As important as our stallions, our broodmares are selected for movement, temperament and conformation. 

Breeding proven stallions to mares with athletic ability, enables Avalon Farms to produce purebred Andalusians suitable for open competition in any sport horse discipline.

DICHOSA DE LA PARRA AP
(Dejado x Caprichosa)

Black bay mare sired by Dejado, considered by Robert Varva to have been one of the ten most beautiful horses in the world. 

Dichosa was bred by the Parra family of Andalusians de la Parra (www.andalusiansdelaparra.com). 

Dichosa has massive bone and substance like her sire.  She has a huge, powerful, straight trot which she passes to all of her offspring  (example:  Favorito KG).  Dichosa also has a quiet disposition and is gentle with all her handlers.  She is an excellent mother who produces exceptional offspring.

ILUSION DE LA PARRA
(Boticario de la Parra x Quisquillosa II)

Ilusion is a beautiful grey 1992 PRE Andalusian mare bred by the Parras of San Antonio. She was sired by the 1993 National Champion Senior Stallion, Boticario de la Parra .   Her dam, Quisquillosa II, was a black mare bred by Francisco Lazo Diaz (“Paco” Lazo), and imported to the United States by the Parra family.  Ilusion has powerful, straight movement with a Spanish lift.  She is an intelligent, kind, alpha mare and a terrific riding horse when she is not in foal. 

Ilusion continues to amaze us with her offspring – all of whom have incredible movement and great “working” temperaments.  Her offspring make terrific performance horses and are prepotent when bred, passing their beauty and ability.

Ilusion stands 15.3h, and has her Spanish (ANCCE) as well as IALHA papers.  She is an every other year breeder (will not get in foal until the current foal is weaned).  Her foals have been worth the wait.
