PERCHERON/AQHA DRAFT CROSSES
GLENVIEW KANE (AKA - TINY) -- 2007 registered black Percheron Stallion
GLENVIEW KANE, is his registered name, but we just call him TINY. He came to us at 8 years of age, barely halter broke, He was broke to ride at the age of 10 by our son, Terry. After only a half dozen rides, they went to town for the Veterans Day Parade (above). His rider in this photo is our son, Terry, 6' 4" and well over 300# in this picture. Tiny and Terry are 'best friends forever'!! TINY has been easy to trim and shoe even though he had never had a foot picked up before he was 9 years old. Is this the kind of disposition and trainability you want?
PULLING A WAGON AROUND THE RANCH
After only a few training sessions, he was pulling wagons in heavy traffic (including many semis). He passes his calm, quiet, trainable disposition on to EVERY foal -- but, they are handy and are NOT DEADHEADS!
TINY, WHEN HE ARRIVED
At 16.3 and 1800#, Tiny is small for a Percheron, but is exactly what we were looking for to cross on our best Quarter Horse mares. But, he has the bone, feet and strength of the Percheron without being 18 hands tall.
TINY is standing at stud for 2021. He had a very successful breeding season in 2020. All visiting mares (from 4 states) went home checked in foal this year. Wolfe Ranch has 8 mares in foal to TINY for 2021, producing offspring like the colt pictured above. Our mares are show quality, 'cowbred' AQHA mares with top cutting & roping bloodlines. Most mature 15.1 to 16.1 hands and weigh 1300 pounds+. The above colt is shown at 3 weeks of age.
TINY is standing to a limited number of visiting mares in 2021 for a fee of $600.00 -- live foal guaranteed or return.

OUR PERCHERON CROSSBREDS
We purchased TINY to cross with our cowbred Regisered Quarter Horse mares
We hunted for more than 2 years for a Percheron stallion that was not real tall, but had exceptional bone and feet, a good head and was 'clean legged'. When you 'use horses' for a living and they live out in the pasture, you can't keep feathers clean. We know you don't ride a horse's head, but it hangs out there in front of you where you have to look at it all day. We've been breeding our good AQHA mares, mostly daughters of Call Him The Flash and War Chiefs Pride (Drifter) to TINY. They are producing big, stout colts that have very good bone and feet, good minds and all act like they were born broke. That calm, draft horse nature is coming through. They are very smart and learn quickly, offering little or no resistance. They aren't 'goosey' or 'spooky'. They all are maturing around 15.1 to 16.1 hands with outstanding bone and feet. They're just strong and good boned & They are 'easy on the eye'! Foals are arriving in 2021. We also have cowbred mares for sale. Some have 2021 TINY foals at side and are being bred back.
People ask "Why would you breed good Registered Quarter Horse mares to a draft Horse?"
Well, we have raised good saddle horses for more than 50 years. During that time, people have been getting a lot bigger while the good cowbred horses (particularly good cutting horses) have gotten a lot smaller. At the same time, many ranches are now raising rodeo stock, particularly bucking bulls for the big PBR and PRCA rodeos. These cows can weigh over 1600# and a lot of the bulls weigh over a ton. Saddle broncs are often 1500#. These draft cross colts are quiet and gentle natured but still have a lot more athletic ability than straight draft horses and are a lot stronger and 'thicker' than any Quarter Horse. Most importantly, THEY HAVE GREAT BONE AND REALLY GOOD FEET! They are not extremely tall like the Thoroughbred crosses are. We think Tiny is giving us the perfect cross --
We have never had an entire set of young horses that are SO STRONG, HAVE GREAT BONE AND FEET BUT NOT 17+ HANDS TALL! ALL OF THESE HORSES ARE EASY GOING AND EASY TO TRAIN! They have exceptional bone and feet without being coarse, 'Roman nosed' and clunky or 'ugly'. They are nice headed (but then Tiny has a beautiful head). They are clean legged (no 'high maintenance feathers'. They are very easy on the eye. Every one of them has Tiny's 'laid back' great disposition. They try to please from the very first time they are handled. They have less resistance and 'push-back' than anything we have ever seen. Several have been started and trained by novice riders that never trained a horse before.
His first sons and daughters are now 5 years old and are riding great under saddle, being roped off of, handling rodeo stock and are user friendly! They are just unbelievably easy to train.

2018 GRAY STALLION BY 'TINY', shown at 28 months!
This is a 2018 young stallion by Tiny pictured in September, 2020 at 28 months of age. His dam is a registered AQHA mare sired by Call Him The Flash, cowhorse and roping horse (with AQHA reining points). He is very kind and gentle natured, especially for a young stallion. He runs with mature geldings and rides like a gelding. He has been ridden in the pasture and Arbuckle Mountains after a handfull of rides.
He is Gentle, Gentle, Gentle. This colt has excellent conformation, perfect legs and feet and a very 'clean' head and neck for a draft cross. He is an excellent mover and handles himself very well. He is really big and stout, and is making a great ranch horse. He will mature 15.2 - 16.0 hands and should weigh around 1400#. He is exceptional.
This nice young stud is not being priced at this time. He rides very gentle and is exceptionally smooth gaited. He has never offered to buck and shows no resistance to anything that has been asked of him. A big "Thank you" to everyone that has wanted to buy him. HIs beautiful full sister (foaled May, 2021) is available.
We will breed a few mares to him in 2021. We are keeping our fingers crossed that he will produce his bone, feet, substance and laid back disposition in colts that are 3/4 QH and 1/4 Percheron. He is a pleasure to handle and ride.

