We are delighted to witness Rodeo settle in his new home with not only a loving human family but with a loving horse family, he joins Ferrara Flame, August Thunderchief Ebene du Grez and his muse Tuscany Comet.
Ben and Karen are familiar faces within the Appaloosa world and we are very excited to watch their relationship with Rodeo bloom…
