Sire: Arappaho (GLR Arappaho) ARI#
31115469 True Black Arappaho is a striking Suri herdsire with rare bloodlines, from the outstanding breeding program at Great Lakes Ranch. Only shown twice in 2009, Arappaho was named Black Male Champion at both the 2009 AOBA National show in Cleveland with over 800 Suris and was also Champion at MAPACA in 2009. His fleece has that sought-after extreme greasy feel and is lustrous throughout each lock. He has well defined, consistent locks across the blanket with coverage to his toes and his conformation is exact with strong bone.
Arappaho is a Shavano son out of an outstanding Synergy daughter. Shavano is half accoyo, true black and the 2010 Dark Herdsire of the Year. He was Black Male Color Champion as a Juvenile at the 206 AAA Futurity and Reserve Black Male Color Champion at MAPACA that spring. Shavano went on to win his class the next year as a yearling at both the AAA Futurity and AOBA Nationals in 2007. Arappaho's dam, GLR Allelujah, is a fawn female with extreme luster and great density. Shavano is not open to outside breedings so Arappaho presents a great opportunity to add some of Shavano's rare genetics to your breeding program.
Arappaho has produced many exceptional offspring. He received first place in Get of Sire at the American Alpaca Showcase in 2015, with Ale of Harmony, Elizabeth of Harmony, and BB of Harmony.
Plan your breedings now to this Champion, rare Shavano son, GLR Arappaho.
Dam: Dixie (Puddle's Dixie) ARI#
30030696 Beige, Light Fawn Dixie - a 5X champion during just one show season!! She has excellent conformation, a great Suri head, and wonderful fleece with independent lock, luster and density. She carries herself proudly and caught the judge's eye each time as she first walked into the ring. She is a Diamond River, son of Accoyo Ace, daughter.
Her offspring includes multiple champions, including Zen of Harmony - the 2017 Futurity Judge's Choice winner. Zen and Venus, Dixie's 2016 cria, took first place in Produce of Dam at the Futurity in 2017. Dixie's 2017 cria, Jupiter, is just as outstanding as her siblings, and we look forward to her show ring experience! Saturn, 2018, follows along in the mold, and in 2019, Kalee - another wonderful girl - made her appearance.
Dixie is simply an outstanding producer, always producing quality. She is easy to keep and a delight to have in the herd!
Description
Charm is an exceptional girl, with outstanding conformation, and presence. Plus superb genetics, with GLR Arappaho - a Shavano son - as her sire and Accoyo Diamond River as her maternal grandsire. Both her dam and sire were highly decorated in the show ring and have produced outstanding cria.
We first saw Charm as she was walking to the barn with her mom, just minutes after being born. She was stopping to nurse on the way. She continues to be strong and super-healthy. When weaned at under six months, Charm weighed 96 pounds. She is well-balanced with excellent conformation.
Charm's first cria was a solid true black girl, sired by Kobe of PVA. Raven has developed beautifully.... tons of fiber, with gorgeous luster and fineness - and a super-sweet personality as icing on the cake! Her 2016 cria is a boy. Prince Charming, sired by Arrow, our multi-champion black boy, was her next cria.
Charm was classified during our 2014 Suri Herd Improvement Program (SHIP) event. She received outstanding scores all around.
