GLR Ranch is a 32 1/2 well thought out equine facility. I had a dream ever since I was little and made it happen with the help of my parents and hard work. I found this place and it had nothing on it which allowed me to be creative and put things where I wanted them. This place is an equine mini paradise located in the heart of Texas. I have 9 pastures of various sizes all with adequate shelter. Beautiful rich coastal and native grasses and trees. I designed a barn home that has 5 over sized stalls, one which is a octagon shaped 20X20 foaling stall that was incorporated in the house with wrap around windows for viewing from 5 different rooms. It is equipped with a climate controlled feed room, tack room, wash rack, stocks and most importantly a 100 foot alley way that is 15 to 25 feet wide that has rubber pavers for the comfort of the animal and me! If that wasn't enough it is attached to my dream home! The place also has a round pen and an arena for training and riding. Also for fun it has a 2 acre tank that is full of catfish and perch along with some colorful koi.

I have always been an equine enthusiast and started taking lessons when I was 7 years old. From there I got my first horse when I was 8 and still have him today at the age of 27 (27 in 2010). I have shown since I was 8 and even started showing mules when I was 9 and fell in love with them. I have always trained my own animals and enjoy teaching others that really want to learn. I have had everything from half arab, mules, apps, paints, belgians, thoroughbreds all the way to miniature donkeys which now is my main focus and love!

I still enjoy racing thoroughbreds and breeding mares and having foals and raising and training them BUT the mini donkeys are truly special in every way. They are very intelligent which test your training skills, which makes it that much better when you achieve them and they are the most loving of them all.

I will constantly be building a herd and buying and selling minis to get the results that I want. It takes patience and knowledge to achieve this; I think my horse background and being around mules my whole life will only help. I have already seen great results in the show ring and am that much more addicted!

The long-term goal is to breed quality over quantity and to really pay attention to correct conformation that only insures a healthier longer life with better way of moving towards performance. Also a good disposition is a must.
