Bond
Snippet
Size: 32.5"
Year: 1982
Sire: Bond Showboy
Dam: Bond Thumbalina
When Kay Pate started showing Bond Snippet she made quite a stir on the
Texas show scene. She had bought quite a few Bond horses and claims to
have gotten Snippet "thrown in" on a deal for a few show
halters! He was in bad shape and had almost been foundered and Mr. Bond
thought that he really wasn't worth much. Kay had been quite successful
showing quarter horses for quite sometime and brought that expertise to
the miniature area when she started showing Snippet. She proved Mr. Bond
wrong in a big way! The previous year I had been very successful showing
another Bond horse, Bond Peter Piper, usually winning that size class.
When Snippet started showing we placed second to him almost every time,
and I must say that I agreed with that placing and so I sold Peter!
Snippet was campaigned extremely well for several seasons winning Reserve
National Grand Champion Senior Stallion in 1987 and was National Champion
Multi Color the previous year.
One of the prettiest headed stallions of the breed, Snippet, passes on
quality and show "pizazz" to his offspring, who continue to make
their mark.
