DRIFTWOOD RANCH, ARABIAN HORSES since the 60's and over the years have specialized in the mystic Black Arabians that are mythical and always sought after. We prefer the egyptian bloodlines that combine both the older Babson lines & the newer Egyptian imports. The lines we have stayed with breed true, have wonderful dispositions, are easily trained & destroy all the old myths when people generalize about the Arabian horse. These horses truly like people, they are tough, they are hardy and they are sound. We do believe in the genetic prepotency of Egyptian bred stock.Their breeding consistency has been proven for eons. On our Ranch, we like an athletic horse that is a good all round family horse, that is beautiful and handsome as well. Our horses are well adjusted for our Northern Alberta climates. They are used to seeing & hearing a variety of animals/birds that are either raised here or are part of the wild critters that abound on this Ranch. Therefore they are not easily bothered by unusual sights & sounds. Ideal beginnings for a future trail horse or endurance horse. They have a variety of terrain from dense bush, natural marshlands & bush pastures to provide a wonderful environment for young growing horses.

As well as the purebred Arabian we have always had the wonderful partbred Arabians in Pintos, Palominos and Buckskins. These carry the same Egyptian lines as the purebreds with the bonus of an out cross.

Following is our current information and sales list
