Breeding Information
Our horses may not be used as the sire/dam of your model without written permission from us. Please do not use our photos or pedigree assignments without permission. To request a breeding, please send the following information to
pookaa01@comcast.net
:
Foal's Name
Year Foaled
Color

Gender
Model/Mold Info (or BSO)
Desired Sire
Desired Dam
Your Name
Email Address
Farm Name/Location
Other Parents ~ If both parents are not owned by Caballos Del Mar, please include the same detailed information on the other parent including a 3+ generation pedigree if available. If you do not own the other parent, we will assume that you have permission to use that horse as a parent of your foal. The breeder of record will be the mare's owner.
Aging ~ All of our horses are aging. Each horse's page will show the years they are available. If you prefer to have a non-aging foal, we will allow that, but will assign an available year for your foal.
Equine Color Genetics ~ Please follow appropriate equine color genetics. There are many excellent online resources available now, including Daralyn Wallace's page and Equine Color.com. If you have any questions, just ask.
Breed Naming Rules and Requirements ~ Certain real horse breeds/registries have specific naming requirements or name length restrictions. Please follow these rules when selecting names for your models. You may find a copy of naming rules at the IPABRA website.
Pedigrees ~ Model horses are shown in bold text. Real horses are denoted with an "®" symbol after their names. Clicking on the name or photo of a model on the list will take you to that horse's individual pedigree page. Some pedigrees have links to reference breeding stock - if you have an interest in using some of our older reference stock, please let us know.
Fees ~ We are happy to arrange e-mail breedings for free. We will e-mail you an MS Word breeding certificate if you would like, or you may find the parent's information on their individual pages. If you would like us to print the breeding certficates, there is a 10¢ charge per model - please send a large SASE for return of the certficates.
The Models ~ This is a work in progress and even though we have a modest selection of horses available, we still have loads of models yet to be added. So check back from time to time - we'll note new additions to the list when they appear.
HISTORY
After a move to the east coast and a hiatus of about twenty years, Caballos Del Mar is back into model horses. During that time, a dispersal sale reduced the herd from close to 1,500 to a more manageable 300 or so. All but fourteen of our original finish Breyers were sold, as were nearly all of our customized/repainted horses.
A few years ago, Cory Hartung was kind enough to provide us with a copy of our old sire/dam list as well as the pedigrees we created for her horses (those of you that use Cory’s sires and dams may have some of our horses in their pedigrees). Using this list as a starting point, as well as our original pedigree research papers, we began to reconstruct the pedigrees for the breeding stock that we once had, using those original horses as sires and dams for the models that we kept. Most of the models that remained in the collection have been bred forward from their original namesakes. As you will see, nearly all of the horses on the list are original finish Hagen-Renakers, Beswicks, and limited edition runs and the few customized horses are done by Sarah Minkiewicz, Laurie Jensen, or me.
Some of the original breeding stock pedigrees have had to be altered – while all of the real horse bloodlines included in the past were painstakingly researched (pre-Internet, using actual stud books and magazines, and many hours in the W.K. Kellogg Arabian Horse Library at Cal Poly, Pomona), the information now available has dictated some corrections. Many of our original horses had model-bred pedigrees and in those cases, we have not gone back to modify the breeding, unless there were blatant real-horse errors somewhere in the pedigree.
The current list includes only the models that we now own. Clicking on the name or photo will take you to that horse's individual page showing their full pedigree, larger photo and years available for breeding. Some pedigrees have links to reference breeding stock - if you have an interest in using some of our older reference stock, please let us know. We have tracked which years the horses are available, so you have the ability to fill in older pedigrees with models horses foaled in the 1960s, 70s and 80s.
