Matisse MVVR
Vaquerro x Pria

We borrowed Vaquerro from Jim and Adrienne Parker of Mckenzie Lake Ranch in the spring and summer of 2019 and our favorite result from his crias was Matisse. His mom, Pria, is a homegrown favorite by our old stud Ruler of Cuzco. 

Matisse was awarded double 1st place and a Reserve Champion at the 2021 Happy Camper Show. We look forward to showing him more in the future. 

Sire: Vaquerro

Vaquerro pictured above at 19 years old!

Matisse's sire Vaquerro is a son of Whist, and a grandson of Dr. Doolittle. We love his look and his pedigree, but even more impressive is his outstanding condition as he has aged. Picture to the left at 19 years old, the only sign of his age is a small dip in his top-line. Vaquerro was bred by Kay Patterson and sold at Walkabout IV to Adrienne Parker. His legendary sire, Whist, was a Hinterland chief herdsire co-owned with Berry Acres Llamas. His dam had some outstanding crias and is a daughter of Dr. Doolittle. We are excited to see Vaquerro's crias in 2020. Vaquerro received his ALSA Halter Championship.
