Bred in Idaho; Bill and Norma Bennett Sr gave their daughter Pam her 1st AQHA mare, Copper Sheiba, mare that started KT Ranch horse herd. Copper Sheiba was mountain horse that had been run wild until 2, roped & cowboy broke. Bill traded cow for her & given toPam. She was smart & would get cow in if person could stay on her back. Never friendly, Copper Sheiba loved to chase cows, soon partnership between horse & rider developed. Pam & husband, Don Pierson bred Copper Sheiba to some fantastic local stallions, Willie War Chic, Guy’s Orbit, & had owned Reed King Duster, raising great foals with Sheiba, producing total of 6. https://ktranch.com/history/
