SOLD - Tyler of Friesian Stable

Tyler of Friesian Stable

Tyler is a stud colt born 6/2/06 out of Teade 392 and our studbook mare Tekla W, (dam’s sire Erik 351). He has the same characteristics in the head as his sire and grand sire (Anton 343, who's known for his hair!) He has long legs and already knows how to use them. His mother's extremely mild disposition inspires him to be calm and gentle. Teade is the most popular Friesian in the country and is competing at 3rd level with scores in the 70's. Tyler would make a great prospect for dressage.

Tyler's friendly and loving around adults and kids. He enjoys playing in the pastures with the other horses and dogs. He also likes to watch us drive the machinery around the farm. Tyler has some of the same inquisitive nature and intelligence as Reagan.

Congratulations to Lizann from Oregon on your purchase of Tyler!

Her movement is graceful and floating, which is a traditional Friesian trait. Abby's sire, Anton 343 passes along his classic Friesian look, abundant hair and athleticisms.