2019 UNNAMED BAY DRAFT CROSS FILLY
Dam is an AQHA Granddaughter of PLAYGUN
Sire: TINY.
Dam: AQHA mare that is one of our best ranch mares. She is sired by Call Him The Flash, our Cowbred stallion with AQHA Reining Points. Her dam is our old PLAYGUN granddaughter. She is pictured below Number (3), with her 2020 filly - a full sister to this nice filly.
[This nice filly cut her left front coronet band as a foal. It was not a serious cut, it healed nicely BUT, it left a permanent flaw that will always grow down her hoof. She has never been unsound on it and it has never cracked open. The Vet says it will never be a problem. She is sound on it barefoot, but keeping it shod or keeping it trimmed will insure soundness, even with hard work. We always try to be very 'up front' about any defects, so now you know as much about her as we do.]
She will be big and is a beautiful mover. We have had people tell us that she could be a great hunter prospect. She will mature about 16.0 to 16.2 hands, making her one of our bigger, taller youngsters. She is ready to start lightly. Like all of our draft crosses, she could be registered with the American Warmblood Registry.

He is of good enough quality and out of a good enough mare to be a sire prospect for a ranch. He will sire strong foals with good bone and feet -- the kind that can drag a big cow or rank bull into a trailer. Or he has been gelded.. .will carry a big rider all day in the mountains.

This filly is out of our best Call Him The Flash daughter-- LEFTY
SIRE: TINY
Dam is 'Lefty', our best daughter of Call Him The Flash. Lefty's dam is a daughter of Bay Elegance, a great cowhorse that was high point Working Cowhorse back in 1982. She was sired by Doty's Socks Jr, Cheri's old AQHA Champion foundation sire with AQHA Points in 10 events and an NCHA Certificate Of Ability.
Just look at this filly's bone and feet. She looks like a well made Quarter Horse but with more bone, better feet and more size. This is the perfect cross for the rider that wants the bone and substance of a draft with the looks, ability and 'cow' of an exceptional cowbred Quarter Horse. There are few if any AQHA/Percheron crosses with her breeding and quality to be found anywhere. She is probably the most athletic and 'quick footed' draft cross that we have raised. She can really move and get around. We just wish we were not too old to ride her.

2017 DUN COLT - SOLD
2017 DUN 2 year old GELDING
Sire: Tiny, our registered Percheron stallion. Dam: Dun (turned gray) Quarter Horse mare by Drifter. Very good looking and extremely well-balanced youngster -- pictured at 21 months [February, 2019. [He could gray out, but at this point, he looks like he will stay buckskin / dun.] This is our only 2 year old in 2019. His dam was bred right before the 2016 tornado. After the tornado, all of our horses were scattered all over the region being taken care of by friends, so there were no more 2017 foals.
Draft cross gelding (photos taken February, 2019)
This gelding is a very good looking Dun (possibly turning gray) colt. Very stout, heavy boned colt that will make a top ranch / rodeo horse that will be able to handle big cattle and rough stock. He is even more heavily muscled than his sister, Butterscotch, the 2016 buckskin filly pictured above. He is a good moving young gelding with very correct conformation. He is a 'people horse' -- the first to greet you at the gate and a real 'lover'.
SOLD and living in Minnesota
2016 GRAY COLT - BIG MAC
2016 gray gelding - BIG MAC, pictured in 2021 - SOLD
This nice colt's dam is one of our best AQHA mares. She is a daughter of Call Him The Flash. She was out of a Foundation-bred ranch mare that we rode for years and used to do everything here on the ranch. He is another one that was just 'born broke'. He rides nicely at a walk, trot and lope and is already a very pleasant ride, even though he is still green and has no 'handle' yet. He has never had even a small 'hump' in his back. Everything we do with him -- well, he acts like he has done it before. He has the best attitude ever. He is VERY laid back --- a 1 or 2 on a scale of 1-10, but Mac willingly moves out when asked and is not a 'dead-head'.
This nice colt's future?
This young gelding has it all: He has color, conformation, bone, and ability. He should mature about 15.1 hands and weighs about 1400# in the photo, taken Spring, 2021. He is making an excellent ranch horse. He would be ideal for use as an arena pick-up horse or to rope and handle BIG cattle and rodeo stock.
Here is a link to a short video of Big Mac out on the trail as a baby 2 year old.
2016 GRULLA FILLY
Outstanding Grulla Filly -- Pictured at 28 months - SOLD
This filly is exceptionally good looking and has a very good disposition. Her dam is one of our best looking daughters of Call Him The Flash. This filly will mature around 15.2 - 15.3 hands. She is probably the most athletic of all of the 2016 cross-breds and sure has the color and looks to go with it. She is very good minded and very strong and thick without being extremely tall.
This big girl has been ridden many times, including on the trail and out in the pasture. She has never offered to buck or bolt. When we rode her the first time, she acted like she had been ridden several times before. It really pays off to do as much ground driving as we do. These photos were taken September, 2018 at 28 months old. She will be priced again according to her training.
