At Sunrise Ranching Company, our broodmare program is the foundation of everything we produce. Located in Alberta, Canada, we are committed to raising functional, dependable AQHA horses that are built for real-world ranch conditions and long-term soundness.

Our mares are selected with intention. We focus on structure, disposition, durability, and maternal ability, ensuring every broodmare contributes positively to the next generation. These are horses meant to live outside, move freely across pasture and range, and raise quality foals without excessive management.

Purpose-Bred Ranch Broodmares

Our broodmares are not chosen for trends or hype — they are chosen for usefulness and longevity. Each mare in our program has proven herself through soundness, temperament, and consistency. We prioritize:

• Strong bone and correct conformation

• Athletic, efficient movement

• Calm, willing dispositions

• Excellent mothering instincts

By allowing our mares to live and move naturally, they develop the strength,

balance, and mental toughness required of true ranch horses.

Raised the Ranch Way

Our horses are range-raised in Alberta, developing naturally through exposure to open pasture, varied terrain, and daily movement. This style of management promotes strong feet, good muscle development, and durability that carries through to their foals.

We believe that horses raised in real ranch environments are better prepared for a wide variety of disciplines, whether that’s ranch work, performance events, or all-around use.

AQHA Registered & Ranch Proven

All of our horses are registered with the American Quarter Horse Association (AQHA). Our broodmares represent a blend of proven Quarter Horse bloodlines and practical ranch functionality, offering both pedigree value and real-world capability.

Their foals are well-suited for:

• Ranch and stock work

• Performance and versatility disciplines

• Long-term soundness and usability

• Owners who value substance over flash

A Program Built on Consistency

We believe great horses start with great mares. Our broodmare program is intentionally managed to remain consistent, honest, and sustainable, producing horses that are useful, trainable, and built to last.

Every mare in our gallery represents the standards we hold ourselves to — sturdy, reliable, and purpose-bred for the ranching lifestyle and beyond.
