DOES IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS?
It took my breath away to be able to purchase this boy, and give him his "forever" home at Castle Rock. His sire is non-other than JOHNSTONS GOLD BOY. His dam, JOHNSTON'S SILVER, is the dam of WITTMAACKS MICKEY MOUSE, and is FULL SISTER to ROAN RANGER. THIS GOLD MELODY BOY LINE IS THE FACTORY WHERE THE BUCKEROO LINE HAD ITS BEGINNINGS.
It took my breath away to be able to purchase this boy, and give him his "forever" home at Castle Rock. His sire was non-other than JOHNSTONS GOLD BOY, one of 2 remaining sons and the smallest foal ever sired by the Legendary FOUNDATION STALLION: GOLD MELODY BOY. His dam, JOHNSTON'S SILVER, is the dam of WITTMAACKS MICKEY MOUSE, and is FULL SISTER to ROAN RANGER. THIS GOLD MELODY BOY LINE IS THE FACTORY WHERE THE BUCKEROO LINE HAD ITS BEGINNINGS.
There are only 2 surviving JOHNSTONS GOLD BOY stallions that carry 50% of the Gold Melody Boy bloodlines. SILVERADO IS ONE! Tompkins PacMan, full brother to Silverado, is the other. Tompkins PacMan was recently acquired and is standing at Lucky Star Miniatures, his permanent retirement home.
It is truly a sad day when you realize that all of the Gold Melody Boy Sons are gone. These were the great ones that started it all, the ones who have brought so many of us together, and the ones whose legacy we will try to continue. To all the Gold Melody Boy breeders: It is not the end, but rather the beginning of what we can do to continue the Gold Melody Boy tradition. May GMB live on in each and every one of us.
Rest in Peace...
