Rebel is smart, talented, and easy to train. Several videos are below, and more will be added regularly.

He is growing up strong and is built to last. He is the 1st progeny of Bob Hes Quick and his dam, but she and Cats Royal Boon have made several stellar performance horses that are now in Georgia and Texas. We expect nothing less from him.

Docs Firey Gypsy Sky (dam) was born and raised on our ranch, and her bloodlines go back to Doc O’ Lena, Ranch Colonel, Sky High Leo, and Flying X Six - both from Kreb’s Quarter Horses of Scott City, KS - shown by Bozo Rogers.   She has PE in cow horse, AQHA VRH, Heading, & Heeling. Sale prices of her Cats Royal Boon progeny - 2017 G - sold at 6 for $35,000; 2019 M - sold at 4 for $22,500; 2021 M - sold at 3 for $35,000; 2022 M - sold at 2 (with 10 rides, plain sorrel) for $11,000.

Rebel has been started in our colt-starting program, benefiting from Jason’s 35 years of experience and love of the RCH event. He has great ground manners, ties, and bathes and stands for the farrier.

He is very flashy, sure to catch the judge’s eye!

Rebel has quick feet, will have a ton of cow, beautiful stops, and clean, easy lead changes with pretty circles. In the right hands, he will make an OPEN-LEVEL FUTURITY REINED COW HORSE, a national-level versatility/stock horse or futurity rope horse, and more!

More Details:

• Important to mention that Jason Perry is 6’2” with a 39” inseam for all riding videos.

• Raised and trained by a professional and nationally respected colt starter & RCH/VRH trainer.

• Dental with wolf tooth extraction done 2/19/2025.

• 2025 Spring Vaccinations (Merck's Prestige 5 + West Nile) and Deworming (Equimax) done 3/10/2025.

• Jason’s colt starting program is based on 35 years and 10,000 colt starts. He uses his initial groundwork to strengthen bodies and minds for the journey before them. The goal is to set up a fruitful performance future with an easy-to-train, trusting, sound, talented horse. This takes however long it takes before riding is started. Each horse is an individual.

• Videos below are in REVERSE date order. His first 3 rides (at the bottom of the page) were done three consecutive days 12/13 to 12/15. This is a modified version of an old technique Jason learned from Ray Hunt. It may look like chaos to those who don’t know the nuances of colt starting, but it is an excellent way to get them ridden in short rides, get good progress in a low-stress environment, and get them out of the round pen quicker. We use the round pen as needed, but this method is a great way to get them out and allow them to stretch their legs and move.

• He has a great set of manners and has been exposed to farm machinery, dogs, cattle/buffalo, horse walkers, etc.

• Been on BUCKEYE Nutrition’s feed program since weaning to encourage steady skeletal and muscle growth to promote performance and longevity.

• Always had proper foot care, timely vaccinations & deworming etc.

• Has the mind and talent to be an Open or NP-level RCH, VRH, or any Western event.

• He is welcome to stay in our training program for as long as the new owner wishes. As a buyer incentive, we offer a training discount of $250 off each month for the first six months of training.

Our unique 40-year breeding program offers buyers many benefits:

• We are a small, hands-on operation, so we know our horses as well as anyone can. We’ve known the horses that were born here since the moment they were born. Both sire and dam of this prospect live on our ranch. In fact, many of our broodmares were born and raised here, too. Or purchased when they were very young, then trained by Jason and had show careers before becoming broodmares. Our stallions were all purchased as youngsters, trained, and shown here. Learn more about our breeding program.

• An equine nutritionist, PhD, designed our feed program. This filly has been on BUCKEYE Nutrition’s feed program all along.

• We aren’t new to what makes a truly enjoyable performance horse. They need certain qualities and attributes, starting with trainable minds and high-level talent. Correct conformation, great bone and feet, pretty reining maneuvers, and a strong drive to work cattle are all important. We created this baseline for ourselves as breeders and work hard each year to improve them.
