The Mares of Sunrise Estate
We consider the Mares in our breeding program to be every bit as important as the Stallions to which they are bred. Consideration is given to temperament, height, conformation, bloodlines and the overall appearance when selecting our mares as it may very well be the mare, not the stallion, in many cases that determines the height and conformation of the foal. We are presently using five Stallions in our breeding program so we can be very selective in choosing what we feel will produce offspring to enhance the Miniature Horse Breed. Our mares are AMHA registered.

"Like
human beings, horses are all individuals with singular personalities, their own
virtues and their own faults.
We become bound to them for their beauty, their eccentricities, their heart, and
their love they so often return to us."
