I finally have a short DVD of Altemus available. It nicely shows off his movement undersaddle. Anyone interested
can email me at samantha@altemusbreeding.com with their mailing address to receive a free copy.

Due to the fact that Altemus is injured and is taking some time off from showing, he will have a reduced stud fee this
year of $750 (including a $250 booking fee) LFG. Foals will be eligible for registration with the AWS.

Altemus is currently taking some time off of training because of an injury. He is at a stallion
station, Amethyst Acres Equine Center Inc. in Buchana,VA, and will stay there for some time off and some rehab, but
will still be available for breeding this year.

Altemus has gone into training with Sue Cooper in Huddleston, VA. Sue is a USDF bronze, silver, and gold medalist
and a well known trainer and competitor. She will be training and showing Altemus and we are looking forward
to the 2008 show season!

Altemus and I will be moving to Blacksburg, VA at the end of August. Altemus will be standing at stud in 2008
in Virginia. He will also begin competing in Virginia in 2008 as well.

I will be in Europe from June 12 - July 3, so Altemus will not be available for collections during these times.
Hope everyone is having a great summer!

On April 23, 2007 a lovely Altemus colt was born. The colt is out of MCG Anthracite, a beautiful and tall Morgan
mare. The colt has Altemus' conformation and will make either a jumper or a dressage horse, with his long legs, huge
stride, and powerful haunches. Antares will be registered and inspected with the AWS. He is owned by Candace Costis
and is offered for sale. SOLD

Altemus has been Approved for Breeding with the American Warmblood Society!
He has earned one star and is listed as Altemus*. We have decided that we don't want to put him
through the 100 or 30 day test, so we are currently working towards obtaining his dressage requirements needed for approval
with RPSI and ISR/OLD N.A.
July 3, 2005
Altemus will not be available for breeding July 4-8.
June 3, 2005
I have decided that Altemus will attend the AWS inspection. We have had many mare owners with AWS mares interested
in breeding who have inquired about possible AWS approval.

Last weekend at the Cedar Trace Dressage Show, Altemus won all 3 of his classes. Out 4th class was scratched due
