Tie N Tux pasture breeds. He is very quiet to handle and is good with the mares and foals. The Haddows dispersed all their herd of approx. 40 horses in September 2003, including Tie N Tux. They were sold Sept 14th at the new Toefield auction house, near Edmonton, Alberta.

The dam of Tie N Tux, Sonnys Black Pearl, owned by Al Sutton, is an exceptionally quiet saddle horse, very tall, hunter type black Paint.

Pearl's sire, Rustic Walkin Tall, also a very tall horse, went into dressage training and so was gelded. Last I heard he was owned by Gary and Val Loiselle of Loiselle Ranches.

Tie N Tux was bred to our CB/TB mare, Legacy Sasparillo. She foaled July 16, 2004 and threw a tall colt, Legacy Elvis, a tri-colour tobiano.

Rustic was bred to a lovely all-around palomino pony we used to have (Fruit Loops) when he was owned by Jim Noble. Fruity threw a lovely, tall, hunter type buckskin colt (Cheerios) with excellent conformation and disposition. Cheery is now on a local ranch in the Clayhurst area.

The sire of Tie N Tux is Pair of Aces, a powerfully built black tobiano owned by Greg Ukranichuk of Dawson Creek. Ace is used for show, roping and everything else. He was a nice quiet stud, and was gelded after quite a few years of stallion service so Greg could participate in events stallions are banned from. He was no problem in the ring when he was still intact, but being a gelding keeps everyone happy.

All of these horses are local horses.
