We may breed her to Bad Cat in the future, so stay tuned!
Sheeba is available as a broodmare only, due to lameness in her front leg.

DeMille Family Horse Ranch
Beautiful, Gentle, Athletic, Smooth Riding Gaited Horses!
Our Mares & Fillies
​
People too often only look at a horse's sire, but every horse gets half its genetics from the dam... A great Sire and great Dam combined make truly exceptional foals! We believe people looking at gaited horses want the smoothest ride a horse can give, so we train every horse to do the gait they do the most effortlessly and smoothly. This is what we call their "natural gait" and is what they predominantly do loose in the field as well as under saddle. We do not raise horses that "Naturally" Just Pace or Hard Trot, even though an athletic horse can usually do both those "poor" gaits as well as the smooth ones. All our horses gait very smoothly, although there will be variations in color, size, style of gait, etc.
We have been in the Gaited Horse business for nearly 30 years and have built our stock up from several ranches that were breeding them selectively for many generations...some even before the Foxtrotter, Tennessee Walker, Racking, Single-footing or other breed registries were formed! We only raise beautiful horses that gait naturally & smoothly, have great athletic ability & gentle minds! You can travel through many states, visit hundreds of horse farms, and seldom find horses of this quality. There are other people raising horses equal to ours, but they are few and far between. We also take pride in our "after sale service" helping make sure buyers love the horses they get from us. After looking at and riding all the "bargains" you can stand, come ride with us and FEEL THE DIFFERENCE! When you do, you will likely never be satisfied with anything else.
After each name, (SF) = Single Footing Horse & (STB) = Standardbred & (MFT) = Missouri Foxtrotting Horse

Dreamin' is a 2008, 15.1 hand, beautiful buckskin Single-Footing mare. She is a smooth riding, "gentle enough for kids but exciting for adults" type of awesome mare! Her sire is a smooth moving Kentucky Mtn Horse (50% STB) sired by White Cloud and her dam was a racing Standardbred mare, so she's 75% stb. She is super gaited at all speeds, sweet natured and a blast to ride! Her endurance is amazing! I've jumped on her, with me and my tack & pack weighing over 300 lbs, and ridden over 20 miles, through the mountains, in less than two hours without her having to rest! She is incredible gaiting through brush and rocks where most gaited breeds of horses have to slow down like non-gaited horses to walk, but not her!

Lightning is a 2008 model, 15.3 hand, gorgeous smoky black Single-Footing mare. She is loving & sweet, and truly a thrill to ride, either racing up the road or breaking brush in the mountains. Her sire is the awesome Single-footing Stallion, "Rowdy Rawhide's Lightning", and her dam is a 15mph gaiting TWH mare. She does a wide range of gaits well from a nice relaxed non-gaited walk, a 5-8mph flat foot walk, a 6-12mph running walk, a 8-20mph rack, to a 15-25mph single foot! She is well trained and gentle for all riders, but with a big motor who loves to cover the country! She has extreme endurance, the likes of which is seldom found in any breed...even world class Arabian endurance race horses I've trained! (And the whole time she's gliding along so I sit in total comfort without an inch of bouncing!) I can ride her at an average speed of 12mph for 3-4 hours straight without even resting, and she just eats up the miles like a machine! She's awesome in the hills, sliding down and climbing up steep rough terrain, very sure footed, and just more fun than words can describe to ride! We love this sweet mare.

Belle is a 15.3 hand tattooed Trotting Standardbred mare, 2010 model, sired by the famous winning standardbred, SJ Caviar, a trotter with a 1:54 track record and $1.3 million winnings. She is a sweetheart and a beauty, plus a dream to ride...glassy smooth from a 4mph flat walk clear up over 20+mph single foot, that is surefooted in even rough and rugged country. She is a powerhouse with a lot of life, not spooky, but just an enormous desire to move forward and cover country which makes her too much for a novice rider but a real thrill for a good rider. This big powerful mare was a buggy horse and used to hard trotting when we got her and after having some babies for us I decided to see if we could turn her into a gaited riding horse, as I knew her genetics and loved her sweet disposition. It took a while riding her to get her to do all the gaits well, but now she flat walks, run walks, racks and single-foots. What an amazing experience to ride her, as she crashes through brush, gaiting smoothly in uneven terrain and topping sandy hills and conquering mountain peaks, one after another with awesome endurance and glassy smooth riding at any speed! I love how I can slow her to a 6-8mph gait to rest her, the same speed many horses get winded doing, and then go back to 10-20mph for another 10 miles. This mare is a dream to ride!

