We are proud to offer horses from the renowned Bath Brothers Ranch in Laramie, Wyoming. Breeding top-quality Quarter Horses for over 50 years, they have a long history of producing champions in cutting, reining, and working cow horse events.
Carefully selected for their athleticism, temperament, and trainability, we work closely with each horse to develop their unique talents and strengths. Whether they are destined for working cows, jumping fences, or simply a lifetime of leisurely trail riding – we take pride in producing soft, well-rounded horses that are a pleasure to ride and own.
