Valor – Meeker’s Tigrato Valor of Forest Lakes

 

We are excited to see that Valor has better genetic diversity than both her dam and her sire!

Valor is a beautiful brown and she debuted in the show ring at Premier Nationals in June 2022! 

 

Valor is clear for all identified genetic diseases found in the breed as well as 204 other genetic diseases. We look forward to completing her final health testing when she reaches 2 years of age.
