Look at the ranch horse page. They are all trail horses!

The Wolfe Ranch has been turning out some of the best minded trail and ranch horses for many years. Throughout this website, if we say a horse is a "solid", "finished" trail horse, that is exactly what it is. If we say a horse is "well-started" and is "making" a good trail horse, that is exactly what that horse is. It is probably better trained than most horses, but to meet our standards, it may need more "seasoning" or more work in traffic, etc.
(1) 'DUNNY' - 2021 Dun draft cross gelding
DUNNY is broke, broke, BROKE!
This 2021 Dun Gelding is about the best broke young horse you will ever find. He is sired by a part Percheron stallion out of a Driftwood bred quarter horse mare. He has great bone and really good feet. He is a 'people horse' that is the same every time you ride him. He has been used to do everything a horse can do here at the ranch, He has guided many trail rides, drug around feed when the mud was too deep (after an 8 inch+ rain), pulls hard off of the horn and lets you do anything you want to do. You can crack a whip off of him and rope off of him. He is good gaited and really easy to get along with. He is guaranteed 100% healthy and sound. He just needs a new Zip Code and a job.
Nothing bothers him. He's totally traffic safe.
We live on an extremely busy US highway. In this snapshot his rider is swinging a whip from side to side. [Dunny is so worried about it that he is resting a hind leg.] This is just pretty much his attitude about everything. You can snub colts to him. He will pull hard off of the horn. He will make a great ranch horse or trail horse for someone.
Dunny gets used like a 4-wheeler here on the ranch
If I don't sell him pretty quickly, This young man is not going to get anything else really broke. This is his 'go to' horse for everyting. You coulden't count the number of 5 and 6 year olds he has led from him on trail rides.
Video of this 2021 buckskin (dun) gelding feeding hay on the ranch. YouTube link:
DUNNY has excellent conformation!
Dunny has good withers, excellent deep heartgirth, good laid-back shoulder and a short back. He is built to be strong, carry a big rider all day, every day and stay sound. He has perfect, clean straight legs and really good feet. He has great manners. Stands tied good, bathes, shoes, trailer loads, rides good in a trailer, stands still for saddling, mounting, and carrying things. He is just really 'broke' way beyond his years. He acts more like he is 10 than 3. Dunny is available for $15,000.00.
(2) 2020 Brown Mare - Great trail horse!
'BROWNIE' (I know, not the greatest barn name)
This beautiful dark brown mare is out of a daughter of 'Call Him The Flash', our home-bred stallion that had AQHA reining points, would work a cow and would get you in position to rope either end of a steer. He was a true 'all around horse'. She is athletic, willing and able to do anything you want to do on a ranch. She is a beautiful mover.
She goes anywhere you point her head!
This 4-year-old mare has excellent conformation. She has great bone, good, solid feet, a beautiful head and neck (especially for a draft cross). She is big and solid, but not as thick as some; she takes more after her AQHA Mother and will ride more like a big, stout, but very athletic, Quarter Horse. This mare will carry a big cowboy or a big trail rider all day, every day of the week. She rides like she is 10 years old... absolutely no buck or foolishness.
Her training is ongoing, her price is reasonable.
I will take $11,000.00 for her!

2012 Good looking GRAY AQHA mare! (SOLD)
Classy Blue Flash
CLASSY is an absolutely gorgeous big gray mare. She is a 2012 model, a 12 year old mare. She has never been bred. She is sired by our late, great sire, Call Him The Flash. Her dam was one of our last daughters of Clasical Silver, one of the best cowhorse/ranch horse sires in the country. She is a sound, solid Foundation bred mare.
She is very well-trained. She has been a 'serious' trail horse all of her life. She was raised here and origionally trained here on the ranch. Several years ago she was purchased by some wonderful people from San Francisco who will be life-long friends. She was the gentleman's horse. He underwent surgery that no longer allows him to ride. They sent her back here so we could find her a suitable, wonderfull forever home.
She has impeccable manners!
Besides being beautiful, with great conformation, she has a great personality. She meets you at the gate, stands quietly to be haltered and goes with you to be brushed, bathed, shod, whatever; she loads, hauls, and does anything you ask her to do on the ground.
Classy is a very forward mare when you ride her. She is ambitious; she covers a lot of ground. She is very gentle and easy to handle. She is not 'chargy' or silly; she just walks fast and covers a lot of ground. She just has way more 'go' than 'whoa'. This makes her more suitable for an intermediate to experienced rider. She is really not suitable for a beginner rider or an insecure rider. They need a horse with more 'whoa' than 'go'. She rides alone or in a big group of riders. She rides like a gelding when you ride her. You can lead horses off of her, horses can come up on her from behind. She has never offered to buck... even when she is fresh and has not been ridden in a long time. She just has impeccable manners.
Classy as she looks today
She stands perfectly still to mount and disount. She guides easily at a walk, jog and lope. She stops, stands, and lets you do anything you want to while in the saddle. She will go anywhere you point her head. She would make a great ranch horse. She would love to have a daily job to go to. She would work her heart out for you.
Classy is guaranteed 100% sound and healthy. She has never been sick or lame a day in her life. She stands 15.2, weighs anywhere from 1100# to 1250# when she is in working shape or just standing around getting fat. She has good bone and feet. She has geat withers, holds a saddle well and has a very deep heartgirth. She shows her foundation breeding. She is a strong horse; She can carry a big rider all day, every day. SOLD!

