Description

Pine Valley's American Patriot - an exceptional multi male that we are ecstatic to have on our herdsire row. During his show career, he continuously rose to the top of his class. He championed in the only two shows where there were enough animals for a championship - unfortunately, no championships were offered for his other first place wins. He has exquisite confirmation - a perfect, boxy frame with a proud build. He's covered in soft, bright fleece that bundles beautifully as you open it with a consistency that he carries across his multiple colors.

We're extremely proud to announce that Patriot won the prestigious Best Head Award at the 2024 AOA National Show beating out 17 other animals! The icing on the cake? He's the FIRST multi animal to ever win Best Head - what an achievement!

Patriot is one of the few multis out there with champion packed genetics - be sure to check out his powerhouse pedigree. He's out of a pinto and appaloosa cross - we'll start with his sire:

Stagecoach Drulon's Cowboy (pictured), is a 7x blue ribbon winning and champion producing pinto. We absolutely love his dramatic spotting. He's sired by champion KVR's Peruvian Drulon My Fleece (pictured) and out of Snowmass Royal Rianna who's in the top 5% for 2023 EPD's.

Patriot's dam, Asgard-Acres Stars and Stripes (pictured) is also a 7x blue ribbon winner and gorgeous example of a true appaloosa. She's sired by 7x banner winner, AMAF Lucy's Little Ricky (pictured) - guess there's something about those Lucky 7's!

As one of the largest multi breeders in the Southeast, we can't wait to see the variety of colors and patterns this boy will produce with the added bonus of elevating fleeces with his extraordinary traits.

Patriot will begin breeding in 2024 and spend his summers in New York and winters in Tennessee. Special thanks to Pine Valley Farm for creating this one and allowing us the opportunity to co-own him.
