We call this pair "mom and mini-me". Barnabus is in many of
the pedigrees of our Foundation Female Herd for a very good reason. He's
the gold standard for fineness, uniformity, conformation correctness and
a beautiful head. His bloodlines are rare & unique. His grandsire, the
legendary, Accoyo Augusto was bred to an imported Allianza dam to produce Maple
Brook Wellington, and Wellington was matched with an imported Accoyo dam
to produce Barnabus. 1st & Reserve Champion ’20 Bluebonnet Show & 1st