The PERFECT CROSS! The draft attitude, bone, size and soundness with the QH ability.
Betty is Sired by Tiny (Registered Black Percheron). We believe that she is a 'smokey black' filly as she was foaled grulla color. She is absolutely gorgeous and an athletic, beautiful mover. She has more athletic ability than most Quarter Horses
Her dam was an exceptional AQHA Palomino Mare that was a granddaughter of a Zan Parr Bar and a Colonel Freckles/ Doc Bar bred cutting/ reining/ roping horse. This is not your ordinary draft cross horse. These horses have class and athletic ability and NO high maintenance feathers...They are CLEAN LEGGED and PRETTY HEADED.
If you want a draft cross that rides like a good Quarter Horse -- well, here she is.
The PERFECT CROSS! The draft attitude, bone, size and soundness with the QH ability.
The PERFECT CROSS! The draft attitude, bone, size and soundness with the QH ability.
Betty has been ridden many miles in the pasture and in the mountains. She has not had any arena riding. She is gentle and VERY athletic. Like all of the rest of these crosses, she has never offered to buck. I think she is one of the very best draft/AQHA crossbreds we have raised. She will make a super ranch/ stock horse! She is not your average kind of draft cross.
She is a little thin in this old photos but is much heavier now. She is really beautiful. She is heavy boned, has great feet, has good withers and NO feathers.
Check out this unrehearsed and unedited recent video. This is how she rides ALL of the time. This is posted to our Youtube channel -

She is very, very gentle, non reactive or spooky and is the same every day. She has never offered to buck a single time, whether you ride her often or seldom.
Anyone that can ride at all can take her anywhere you point her head. You can drag things, carry anything, do about anything on her. She has excellent manners, loads, ties, hauls, bathes, shoes, everything you expect in a broke horse.

(2) HALF PINT
(2) HALF PINT -- 2012 Sorrel grade gelding
Half Pint is a 14.1 hand small cow-bred, grade Quarter Horse gelding. [That 14.1 hands is a bit deceiving. He has very high withers and looks more like a 13.2 hand pony. He just has NO pony breeding or look to him. He is a small, well-made horse.] He is cute and very athletic. He is only 14 years old. He is very solid, very gentle and 'user friendly'. He has been used on the trail string for over 7 years, but is really way too nice to just be a 'dude horse'. Our granddaughter (pictured on him) loved riding him and went everywhere on him by herself. He is very easy to handle, a child can catch and saddle him up with no help. [Obviously, they need to know how.] Our granddaughter would catch him, jump on him bareback and ride him in from pasture with a halter. He is easy to shoe, haul, bathe, etc. He has great manners and absolutely no problems or issues. He gets along well with other horses. He is healthy and sound.
Half pint is very athletic and quick footed but absolutely gentle. Our young granddaughter (age 10 in these pics) has carried a flag on him in parades and taken him on all-day 4-H trail rides since she was 7 or 8. He would make a super youth all-around horse for 4-H or open shows for a young rider. With his high withers, there is no need to worry about a properly adjusted saddle turning on him but he will need a breast collar. He is quiet and safe for a young child as long as he is being ridden under supervision. He is not suitable for a first horse for a very young or timid beginner unless they are being supervised / instructed. He is not a 'dead-head'. HE IS NOT YOUR ORDINARY 'PONY'.
Half Pint will be available at the end of the 2024 trail riding season. Right now, we are using him nearly daily in our 'Arbuckle Trail Rides' business and need him throughout the 2024 summer season.
FLASHIN DA CLASS (Blondy) -- 2006 sorrel AQHA gelding
FLASHIN DA CLASS -- AKA Blondy - SOLD
BLONDY is an 14 year old gelding that was bred and raised here on the ranch. We have used him for everything from a pony-horse to a 'go-to' horse when we have ranch work to do. He is 100% sound, very good boned and good footed and a very useful 'ride'. He is absolutely beautiful. He is smooth gaited and easy going but darned sure not a 'dead-head'. He is probably one of the fastest horses on the ranch. He is a 'rock solid' trail horse with a lot of endurance and can be ridden hard all day, every day. He is another horse that should have been finished and shown.
While Blondy is an excellent trail horse and ranch horse, he is probably more horse than a novice rider needs. He is gentle and very well mannered. He does absolutely everything he is asked to do. He is just more horse than a beginner or a small child needs to start out on. Everyone here just loves to ride him, but we have many young horses coming up that need the riding more than he does. We are offering him for sale to someone that wants to be very well mounted. He is guaranteed sound. He has excellent feet.
SOLD - now living in California
FLASHY BLUE DRIFTER
Flashy Blue Drifter - 2012 AQHA Gray Gelding - SOLD
Sire: Call Him The Flash, our 20 year old Stallion that is Colonel Freckles and Zan Parr Bar breeding. He is also an AQHA reining point earner in very limited showing.
Dam: Lady Blue Drifter, sired by War Chiefs Pride, a double bred Driftwood stallion we used for many years and then exported to the UK. He sired many roping, ranch and cow horses that were exceptionally good boned and good footed.
Blue is a really nice, gentle, very solid ranch horse and trail horse. He will go anywhere you point his head. He has a little bit bigger motor than some of our horses, but he will go anywhere you point his head. [He is NOT silly or chargy. - just a really fast walker and a workaholic.] He covers a lot of ground and anyone that can ride a little, can get along with him -- completely 'user friendly' and well-mannered. If someone wants a great ranch horse that does not make them play 'cowboy' on a cold morning or after being turned out for months, Blue is it. He has impeccable manners, 'no buck' even after long lay-offs, likes people, and comes to you out in the pasture. He has no bad habits of any kind. He will pull off of the saddle -horn and is a good pony horse that is willing and does not tire easily. He would be a great hunting horse to take to the Colorado mountains. He is 100% sound and healthy. He is a big, stout, 15.2 hand, solid horse that will willingly give you a day's work every day. Suitable for a youth or elderly rider; can carry a big rider. Would make a great roping horse, penning horse or mounted shooting horse. 'Blue' just needs a job and a new Zip Code. Check out his photos. All are current. SOLD
