Elkhorn Ranch is eight acres and the Brittains lease another 100 acres for pasture and training. They are building a new barn this Spring with about six stalls. They've been breeding horses here for about 5 years. It'll all be paid for soon and the horses have paid for this place. The Paint horse market will be strong for at least the next 20 years.
Color is a popular trend in many breeds.
Portland State University Spotted Horse Research Group has contributed much to the understanding of the Tobiano Spotted Horses. Budd has studied Paint horse genetics and he is a noted authority on the subject. He gets calls from all over the country from people looking for information on Paint genetics. They also hold free Paint clinics open to anyone who is interested. Their stallion, Prescription Medic, is a descendent of the famous champion Doc Bar.
