When I was at Stonebridge Farm in MN bringing home Baci, this little black RMH with the softest eyes ran right over and whispered in my ear "Don't forget about me...". I didn't and he came home 6 months later.

True to the Rocky breed, Blackberry was "born broke". He takes to new experiences and situations very easily, is very trusting and has come a long way in the training I've done with him. I stood in his sire's stall at Stonebridge Farm when that stallion came running in from the paddock and he greeted me with the personality of a Golden Retriever. Highly unusual for a stallion to greet a stranger in such a way!

At any rate, Toco's Legacy Man passed that awesome temperament to his son along with the beauty and brains he inherited from his dam and let's not forget about the hard work of Blackberry's breeder Tamara Callstrom who provided such a great environment for him. She is a truly gifted horsewoman, she and her husband Dan are exceptional people.

Blackberry is growing into a handsome boy and everybody that sees him calls him Black Beauty. I couldn't agree more.

Spring/summer of 2011 is the target for getting on his back based on the progress he has shown me so far, but he'll tell me when he's ready.
