Laughing Dog Ranch
At her Laughing Dog Ranch in Ojai, California, Mary Anne Morrison breeds purebred Arabians and Arabian crosses (many of them half Welsh pony), with children and amateurs in mind. The fruits of her labor include her 2019 USEF Leading Breeder of Half-Arabians award, along with countless Sport Horse Championships, open Hunter/Jumper and dressage winners, as well as main ring Arabian titles.
Mary Anne's Welsh Pony stallion, GOLDHILLS LOVE THE BLUES (Gayfields Call The Cops x Gayfields Love Potion No. 9), has sired athletes in both over fences and dressage ponies,” says Mary Anne. "People are not buying show halter ponies, they want steady temperament, movement to die for and sensitivity. Each foal I bring into the world is imprinted and exposed to many, many things. We expect them to be good citizens from birth. We send them out into the world to bring joy to their new owners, which is really what it’s all about. We are committed to the careful breeding of exquisite sport horses and sport ponies since 2007, and we are focused on producing National quality amateur friendly, athletic and a safe equine partners for the competitive rider, from short stirrup to show jumping."
