In 2015 we decided the time was right to bring a herdsire of the highest quality into our herd. After much consideration we pulled the trigger and bought half interest (proudly co-owned with Snowmass Alpacas LLC) in Snowmass Velvet Touche (Son of Snowmass Touche (Sire) and Snowmass Royal Splendor (Dam)). We loved him SOOO very much we bought the other half. He is now solely owned by Happy Hounds Alpaca Ranch. AWARDS: 2010 Futurity Brown Reserve Color Champion, 2011 Futurity Brown Futurity Color Champion, 2013 IAO Brown Color Champion, 2014 Futurity Light Herdsire of the Year, 2015 Futurity Reserve Light Herdsire of the Year, 2015 Futurity 1st Place Get of Sire Dark. This extremely pre-potent male has gifted us with amazing cria's in every color from White to Rose Grey. He is currently closed to outside breedings but if you want to bring these awesome genetics home please look at our dams pregnant by him, ask about 2015-2017 cria crop sired by him, or bid high for and breeding to him for AOA. 2015-AFD-21.3, SD-5.1, CV-23.8%, >30-4.5%-Grid Sample 2016-AFD-21.5, SD-4.8, CV-22.3%, >30-3.9% 2017-AFD-20.9, SD-4.4, CV-21.3%, >30-2.5% 2018-AFD-20.7, SD-4.3, CV-20.6%, >30-2.4%

Sugar is an outstanding young female with a very bright dark fawn fleece. She is a top quality show animals which is really no surprise given her star stuffed pedigree. Her dam, Snowmass Sunset Dreams, is eight years old and is maintaining an AFD of 21. Sugars sire, CCNF Legionnaire, is a 5 year old and he is maintaining an AFD of 17.4. This could explain why Legionnaire was a 5xJudges choice winner, Futurity Champion and AOA Reserve Champion. Sigar's conformation is sound, and solid. Her fleece is high frequency medium amplitude structure and uniform across the blanket. Sugar sells with a free breeding to any Red Granites Ranch Herdsire for her maiden breeding. Our choice would be Red Granites Val D Lsere. Huge thank you to Happy Hounds Alpaca Ranch for the purchase of this girl!
