Rob's Counterpoint
I do not have a stallion at stud at the present time. My stallion, Rob's Counterpoint was 27
years old in May and I had to have him put to sleep on the anniversary of his mother's
(Nairobi) birth just this year (1997). He was sired by Count Imaraff, an Imaraff son. He was
the greatest "guy" I have known! He was my favorite mount, as when I would get home
from a stressful day at the office, I could just jump on him bareback with just
the halter and a lead rope and head out for our 400 acres of woods to calm myself down.
I have not raised any Arabians for 5 years. I have found that it is just
too difficult to find the proper homes for my "babies". I used to show my Arabians, especially
Nairobi, in open shows, but haven't done so for a number of years. My favorite seasons
are spring and fall, when the flies and bugs aren't bad. Then I can head out for my
favorite place, our wooded acreage!
At this time I own one Nairobi daughter, and 3 Nairobi granddaughters. Bint
Nairobi was sired by a *Charaff son. Her 2 daughters, Desert Shalome and Bint Bint
Nairobi, were sired by Black Coffee, who is now owned by Black Rose Arabians. TJ Bint
Synairi was sired by Rob's Counterpoint (Count Imaraff x Nairobi) and was out of
Synairi (Synbad x Nairobi).
I have an indoor riding arena, but with a full time job and 2 teenage sons
(17 and 14) who are very involved in sports, I really don't have much chance to make use of
it. I work for the district administrator of the Tomahawk School District, where I have
worked since January of 1961. I also have Siberian Huskies, which I used to raise,
show, and dogsled with during the time period of BK (before kids). I also have 2 pinto mini
horse mares which I am considering selling, as I don't have the time for them that they
deserve. About 5 years ago my boys were into ball python snakes, and I really enjoyed
them. My husband used to spend time with me and the animals, that time period is known as BH
(before Harley-Davidsons). He works for Harley Davidson here in Tomahawk and gets
an employee discount of 20%, so he gets a new Harley every year.
I love all horses, and have loved them for as far back as I can remember. But once I saw
the Arabian, there was no other horse for me. And once I owned Nairobi and
her wonderful sons, daughters, and granddaughters, there was no other
foundation mare that could compare! She was bred to National Champion Synbad twice, Midwest
Champion Jaadon (sired by Gazon) twice, and Count Imaraff (sired by Imaraff) twice.
She was bred to a number of other stallions also, bringing her total number of offspring
to 8 colts and 3 fillies. If anyone out there has an Arabian with Nairobi in the
background, PLEASE CONTACT ME!
