Our Story
Giles Ranch II of Azle, Texas is the second of the ‘Giles Ranch’ names. Originally started in Jasper, Missouri, the Giles raised grass fed Murray Grey cattle. The Giles selected good stewardship as the distinguishing characteristic of their family ranch.
Gaited horses were first introduced to me at their ranch & it changed my horse career forever!
Giles Ranch II is proud to continue the legacy & create a new one in the world of the gaited trail horse. We strive to be good stewards of the great creation which God has given us.
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace….”
-1 Peter 4:10
We are a small operation & want to promote the Tennessee Walking Horses’ versatility. Furthering the breed with traditional size, bone, gait & kindness is our mission.
We found it difficult to find a tall, solid Tennessee Walking Horse here in Texas. We decided to invest in stock that best represent the old school build we are looking for. We plan to slowly grow our program. We want good dispositions, large builds & natural gaits to be the most noticeable qualities in our stock.
For the love of horses,
For as long as I can remember, I have loved horses. My parents supported my love & my mother taught me to be fearless on the back of a horse. My aunt gladly provided me with horses over the years & with the support of those horse women behind me, I became obsessed. I thank God for a husband who supports me, a family who loves me & great horses to ride.
Happy Trails!
-Cahlynn Giles, Giles Ranch II
