Perfection’s Copper Top B (Dusty) was born June 15, 2006 and was a poor unwanted baby.  The mare didn’t want anything to do with him.  So for 3 days we had to make sure he nursed every 2 hours.  Then we switched him on to a substitute old mare that had his 6 week old ½ brother.  The mare claimed him and raised both colts with no problem.  I knew from the 1^st moment I saw Dusty we were going to do everything possible to save him. With each passing day he kept getting better and better and better. 

Then on July 4, 2007 we put him in the hands of Johnnie Miller of Valley Springs Foxtrotters. When we unloaded Dusty from our trailer at Valley Springs there were some visitors there that saw him come out of the trailer and said “Man that horse looks like he needs to be in a magazine”. Johnnie said “That is exactly what we are going to try and do.”

Dusty will be bred to a few select mares in the future before we stand him at public stud. We also want to continue showing him before we start breeding him too heavily. Special thanks to Johnnie Miller and his wife, Diane, and to George and JoAnn Becker of Valley Springs Foxtrotters.
