Spring Valley Ranch has prided itself with standing and offering stallions throughout the years who were individuals who would perpetuate and maintain a quality in the industry. Today, we continue to strive for this in our program. We have chosen our stallion with a pedigree which has a reputable, proven background. We evaluate conformation and attitude as assets that sell through their offspring. It is in selective breeding for attributes that we hope to offer offspring that will meet the needs of others whom are looking for sensible, versatile stock ready for a trail ride, show pen or chasing a cow. |

Krogs Fiddle Cat
"Grit" is a 2014, 14.3 hand AQHA Red Roan stallion who is now at the heart of our breeding program here at the ranch. He is sired by Can't Kick This Cat who is an own son of High Brow Cat; he also has Dual Pep & Smart Little Lena. His dam, Fiddlin Jill Pine, is a granddaughter of Paprika Pine and goes back to Baron Bell. He has been 5 panel tested and is N/N across the board. In 2019 he produced 2 money earners in the inaugural IQHA Ranch Horse Stallion Breeders Futurity. Again in 2020 Grit babies knock it out of the park with a 2nd place out of 45 entries in the yearling in hand trail course and a 3rd place in the 2 year old non-pro trail class.
In February 2020 he began his refresher course work at West Fork Ranch where he has been observed to be a quick study and good minded. His offspring have exhibited much of the same qualities as the sire as we have began to get offspring into new owner hands and work with ones ourselves.
In 2021 we have seen his offspring take to a variety of jobs (ranch work, trail, rodeo arena and roping). Versatile and intelligent, offspring have shown their capacity to do a lot of different work.
