Ollie's Brother And Sister

Every time I research something about my beautiful, hunky gelding I find something else fascinating about him. Last night I was researching his father, when I came across his half brother who was recently sold on horse clicks:

"Additional Comments:
Registered Appaloosa Gelding
WWR King Of Hearts # 655172
Sire: Heart Of Dixie # 541108 (Ollie's dad and dad's family)
Grand Sire: Prince 4 Sure # 440233
Grand Dam: Dixie Freeze # 479628
Dam: Pattern of Plaudit # 415737
Grand Sire: Plaudit's Pattern # T286681
Grand Dam: Plaudits Wavy T139651

Raised king since he was a foal, no bad habits, easy to catch, loads well , halters, stands for farrier..Selling him because of my health. I want someone who will take him to his limit, to finish training him out. He has been rode on numerous trail rides. King, has been ridden with a snaffle bit and does great. He loves attention. King loves to keep the baby calves away from their mothers , he thinks their his herd. He will make a awesome roping horse, or reining, cutting he has it in him. Our neighbor girl has been riding him for the past 2 years and does lots of trail rides as well she has shown him at the Crawford County Fair and has won ribbons with him. King is about 15.1 and weighs about 950 lbs ......Gelded 4-3-2010"

I thought that it was super cool that I had found his half brother, but I was even happier when I found his half-sister, who was just sold in Texas. 



WWH OUTRAGEOUS DIXIE

Look at that color!! Once again, same dad (Heart Of Dixie), different mother. I also found some of Ollie's old show records of him as a foal, and he and WWH Outrageous Dixie actually competed against each other! Plus, there was even a for sale video of her!!! 




Oh, and here is Ollie's dad:


And a picture of Ollie as a baby (Yes, he has roaned out that much)!:
