Los Parejo Canela
17 yr old Paso Fino Mare that joined Gentle Reins Ranch on April 23, 2009.
Electra El Prim, 20 yr old Paso Fino Mare on the left and Los Parejo Canela
on the right. Electra's barn name is Betty Boop and Canela's barn name is Suzie.
Brokat, aka Little Rock, arrived on Cinco de Mayo from the same herd as Betty Boop
and Suzie. He is a 4 yr old stallion, his growth badly stunted from what I believe to be malnourishment. Hopefully we will
get him filled out here and he will grow somewhat taller. Right now he is about 6 inches shorter than my 2 yr old gelding
paso, Mac.
Here you can see the height of my 2 yr old gelding on this side of the stalls.
Mac and Little Rock getting acquainted over the stalls. I put Little Rock in a different
stall for the night until they get more acquainted and I can trust them next to each other.
