"Being able to go from Live Cover one day to AI the next tells a lot about a stallion's personality. Jak is my favorite to collect because he has a good temperament and gets right down to business."                     - Dr Fitzgerald Steinbeck Country Equine Hospital

"Late 2003, I acquired a lovely old style Trakehner mare of impeccable bloodlines.  However she was very heavy boned and not of what the modern breeders are looking for anymore.   With this in mind, I began my search for a stallion to complement her athletcism but refine her somewhat to create the ultimate sport horse.  I can't tell you how many videos I looked at of various Trakehner stallions and some Arabs.   Since the Trakehners have a strong influence of Arabian blood what better to cross my mare with an Arab stallion!   Then one day I picked up a copy of Equestrian Connection with Jak's picture on the cover.  It was a perfect fit.   The resulting colt is "Fawzi", which means winner in Arabic.   This colt is truly a winner and will be following his parents footsteps in the dressage ring.   Fawzi is a laid back, mellow sort of guy that takes it all in stride.  He is a stunning chestnut with lots of chrome and will surely stand out in a crowd.   Overall, the experience of breeding my mare to Jak and my dealings with Carlin Arabians has been a pleasure.  Liz Carlin continually keeps in touch and it seems that Jak's family is ever growing with offspring as well as owner/breeders."        -Cathy Garello breeder of Fawzi H/A Trakehner SOLD for $,5000 as a weanling

"I met Jak just before his training began and watched his beautiful elastic movement as he floated around the ring at liberty. There was no question that breeding to him would give suspension and flash to a foal.  I bred a grey Arabian mare to Jak and they produced a kind and inquisitive bay colt with flashy markings and incredible movement. Jak of Hearts (JJ)
is now a two year old  and has a loving disposition, an energy and willingness to learn. Getting to know Liz Carlin has been an added bonus to the breeding arrangement. She has become a cherished friend.  I was so very pleased with the entire experience with the  resulting foal, that I repeated the breeding."  -Diane Garcia breeder of Jak of Hearts

"My experience with Carlin Arabians and Jumpin Jak Flash+++// has brought our breeding business to it's finest.  Our Half Arabian filly, Jumpin Out shows great potential for the show ring, and has been easy to handle, with a great temperament.  She is as straight as they get, and has a very flashy liver chestnut color, unusual because both Jak and her dam are bay.  Breeding our mare to Jak produced such a perfect foal, we now have three additional mares in foal to Jak.  We have a Spanish arabian mare, our National Show Horse mare and a Quarter horse mare, all due in 2006.  Jak passes along his floating trot, marvelous attitude, and sweet temperament to his foals, and we are looking forward to seeing what he brings to our next foal crop." -Kathryn Meyers owner of Willow Creek Ranch and breeder of Jumpin Out        

"Jak has put alot of, I want to say, expression in Mysha  (Mesoflashy). Her head is really nice, Ali (her dam) is very plain, no dish, whereas Mysha does. She is very sweet, likes lots of loving, and is very easy to teach. I am very satisfied with the breeding, I have a really nice filly, which I hope will go into Dressage or Endurance. Mysha loves to run, lots of extension, next year will be very interesting. She is very solid, lots of substance. I bred to Jak because of his substance (bone), elegance and his great disposition as Ali (her dam) is pretty hypher, but she can work a cow!" -Kay Fish breeder of Meesoflashy
