WELCOME TO DOUBLE DIAMOND T FOXTROTTERS… …Owned by LeRoy and Sharon Tipton. They raise their gaited Missouri Foxtrotting horses along the Wishkah River in the Wishkah Valley north of Aberdeen, near Washington's coast. Missouri Foxtrotters are America's favorite trail horse and are noted for their swift, gentle ride on all types of trails and for their versatility, gentle disposition, and beauty. In addition to their popularity as sure footed trail horses, “Foxtrotters” are successfully used in endurance, ranch work, gaming, shooting competition, packing, and driving. From the time they first rode a Missouri Foxtrotter on the Friesen ranch in Southern Oregon, in 1987, Sharon and LeRoy knew when they once again owned horses it would have to be the beautiful, easy going, gentle, smooth riding, Foxtrotter. They realized their dream 9 years later when they began to raise this outstanding breed. When asked why he likes the Foxtrotter over all other breeds, LeRoy is not content to cite only its smooth, easy, swift gait, as desirable as that is. He has to include, as well, its beautiful form, intelligence, and sweet disposition as reasons that make this breed his top choice. Visitors are always welcome at the Double Diamond T by appointment. |

Double Diamond T Foxtrotters’
This girl, like her grandmother, mom, half- brother Eagle, and half-sister Stormy absolutely loves people. She has a real dilemma whether to go out to the pasture with the other horses or stay at the barn for love and attention. (She eventually chooses the pasture – after we go to the house.)
Sunshine loads effortlessly and stands quietly for the farrier. She is
trimmed for barefoot riding.
She was
started as a 4-year old and is professionally trained and ready to take you
on the trail or to the show tomorrow. Sunshine knows to move off the leg.
This beautiful horse comes when called and takes her place in the barn when
told. |
