Our philosophy

Our aim is to breed Stock Horses that the whole family can ride and enjoy.  We believe that temperament is above all else, the most important factor in breeding.  Combining our "type" criteria means Doondi Stock Horses must be able to do the job at home first and foremost. Success on a practical level, follows through into the performance fields of Campdrafting, Polo, Polocrosse, Showing, Dressage, One-day eventing and other horse sports.

Doondi Santa Gertrudis stud number 1923 was started after we moved to Lynoch in 1997. The stud is based mainly on Yarrawonga, Big Sur, Marston, Quandilla bloodlines. Our herd is relatively young, the core of its development focus is a breeding objective aimed at meeting the needs of commercial cattleman. Temperament, fertility, structural soundness and versatility are the cornerstones of our breeding goals

Good working dogs are essential in our minds, they make the day and the task enjoyable and are an integral part of our daily life.  Our breeding program is based on providing us with good, strong dogs that have natural desire and obedience. The fourth litter of Doondi puppies are now on the ground and at this early stage are showing promise through their eye and cast around the children in the garden!
