Sire

2005 AQHA “Zipoff”, affectionately known as “Zip” Stands at Valhalla Farms in Madison, Georgia. He is one of the last remaining sons of the great 1969 “Zippo Pine Bar”, son of Zippo Pat Bars out of Dollie Pine, a daughter of Poco Pine. ‘Zippo Pine Bar’, an AQHA Hall of Fame Inductee, was one of the most prolific pleasure horse sires in history, sitting atop the leading sires list for more than a decade. He sired 1648 AQHA foals, 68 Appaloosas, & 72 Paints which collectively earned over 50,000 show points.

Career & Offspring

“Zip” was born in Florida in 1995 and later lived in both Tennessee and Kentucky; before coming to Georgia, to his forever home in 2013.

He came 3rd in the PHBA World Open Sr Western Pleasure and has 61 open palomino western pleasure points to his name.

During his career, he has sired multiple point earners and a 2013 Palomino World Champion pleasure mare.

More recently, he has been a great producer for his owner, Inge Wendling of Valhalla Farms and Southern Cross Guest Ranch in Madison, Georgia.

If you want to breed to the best bloodlines for western pleasure you can’t pass him up. He has a gorgeous head and that classic Zippo body. Great attitude and manners for a stallion and he passes that down to his foals. LFG(Standing/Nursing). 5 Panel: Herda: N/N, HYPP: N/N, GBED: N/G, MH: N/N PSSM1: N/N, OWLS N/N
