Butter is a stunningly beautiful mare!  Watching her float across the pasture is a study in beauty.  She has a gorgeous, hooky neck, tabletop croup, pretty head and a large, soft eye.  She's a terrific mother and passes her best qualities on to her foals.

Butter was bred by the late Lowell Boone.  Her sire gave the Boones 8 foals and her dam, J Js Golden Glow Girl, was one of their favorites.  Glow Girl produced many foals and was always bred to the best stallions, such as Boones Little Buckeroo (multiple times) and his son, Little Kings Buck Echo.  Glow Girl is now retied and resides at Little King Farm.

This mare is one of my favorites.  Butter was in foal for 2011 to tne and only Glenns General Patton.  Sadly, the filly she was carrying was malpositioned and wasn't able to be delivered successfull.  She was stunning a delicate filly.

Here are a few of Butter's foals:
