Rancho Del Sueno

Our mission is to save this extraordinary breed from extinction . The Cruce Horses are direct descendants of those brought to the New World from Spain in the early 16th century and are an integral part of the southwest's early history. The foundation stock of our herd originated from Father Kino's Mission Dolores in Sonora, Mexico and were brought... up to the Pimera Alta, the area made up of Southern AZ and Northern Sonora, Mexico. These horses bear a striking resemblance to those depicted in the Baroque art following the Renaissance period and are more like the original horses of Spain than the breeds that exist in Iberia today. Rancho Del Sueño is a 40 acre conservation and visitation center. Feel free to inquire about visiting these unique and fascinating horses, or ask about participating in our equine assisted learning (EAL) or wellness programs.

"They were our companions from sun up to sundown and sometimes deep into the night, year in and year out. They had speed, stamina, courage, and intelligence." ~ Eva Antonia Wilbur-CruceRead More
