Rondo’s breed is quite rare even in its native Germany. The Schwarzwalder Fuchs, translated as Black Forest Chestnut, was developed as an all-purpose farmhorse in the mountainous area of southwestern Germany.

      Attracted by their unique appearance and heritage, we imported Rondo and a yearling filly of the same breed in 2004 and look forward to their purebred and crossbred offspring.

      We believe this strong but compact coldblood draught horse of ancient ancestry offers much to the the mare owner of any number of breeds.

      Cobs, Gypsy Vanners, Halflingers, and Norikers are all obvious choices, but we leave it to your imagination to combine this fine stallion with your horse.

      We enjoy Rondo as a driving horse and for leisure riding. We also show him in demonstrations and exhibitions. He has revealed a strong intelligence in his training, readily learning tricks like the sit, the bow, and laydown.
