New rider.
Under 30 days together.
Five month layoff.
Middle of breeding season.
Here is what happened.

Some horses make excuses easily. Kick the Dust Up does not give you the option.

In April at the North Central Reined Cow Horse Association ( ), coming off a five month break, with a new trainer carrying under 30 days of time on him and in the middle of an active breeding season, he stepped in and did this:

Back-to-back Open Bridle wins. Placing across five classes. A 73 rein and 74 fence on Saturday with every reason in the world not to perform at his best.

Ryan's words: "I would have laughed at someone if they said that's how he'd do. It was a storybook debut."

That is not potential. That is elite ability. That is intention.

Season closes in July.

Also this.

Kick the Dust Up - Stallion has two modes: big teddy bear in the barn, and all business when the lights come on.

Trainers and barn staff at Bluff Country Equine Veterinary Center will tell you the same thing. You would not know a stallion was on the property even when it is time to work.

Then he turns into a different horse.

15 NRCHA titles. Back-to-back Open Bridle wins in April at the North Central Reined Cow Horse Association.

A 73 rein and a 74 fence at the last show.

The tongue picture just comes with the package. ๐Ÿ˜‰

We (Studnicka Cattle Co.) recently acquired Kick the Dust Up - Stallion and will be the first to tell you that we are still getting to know him.

What we already know: this horse has a presence. A soft eye. A quiet, manageable temperament in everyday life. And when it is time to work, something different comes out entirely.

That combination does not show up often. The record was already there. The personality is proving it out in person.

Luke is pictured with his current trainers Damien Mikkelson and Lacey Mikkelson of DM Performance Horses and Stock Dogs and some words they have on him:

"I enjoy riding him everyday, he's easy to have around, talented, great mover, and super attractive on top of all that! He's definitely a joy to have in the barn and blast to show"

The season closes in July. That is a real deadline with a real biological reason behind it.

To hit the right cycle window, your vet needs lead time now. Confirm cycle timing. Arrange collection or shipping. Get paperwork started.

If you reach out this week, there is still time to get your mare in. Wait too long and you may miss the window entirely.

There is intention in every detail with Kick the Dust Up - Stallion. The size. The eye appeal. The color. The physical attributes that make people stop and look before he ever sets foot in the pen.

By ONE TIME Pepto out of Kickback Nic, who is out of a 24-million-dollar sire line and an Open NCHA Stallion Stakes Champion dam.

The pedigree matches the eye appeal. What you see standing in the barn is what the bloodlines built.

Season closes in July.

A big teddy bear in the barn. All business when the lights come on.
Kick the Dust Up has a soft eye and a quiet mind. Trainers who have been around him say you would not know a stallion was in the barn. He is manageable, easy, and genuinely good-natured in everyday life.
Then the bright lights come on.
He is locked in. A complete showman. When he rates a calf, he is a different horse entirely, a different speed that Ryan says he has not seen replicated in 15 cowhorse shows over three years.
Intention. Versatility. Elite ability. That is what his offspring are bred for.

A clean health panel is not optional. It is table stakes.
HYPP, HERDA, GBED, MH, PSSM, MYHM, EJSCA โ€ข the standards for AQHA-eligible horses. If you are breeding mares with any risk factor, you need the stallion's panel status before you commit.
Kick the Dust Up's health panel is available. Ask for it. Any program that will not share it is not worth your mare.
