Coastal Equine Information

We are a family operation with the purpose of breeding, training and promoting reining, cutting and working cowhorses. We have long been involved in the horse world, but our focus turned to performance horses when Allison attended Cal Poly State University, San Luis Obispo as an Animal Science Major. Since her graduation in 1999, we have been working to build a program with the vision of providing the industry with top quality performance horses. Now located in Ferndale, we invite any of you to drop on by, or plan a trip to visit the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Emmitt and Mary, still reside in Anchor Point, Alaska where they own and operate Coastal Realty in addition to being active participants in ranch affairs here in Washington State. In addition to showing, Allison serves on the Executive Board of the NWRCHA, is the NRCHA Non Pro Representative for the Northwest Region and writes a monthly column for the Northwest Horse Source titled "On The Plus Side." This has been a successful year so far with Allison and Smokums Playlena were NRCHA Reserve National Champions in the Non Pro Bridle. She also was the NRCHA Northwest Region Limited Open Bridle and Non Pro Bridle Champion. The team was also the NWRCHA Open Bridle, Lmtd Open Bridle, Non Pro Bridle and Amateur Cutting Champion. In addition to the training at our facility, we have horses out with many successful Northwest trainers. Kurt Pylman of Redmond OR will be showing Cue Bars Laddie this season in Cowhorse, Reining and Roping events. Jim Spence of Yamhill, OR will be showing Prizeinmypocket in NRCHA aged events, and Mike Helsen of Auburn, WA is starting Cow Lucky Can We Be, one of Cow Cuttin Colonel's first offspring. So, if you are looking for a beginner horse, a futurity prospect or to breed to a great stallion, this is one stop shopping folks! The 2006 foal crop has proven to be one of our best yet!
