MR. SHINING GUN

Mr. Shining Gun may catch your eye with his gorgeous buckskin blanket coat, but it’s this Appaloosa’s personality and athleticism that will keep you watching! Better known as “Goose” to his family, he has been a stand out in Appaloosa Horse Club (ApHC) competition for over a decade.

Owned by Jim Jirkovsky but loved by the entire family, Goose has the honor of competing with three generations of Jim’s family. This special connection has resulted in titles in youth, open, cow horse, ranch, and roping events. Goose’s accomplishments include being named World's Best Appaloosa at the World Championship Appaloosa Show three times, 17 Open World and National Championships, three World Champion Cattle Horse titles, and 15 Youth World Championships. In 2019, Goose was inducted into the ApHC’s Hall of Fame, making him one of only 17 geldings to achieve this honor!

Happiest when showing, Goose is still competing and teaching the younger generation the rewards of stellar horsemanship

Breyer model horses are a triumph of artistry and refinement, capturing the indefinable presence and unique features that distinguish the spirit and personality of the real horse. Scuplted by talented equestrian artists, individually painted by hand and carefully detailed, Breyer models are without equal in authenticity and artistry. Whether a portrait model of a famous horse or accomplished champion, Breyer models are destined to become a centrepiece of a collection that will last an entire lifetime.
 
When artistry is everything, it has to be a Breyer model horse.
