Callaho is a Warmblood Sport Horse breeding stud situated in the sweet thornveld savannas of the Kalahari Desert. Started 26 years ago with a handful of half-bred mares, our focus quickly evolved with the acquisition, over several years, of unique European mares most of whom had already produced or were very closely related to the dams of European, International or Olympic champions.

In the 90's, a search for a sound showjumper with outstanding potential led to the rekindling of a multigenerational obsession with horses and breeding. Thus, the Callaho concept was hatched. From the very onset we resolved to unwaveringly adhere to four principles:

• Aspire to breed the very best athletes our resources will allow
• To deliver outstanding value to our clients
• Unconditional transparency
• To never compromise on our integrity

Now a quarter of a century later, these values have stood the test of time to become the very essence of who we are. Far from having arrived, we're just getting started.

Our first 2009 Callaho Auction has evolved over the years from a "live" format held on the Studfarm to a strictly "Online" platform necessitated by the Covid pandemic. This year, to celebrate our 21st Auction, we have re-engineered our endeavours to bring 24 Callaho Sporthorses and 7 pregnant broodmares to market with a live and online "hybrid" event.

Our Callaho adage, “Breeding Magic”, has never been more apt and truly finds expression in our Auction Collection.
