We are pleased to add Circle C Obsession to our lineup of breeding jacks. He is arguably one of the best jacks to ever come out of the renowned Circle C breeding program. He is black, with heavy bone and a wide, well balanced, smooth body. His mother was the spectacular Circle C Coco Chanel, and his father is S.S. Red Lightning, so he has sired both deep red and black foals. He stamps them with his gorgeous head, show presence, and smooth, fluid movement.

Jock is a very stocky 30" Red-Brown Roan Jack that we purchased from Braying Hills in 2007. Thanks you Max and Dee Keithley for allowing us to purchase this exceptional jack. He has heavy bone, a great big rump, and is stocky with an athletic body, while posessing a short, balanced head. His pedigree includes Inspector Clouseau, The Fireman, McRoberts Game Farm, and goes back to some of the origional imported donkeys. We are excited about the outcross of his bloodlines, and short stocky body with our champion jennets.
