Tsuniah's H.B.
H.B. is raised with a bottle and becomes a real gentleman, despite the fact his mother had not been around to teach him proper manners. People say orphan foals often are difficult to handle with a lack of respect to humans. As we say: Exception confirms the rule since this stallion has a golden disposition. H.B. works as a breedingstallion at a big Tennessee Walking Horse ranch in Canada untill visitors from Switzerland arrive. Even though this stallion is only green broke to ride, it is love at first sight. H.B. is renamed into Chinook and moves to Europe.
I return to Switzerland almost 5 months later to conduct a second clinic and meet this stallion again. I was thrilled to see 'the new & improved' without becoming pacy. Tsuniah's H.B. is one of the view Heritage sires in Europe. For more info on Heritage Tennessee Walking Horses click here.
The proud owners of Chinook are Silvia & Reto Deiss.
On May 18th Chinook's first European bred foal was deliverd. We named him Pleasure's Eternal Flame aka Ravi.

foal is born. The fear of every breeder happens; the mare dies and

The new owner
has little experience with the gaits of the Tennessee Walking Horse but
works with Chinook on a daily basis and even teaches him the Spanish
Walk. It is untill participation to a TWH clinic in November '03 when
Chinook and owner get riding- and trainingtips to improve the smooth
gaits of this horse. Chinook and owner get to work when he is already 10
years old.
Meanwhile
we had the privelege to have Chinook at stud at our farm for 2 seasons.
Ravi is his first European bred son. In 2006 we expect 3 more of his
offspring of which 2 at our place. Chinook also helped promoting the
breed in Europe. His pictures taken during a photosession in 2004 have
been used in several magazines. Together we gave several demonstrations
throughout Europe of which the pictures can be found on our
