The end of an era at Longman Miniatures....

[alongman]

We are sad to post that today, we lost our stallion Jandt's Our Champion. Champ was a son of Boone's Little Andy and had produced several of our National Champions and National Champion producing mares. Champ lived to the age of 27 years of age and spent his last days at the farm in the near company of his four-legged and two-legged family. This amazing stallion helped direct the breeding program of our herd and the Andy line has been the influence of many renowned breeding programs.

If anyone has any progeny of Champ, we would love to see pictures and hear stories about them. Also, we are interested in keeping the Champ line strong in our program and would love to hear about quality animals as they become available. Please contact me directly.

Jandt's Our Champion:

Some of Champs progeny at Longman Miniatures:

Longman's Shadow Spencer - Champ great-grandson

Jandt's Petite N Pretty - Champ granddaughter

Longman's Champ Cicily - Champ daughter

So sorry to hear this Adam. He is a piece of history and how humbled you must be to have had him with you for so long. He certainly lived up to his name. Hugs to you my friend

Such a huge loss, but what a legacy he has left. My hope is that you will continue to strengthen his line and his offspring will continue to add to the miniature breed.

My thoughts are with you.

Thank you all for your kind words. Champ truly was a legacy in the miniature horse world as so many of the Andy sons have been. Our plan is to keep breeding the Andy line, so we are pleading that if you have a Champ offspring, you contact us. We would love to keep his legacy and our dream alive through his offspring.