Rock's Royal Corvette (SF)
​
Corvette was foaled June 23, 2017 and is a gorgeous 15 hand bay, sired by The Rock and out of Princess, a Missouri Traveler bred MFT mare who very smoothly flat walks, foxtrots, run walks, racks and also single-foots over 20mph!!! She is amazingly gaited and very friendly and so beautiful! She gaits smooth as any horse I've ever ridden at all her gaits, and is extremely surefooted as well. We have her gliding through the forest at a 4-6mph flat walk, a 5-9 mph foxtrot, and doing an awesome 8-15mph rack and flies at 20+mph singlefoot. We'll continue building up her endurance at speed as we cover many miles, always focusing on her keeping a correct posture, soft mouth, obedient & submissive mind, with glassy smooth gaits at every speed, through any terrain & going up or downhill, an absolute dream to ride!

Caviar's Rocky Mountain Belle (SF)​
This gorgeous bay paint SF Mare was born on March 23, 2018. Her sire is Cherokee, a powerful 16.1 hand, smooth gaited MFT stallion and her dam is our 15.3 hand racing tattooed trotting Standardbred mare, Caviar's Southern Belle. She is a stunning beauty that rides like a dream at every speed from a gliding flat walk clear up to a 20+mph single-foot! She had several months of basic obedience training with Dal & Margo Guymon, who do an absolutely superb job training. We've put hundreds of miles on her, through the mountains and deserts and she has perfect gaits at every speed. I've cleared miles of trail with a chainsaw off her back, while she stands still for me to work, even when large limbs crash down on her...and she drags them off the trail when I tell her to. Rocky Mtn Belle is a real beauty and a sweetheart!

​
This gorgeous dark bay mare, born 4/25/18, is sired by The Rock and out of a Missouri Traveler MFT bred mare, with awesome smooth gaits. She is about 16 hands, thick and powerful, and the sweetest mare I've ever known! She is an impressive athlete, both in balance & endurance and has the best smooth gaits at every speed up to 20mph! She finished a couple months of basic obedience training with Dal & Margo Guymon, who do an absolutely superb job training. We've put a few hundred miles on her, perfecting her gaits at each speed, working our way up to her potential, but focused on keeping her soft, supple, balanced, and smooth as glass as we reach for higher speeds & long distance endurance. She does not have the endurance of some of our other horses, as she's half MFT, but still will carry my 300 lbs 10 miles in 40-45 minutes before needing to rest! She will easily outdistance most other breeds of horses since she is 1/2 standardbred. Mercedes is one of my favorite horses I've ever ridden in my life.. I love her in every way! If I were to fault her, it would only be that she's a bit strong willed for timid riders and she is a boss in the herd.

Rock's Dream Lamborghini (SF)
This beautiful little 15 hand buckskin mare, born 8/13/18, sired by The Rock, out of Speed Dreamin', is truly as perfect a filly as I've ever seen in every way! She glides like a dream at every speed from 2-25+mph and is athletic as any horse I've ever seen. She is a dark sooty buckskin, solidly built, and incredibly gaited, with a great personality! She's a high energy horse who really eats up the miles and not meant for the occasional short distance rider, as she's bred to go 8-16mph for hours at a time, glassy smooth the whole ride! A gorgeous animal like this, who has TWO parents that both gait 30mph and smooth as glass at all speeds is very rare. We've now put over 1,000 miles on her, perfecting her gaits at each speed, and ridden her in all kinds of places and situations. She is a strong willed mare that you have to keep in line to prevent her being the boss, but it's easy to do if you are a confident and knowledgeable rider. She is a better horse in almost every way than most folks will ever have the opportunity of riding in their whole life, let alone owning and riding for years to come!
She is in foal to Reverend for a 2025 single-footing foal!
