Dusty Lane Miniatures

Breeding for Conformation, Athleticism, Pedigree, and Disposition



Welcome to Dusty Lane!

We've headed south !!
(But there are many fond memories associated with Wisconsin.)

After many years of enduring harsh winters, frozen water tanks, etc., Dusty Lane has pulled up stakes and moved to Arkansas!!

Dusty Lane Miniatures got it's start in 1991 in northwest Wisconsin. A former barrel racer, I couldn't be without horses after seriously injuring my knees...and found these little guys. The first foal born at my place was a National Top Ten All Star in jumping numerous times, but that was with my niece running him around the pattern. Those early days were gruelling, and a lot of fun, hitting the show circuit in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, and Illinois as well as the AMHR Nationals....in addition to commuting 120 miles a day to a job in St. Paul MN.

In September 2005, I got smart and decided to move out of the frozen tundra (but I'm still a Green Bay Packers fan) and moved to a ridge between Greenwood and Booneville, Arkansas. And it's proving to be the best thing I've ever done!

My herd is usually around 20 head (plus foals). All but two of my horses are AMHA/AMHR....the other two are B mares that are here FOREVER. Over the years my program has seen several changes, but one very important constant has been Hilltops Little Vegas, buckskin/dun son of Iowas Little Kernel, and now pushing 26 years of age (pictured above). He has produced several National Top Tens that have style and grace, and movement. My problem....they are too easy to sell, and I have very few here to carry on his legacy! Along with Vegas, my bloodlines include Richters Apache, Dippers Dipsy Doodle, Ramundo, Buckeroo, Gold Melody Boy, East Acres Golden Jubilee, Rowdy, and other well known lines.

My lifelihood these days is my web design business for miniature horse breeders and other small business...better known as Dusty Lane Designs. Visitors are always welcome here on the ridge...and thanks for stopping by to visit me on the web.
