| Andaluz de Arion About Us |
Nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in
West-Central Pennsylvania, Andaluz de Arion is located
in the heart of Amish country. In this rural community,
horses are still a way of life. Horses and buggies travel
these roads on a daily basis and life moves a little more
slowly than it does in the outside world.
In this idyllic environment for horses and people, Arion is
dedicated to producing just a few very fine Spanish
Andalusian Horses. Our breeding program is based on
the stallion, Cresswood Eytano (Cresswood Traveler x
Banbury Evita), bred by Lucy Cress of Cresswood
Stables from pure Banbury stock.
Our goal is to produce a few superb modern dressage
Andalusians without losing the old Baroque type or
gaining excessive size. The Capitan XIII/Leviton nick,
combined with 2 crossings to Temerario V, sire of USDF
champion Temerario VII, on the distaff side, is producing
stunning movement for the modern dressage competition
without losing the "classical" horse, close coupled, athletic,
proud, and of a most tractable temperament.
We are dedicated to preserving in small part the Baroque
Spanish Horse, the horse deemed "the lovingest and
gentlest horse and fitingest of all for a King to ride in a
day of triumph" (Duke of Newcastle 1667).
