Come join me in doing what I do best - viewing our training sessions from a comfortable chair. I'm sitting on a High Point Donkey and I've left a High Point Green for you.

It has been Coffee Hollow's policy from the beginning to hire the best trainers and handlers we could find for what we consider our Foundation Stock. It is our belief that proving up foundation stock in the show ring is a must. This gives our purchasers of young stock a more than good reason to believe that their's can do the same. From experience we have learned many lessons and have assurance that good sportsmanship, performance bloodlines, modern training methods, and perseverance can produce top winners in all performance classes, both English and Western. Our many halter blue ribbons attest to the fact that halter wins and performance wins can come from the same animals. We are also certain that inhumane practices and training methods for donkeys and mules should be a thing of the past.

In these photos you will find named some of the excellent people we have used here in Texas and we thank each of them for their contribution. The backbone of our operation, Jesse Cammacho, has been the foreman at Coffee Hollow for 15 years and has had the advantage of being with us since the beginning. He started all of these animals on their show careers beginning with pulling sleds and logs, graduating to carts and wagons, and going on to riding and performance. You will find him in many of our Coffee Hollow Photos.

Many of the fabulous action shots have been taken by family friend Cherine Beaver, professional photographer, artist and author of children's books (also the proud owner of Coffee Hollow Hot Totty below).
