A jewel of a producer - this is PLAISIR d'AMOUR

Many years ago, I was offered frozen semen of this good stallion, PLAISIR d'AMOUR. At the time, I was really interested in him, but did not think that the American breeders would recognize his qualities. He is a direct son of PIK BUBE out of a FURIOSO xx - MIRACOLOxx damline.

So, I have watched him through the years, and a common factor started emerging some years back .... I noticed that his daughters began producing extra special offspring; San Amour- Sandro Hit - Plaisir d'Amour is one of the most recent, as well as the good stallion D'AMOUR -Dream of Heidelburg - Plaisir d'Amour. He is quite the progenitor.
Plaisir d'Amour's foals are also performing well, with 75% of his foals achieving premium status. His blood continues to show up in top riding horses and auction offerings with many of them achieving top prices at the Vechta auction. His daughter, Puppenfee, was 1b Brillantringstute of the Oldenburger elite mare show in 1997 in Rastede and breed ambassador at the Europachampionat in Brussels, 1998. The Plaisir d'Amour son Paramount was in 1998 a finalist at the Bundesreitpferde-Championat.
He now has many States Premium daughters and licensed grandsons!

On a personal breeding level, I made it my mission to add some PLAISIR d'AMOUR blood to my program and was delighted to find my mare, DONNABELLE, who is a direct daughter of DONNERHALL out of a PLAISIR d'AMOUR mare.

I will have frozen semen of this excellent producer. I recommend him for those of you who are interested in not only producing quality riding horses but also in impacting the next generation of top breeding quality animals.
Doses will be $1250. He is licensed Oldenburg and Hanoverian.
