Welcome to Pretty Quarter Horses!
We are a small Quarter Horse farm located in the beautiful St. Croix River Valley. Our farm is situated on 20 acres in Osceola, Wisconsin.
Our goal is to focus on reining, cutting, working cowhorse and a little roping bred horses. The majority of our horses range from anywhere to 90 to 96 percent Foundation Quarter Horse, and many are registered with the Foundation Quarter Horse Association (FQHA).
Our stallion, PQH Pretty Boy, is a beautiful homozygous black, grulla Quarter Horse. PQH Pretty Boy is bred to work and perform. He is sired by Holidoc, earner of $120,054 ($93,139.90 NCHA) and he has his NCHA COA. Pretty Boy's dam, a granddaughter of Leo San, was shown in open shows, and is a money earner in team sorting. Pretty Boy has been in training with professional cutting trainer, J P Bell of Duluth, Minnesota since February 2009. J P is a NCHA AAA Judge, has NCHA Lifetime Earnings of over $270,000, as well as NCHA Bronze and Silver awards. Pretty Boy will begin showing at NCHA shows in 2010 with JP Bell riding!
Our mares have correct conformation, good bone, solid builds, and willing personalities. Any young mares that we raise, we have started under saddle and trail ridden. Although our mares have never been shown, they do not lack the quality we look for in producing quality foals!
Foals that we raise are bred for reining, cutting, working cowhorse, roping, and all around ranch and trail horses. We feel like we have the right match between our mare's and stallion's to produce foals that you can enjoy out in the pasture, ride down the trail, or take into the show ring.
Enjoy your tour, and thank you for visiting Pretty Quarter Horses.

A Little About The Care We Give Our Horses:
- VETERINARY: Our regular veterinarian, Krishawn Kaibel DVM, lives about 20 miles from us. We also have access to 3 large veterinary facilities (Anoka Equine, Stillwater Equine, and the University of Minnesota), each an hour and a half or less from our farm. All of our breeding is done on the farm by Krishawn. Any routine or emergency visits that can be done on the farm are by Krishawn, and big emergencies are taken to one of the larger facilities.
- VACCINATIONS: Our horses are vaccinated every spring (foals are done in the fall) with EWE (Eastern Western Encephalitis), Tetnus, Rabies, and West Nile Virus.
- FARRIER: Douglas Young is our farrier. Our horses hooves are trimmed regularly, generally every 6-8 weeks over the warmer months and 8-12 weeks over the colder months.
- DE-WORMING: Our horses are also on a regular de-worming schedule. The adults are on daily pelleted de-wormer and paste de-wormed regularly. The foals are paste de-wormed every 4 weeks (alternating between Ivermectin, Strongid, and Safeguard) until they are weaned, at which time they are put on the same schedule/routine as the other horses.
- FEED/ETC: Our horses are fed Purina Mills Strategy twice a day, and grass hay three times a day. The horses also have free access to a white salt block and fresh clean water at all times. Pregnant and lactating mares are also given Farnam's Mare Plus.
