Sweetwater Farms

Since 1979 at Sweetwater Farms we have continued to strive to breed for Quality Appaloosas with correct, well balanced conformation, fluid, natural movement, and now using today's technology, foals free of genetic defects- especially HYPP, which can be lethal if passed on to foals & left untreated.

We feel this is a must for the Sweetwater horses, since our vision is to breed Appaloosa show horses so they are more destined to stay sound, healthy, productive & happy in their respective show careers, or jobs-for the long haul. We believe healthy, sound horses should not have short expiration dates, and would rather see a horse expand the events its competitive at, before being quit on after only trying or even winning at one event.

Our vision remains that of breeding Appaloosa horses destined to stay sound, healthy, productive & happy in their respective show careers, or jobs-for the long haul. We believe healthy, sound Appaloosa horses should not have short expiration dates-and would rather see a horse expand the events it is competitive at, as opposed to being quit on after only trying, or even winning, in one event.

To us, breeding for foals with correct conformation and soundness cannot be overestimated. A sound horse makes a happier horse, and sound, happy horses make happy owners.

Dare to be different. Be Versatile & Stand out on a horse bred to be spotted-the Appaloosa!
