you wish but it will take some coordination as I live two hours from where King needs to be hauled to be  collected and I will have to take time off work to do this. It's not a problem with a couple days of advanced notice.

 

King did well showing in 2007 and is the MWHA Association Three Year Old Futurity Champion!!!

 

King is a dream horse! He has good looks, correct gait and a wonderful disposition that he has passed on to his 2007 foals.   King  has no recent WGC's in his pedigree and no Pride of Midnight.

 

Stud fee will be $450 for 2010 to approved mares.  He has been tested and is EVA negative and vaccinated. Some changes for  2010 - shipped cooled semen is available with two days notice. I need to take time off work to haul King to Minnesota for the collecting and shipping.

 

 

 

Here is a video of King and Dena at the 2007 Minnesota Walking Horse Association Celebration

King is very loose moving and long strided and passes this on to his foals

 

 

This is King pictured with his constant companion, Cecil when they were both yearlings.

They are about the most unlikely pair of friends I've seen in a long time. King is now

tall enough that Cecil can walk under his belly but they still stick together like glue. They are both

five years old now (2009)  and still the best of friends.

Williams King, my King's maternal grandsire. I saw this horse in person before he died and he was awesome.

He was a big horse with a long strided, head shaking walk. He was as gentle as he was big.

My son, David, took this photo of King when he and his wife Kate were visiting in July 2008. I like this picture, it shows King's handsome face and kind eye and very dirty nose!
