Reference Sire: Hi Tech Cowboy

Appaloosa Stallion at Stud in Ohio

2001- 2008 In July 2008, we lost our beloved stallion Hi Tech Cowboy
due to complications from an enterolith and the resulting rupture.

Rarely in life is one afforded the opportunity to live their dreams. Amy and I felt like we were granted just such a wish, when we were officially declared the high bidders for the vivid black and white leopard stallion Hi Tech Cowboy at the 2005 Worlds Sale.

Little did we know just how much of an impact that this amazing young horse would have on us, our lives, and how he would expand our circle of friends. At shows and expos, Hi Tech was a real showstopper and attention grabber. Folks would flock to his stall, or stop what they were doing, to stare and offer us acknowledgement and encouragement as we walked by.

We quickly knew we were truly blessed and honored to process this gentle and prolific ambassador of “The Breed of Choice�.

Unfortunately, this wonderful fantasy-like scenario ended as quickly as it started. Within a few short hours of displaying distress, the very accomplished doctors at The Ohio State University Veterinary Hospital had no option but to euthanize our beloved boy, due to complications from an enterolith and the resulting rupture.

It is so understated to call it one of the worst days of Amy’s and my life. Not a day has gone by that we haven’t missed the “Big Boy�. His special antics, his knickers and his constant yelling at the girls are so noticeably absent.

Our dream lives on, and so will Hi Tech Cowboy’s legacy, making next year’s foal crop all that more special.

We wish to thank each and everyone who took the time to speak well of this amazing stallion, as well as those of you who entrusted your faith in his abilities by breeding to him through the short number of years we were all graced with his presence.
