With a vision of producing top quality ranch horses and ranch teams in 2001 we purchased what is now Rafter V Ranch.
Today along with our three young sons, Wylie, Hayes and Tate, we are striving to reach that goal while building a quality broodmare band of Registered Quarter Horses and Percherons and standing studs with superb disposition and looks.

Our Quarter Horse program focuses on producing foals
that carry the pedigree of top cutting and cowhorses while not
compromising the size, conformation and disposition
required of a versatile ranch horse. Our goal to produce a ranch horse with the athletic ability of a performance horse is an on going process of finding the "magic cross".
We are excited about our young stallion RVR Cowboon, whose
pedigree includes the names of several cutting horse greats.
With the purchase of this stallion, we feel that the future of the ranch's quarter horse program is very promising.
Our love for the gentle nature of the Percheron has seen our draft mare numbers increase over the years. Our desire to raise and market quality ranch teams that everyone can enjoy involves our whole family and is something that takes us back to simpler times.
With two superb stallions now standing at the ranch, we are excited to offer show-quality prospects, as well as started and finished teams.
Our second passion is for the canine creatures that greet you at our front gate. While raising working Border Collies we stumbled across the rare and wonderful small version of the Beagle known as the "Pocket Beagle". Producing and offering these two breeds as working ranch and companion dogs allows us to share even more of our love for animals with you.
We hope you enjoy your time spent at our "home on the web" and would be blessed to have you stop in if you are in our area.
