Sure Man was retired from the show ring after three years, still being a happy, sound stallion.
He has produced National Top Ten Get.
So much more important than the ribbons and trophy's, is his spirit. He never ceases to amaze me with is kind soul, and huge heart.
He is my sunshine!

Thank you Mike McCabe..MTC Training.
For believeing in this little guy! And for a life long friendship!
Thank You Becky McKieth...Snowberry Farm
for taking him out 1 more time, believing he could STILL do it!
Then there is Shellie, My daughter, Sure
Mans biggest fan. Well I am the biggest, but she is close...
It all started with Shellie and Sure Man in their first show. He showed in every class we could enter him in. He won them all. He was given 2 boxes of Apple treats to keep him interested..lol
We have come a long way since then.
Then she had the idea one more time .. 8 years later .
Look at what he has done!
She will never stop believing ...
And HE will never stop trying!
UPDATE JUNE 2007
Sure Man is back into training at age 15, and after 8 years of retirement.
Being driven by Becky McKieth of Snowberry Farm.
