Falabella AF Dama Quieta
A DIRECT IMPORT FROM ARGENTINA

Sire: AF Ayachucho
Dam: AF Primera Dama

"QUIETA" is a 100% pure, Argentine Falabella, a Black roan, blanketed appaloosa mare. She is a direct import from the Maria Angelica Falabella Farms in Argentina.

Many times the name of the Falabella horse helps to determine their identity. Horses like Dama Quieta, having the name "Falabella" coming first, indicates that this horse was born in Argentina, and was imported directly from the Argentina farm. Then, the "AF" indicates that the horse was owned by (Maria) Angelica Falabella -- daughter of the infamous Julio Falabella. So in Quieta's case, we know she was born at the Argentine Falabella farm, and was owned and imported to the United States by Angelica Falabella.

Quieta has a nice large blanket with black spots. She has continued to age with the appaloosa roaning, and although beginning life as a black roan blanketed mare, she is continuing to roan to almost white with her black spots and points. This "appaloosa roaning" effect is more clearly explained on "THE APPALOOSA PROJECT" website.

Since arriving in the United States, Quieta has traveled across the US at least 4-5 times. She has always been considered a Falabella treasure, and has produced beautiful foals when bred to a variety of Falabella stallions. Quieta is triple registered with the FMHA, and the American registries, and will ultimately be permanently retired at Castle Rock.

Black Pinto, Short Strip, 4 White Stockings

Sire: Falabella AF Empersario
Dam: Falabella AF Sweet Dreams

"GRANADA" is a 100% pure, Argentine Falabella, a Black pinto mare. She is a direct import from the Julio Falabella Farm in Argentina. She was brought to the US by Maria Angelica Falabella for the Falabella Expo in 1998, because of her great beauty and confirmation.

I consider Granada a "GRAND DAM" -- a piece of Falabella history, who proves to the world that the Falabella mares continue to produce well into their 20's. Falabellas have an outstanding record of living a long healthy life and generally are known to live longer than the American Mini counter-part. They are healthy and strong well into the later years and often produce well into their twenties without benefit of AI.

Granada has been both in Canada and the United States, sharing her outstanding offspring with many Falabella breeders who want to take their lines directly to the Argenine farm "close-up".

Tri-color, Buckskin Pinto

Sire: Falabella AF El Grande Bandido
Dam: Falabella AF Dulcinea

"DANIELA" is a 100% pure, Argentine Falabella, a tri-colored, buckskin pinto mare. She is a direct import from the Maria Angelica Falabella Farms in Argentina.

Many times the name of the Falabella horse helps to determine their identity. Horses like Daniela, having the name "Falabella" coming first, indicates that this horse was born in Argentina, and was imported directly from the Argentina farm. Then, the "AF" indicates that the horse was owned by (Maria) Angelica Falabella -- daughter of the infamous Julio Falabella. So in Daniela's case, we know she was born at the Argentine Falabella farm, and was owned and imported to the United States by Maria Angelica Falabella.

Daniela is VERY tiny, and measures 28.00" tall. With her dilute color, we are looking forward to adding her to our program. We are very happy to have her here at Castle Rock.

Sire: Falabella Guille, Imported
Dam: Toyland Charlada

"MISSY" is a 100% pure, Argentine lines Falabella, a bay appaloosa mare--having no distinctive appaloosa patterning, but showing all the appaloosa characteristics of mottling, sclera, striped hooves and roaning. She is a direct daughter of FALABELLA GUILLE, (pronounced Guy) is a 29.75" exceptional Black Leopard Appaloosa IMPORTED as a young stallion from Senor Falabella himself, at the Falabella farm in Argentina. Guille has superior qualities which he passes on to his offspring, first and foremost, being a perfect bite, perfect legs and show type conformation. He has beautiful movement with his head held high and a smooth, gliding trot like artistry in motion. Most important, Guille has 100% Argentine ancestry with totally different ancestors from most other Falabellas in the US.

Missy's dam is a direct daughter of TOYLAND BUTTONEER, a black few spot leopard appaloosa stallion, out of FLABY'S PICANTE with TOYLAND LOLLAPALOOSA, both direct Argentine Falabella imports.

Dam: Hortensia

"GOLDIE" is a 100% Argentine lines Falabella, a black leopard appaloosa mare.

Goldie's sire, PORTENTO, is a black-blanketed appaloosa, with large black spots and was purchased for $25,000 at 3 years of age. Portento is son of GROSSHILL'S COMOFIN, a 29' black leopard appaloosa, purchased for $50,000 by the Grosshill Farm, who traveled to Argentina to choose a stallion, and imported him from Argentina. Portento's dam, LA MESMA, was sold for $25,000 at "THE LIMITED COLLECTION SALE" and was the top selling mare at that Falabella Sale. She was Lot 28, a black mare, foaled in August 13, 1982, and was 31 inches. The mares that were sold at THE LIMITED COLLECTION SALE were chosen due to their high degree of conformation, refinement, movement and overall beauty. La Mesma was no exception.

Goldie's dam, HORTENSIA FALABELLA, was out of two Argentine Falabellas: her sire being CORVILLON and dam, GRASA.

Blessie's dam is Toyland Tiara Mist, a 32.50" solid black mare, who is sired by "WACO" also known as "Toyland Zodiac", an IMPORTED 31" Black Leopard Appaloosa Falabella stallion. Zodiac produced many loud colored appaloosa foals, and proved himself to be a most prolific and valued sire. Sadly he was lost in 2004, but his reputation as one of the TOP Falabella stallions in the US, and in many parts of the world is the heritage left to us.

As a "Toyland" Falabella, who are bred to carry the BLACK gene, we are hoping to assure a higher percentage of intense "base colors" such as Black, Bay and Chestnut, which are highly desirable to us in our "COLOR" breeding program. Blessie is a proven broodmare, having produced an outstanding black appaloosa colt, a beautiful black blanketed filly--lost when it didn't get out of the sack--and a beautiful black appaloosa filly in 2010. We are looking forward to great things with this beautiful Fallabella mare, as part of our Falabella Appaloosa broodmare herd.
