"Trust - the sence of horse training!!!"
It is not only the words; we live and work with this motto.
We accompany every foal / horse as long as it is possible on its life path. We will give our young horses only in the best hands, and they are prepared for their sport future. This program is possible only over time and with understanding. Quite natural the financial stimulation must be given to mare owners.
From this point of view we made a decision to rest much hopes on your mares and our stallions and it means money in the near future.

Your mare will be covered by one of our stallions. Mare owners incur no costs for covering. We offer cool and frozen sperm. The costs for shipment and insemination are paid by the Longhorn Ranch. At the nature spring a mare stays in the Longhorn Ranch free during the time for covering. A mare owner receives a buyback guarantee for a healthy and not maladjusted foal at the rate of 2.000,- € (DQHA-elite mare: 5.000,-€; ROM mare: 4.500,- €; mares with NRHA winning sum over 10.000 €: 4.500,- €) on delivery. It is agreed that the Longhorn Ranch is a place of delivery. The delivery of foals takes place in ca. six months after their birth. Full costs after the birth are paid by the Longhorn Ranch, a smith and a veterinarian services are included. On the delivery the Longhorn Ranch’s bills for a smith and a veterinarian services are settled against the presentation of the initial bills. If a foal is not sold to the Longhorn Ranch the covering rate is payable at the rate of 2.000,- €. The possible costs for the services of a smith and a veterinarian are not refunded. In this case the following specified premiums are without substitution because the Longhorn Ranch has no impact on breeding and later training.
