Hello! We are Ron and Glenda Deziel. We welcome you to our 'Home on the Web' and sincerely hope that you enjoy your visit.
Lovin 'R ' Paints is located by Gadsby, Alberta, Canada. Gadsby is the smallest village in Alberta and is about 22km (12miles) east of Stettler.
We fell in love with the paint horses many years ago and have worked to produce outstanding colorful foals with good working cow horse bloodlines - in particular Poco Bueno, King, Doc Bar, and Skipper W. When we started out, we could not find a paint horse in our area, with Poco Bueno up front in their pedigree. And certainly not a black and white. Always looking for a challenge, we started with one good bay paint mare and said that we were going to work to produce well colored paint foals with Poco Bueno lines. It's been an interesting journey so far - a few laughs, a few tears, a few sleepless nights. But overall it has been good! Our lives revolve around our small but select mare band. We believe that good horses come from good horses. We also believe that disposition and conformation is a must - color is a bonus! Colored or not, each one has their own personality that make them unique. We have chosen to be a breeding farm only. We are not trainers nor do we offer boarding or showing services - simply breeding and producing high quality foals. After several back operations and finally a spinal fusion, Ron is limited in many of his activities. And as we are 'middle-aged teenagers' without family near, we have decided to keep things manageable without giving up our goals. We have three stallions, all of which we bred and raised. The oldest is a solid brown breeding stock stallion who is 25.51% Poco Bueno bred. He has both Poco Bueno and Doc Bar on his pedigree and he has been the foundation in our breeding program. So, starting with a solid to producing color, meant that we had to learn a lot about genetics. It has been a fun and interesting journey! Every spring we know the 'possibles' of our breeding and we even bet with each other on the outcomes. Whether we win or lose, we enjoy it and we are thankful that we are able to share our lives with these wonderful creatures! We offer foals that are not only pleasing to the eye, but athletic, smart and eager to learn. Foals that will become a willing partner for their owners and that they will be proud to own. Whether you are a breeder or want to show, or just like to spend your spare time trail riding, we invite you to look at our foals.
We wish to encourage everyone to follow your dream always!
Here's more history on Ron and Glenda... Click on the picture to read: "A letter from the dog ... Now how weird is that???" ... update June 16th, 2006 - Bug is now 13 ½ years old and still has 'attitude'!
It is with great sadness and a broken heart that we announce that our dear little Bug passed away November 13th, 2006. She has been a true friend in every way and helped us through rough times and shared the good times. She was a little trouper until the very end. She waited until we woke up at 3:30 am, then came over and laid at my feet. She died in our arms - she had waited to say good bye! We have been truly blessed by being able to share our life with Embers Firebug and she will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Our hearts have given up another piece with the passing of Wiser on January 23, 2009. She was 12 years old and died at home with us both at her side. She had been having heart troubles and we thought we were going to lose her Christmas Eve, but the Good Lord let her stay with us a month longer. We got her when she was just 8 months old and tied on a chain. She may have ended up tied forever in someone's backyard had we not noticed her. We did have to tie her for a few days when we moved, but other than that - her collar was off and she was free to roam the pastures. She loved to catch gophers and bring them home for the cats. She never ate them, but made sure everyone was looked after. In her younger years, she always watched us from the sidelines - always protective. In her old age, she spent her time sleeping in the sun and mooching treats. We have been so very lucky to have not just one special dog in our lives, but two. We miss her terribly! She was a true friend.
