Wagonhound Land & Livestock’s roots go back to the late 1800s when the cattle drives
came up from Texas and the pioneers traveled through on the Oregon Trail. The original
Wagonhound Land & Livestock is now part of and represents the entire ranching
operation in Douglas, Wyo. Located along Wyoming’s Laramie Range, the east edge of
the Rocky Mountains, the ranch consists of more than 150,000 mostly private acres with
an elevation varying from
5,000 to 9,000 feet. The
diverse, scenic ranch runs
a commercial Red Angus
herd of mother cows and
summer stocker cattle,
operates two feedlots,
harvest 4,000 acres of
alfalfa hay, and offers
elite outfitted hunts
specializing in trophy elk.
The objective of
Wagonhound’s horse
breeding program,
consisting of more than
200 American Quarter
Horses, is to raise high-
quality ranch horses
for both ranch use and that of the public. The strong, well-proven pedigrees within the
breeding program not only support this goal, but also routinely produce horses with the
ability and talent to compete successfully in the most prestigious cutting, reining, reined
cow horse, and ranch competitions.
Wagonhound’s broodmare band is anchored by some of the most famous mares in the
industry, such as all-time leading reined cow horse producer Kings Masterpiece, who
was an AQHA World Show Junior Cutting Top Five winner; Little Tenina, NCHA Open
Futurity, Derby, Classic, and World Finals Champion; A Smart Little Gal, NCHA World
Champion producer; and Tassa Mia, an all-time leading cutting producer and dam of an
NCHA Super Stakes Classic Open Champion and an NCHA World Champion.
Ranch-owned stallions include WR This Cats Smart, a young sire whose get have
already earned more than $3.6 million in NCHA, NRCHA and AQHA events, as well
as up-and-coming Genuine Masterpiece, an AQHA and NRCHA Cow Horse World
Champion.
Program results also can be seen in the ranch’s remuda, which is comprised of
“horsemen’s horses” with outstanding quality and conformation. Wagonhound Land &
Livestock continues to develop, grow, and evolve in today’s ranching industry, remaining
steadfast in maintaining the highest of standards.
