Heather Whitney knows she was born horse crazy. Born and raised in California, she vividly remembers insisting her parents stop whenever they saw a horse so that she could pet one. Eventually she was able to begin riding, and early on leased a Half-Arabian mare named Sweetheart. Drawn by an admiration of the look, movement, personality and exotic history of Arabians, by the time she turned 12, Heather found herself immersed in all things horse care and Arabian horse heritage at Baker’s Arabians in Chatsworth, California. It was through the Bakers that she became the proud owner of her first purebred, Ddallas (Taleeze x Gwalmaita Witez), and dreamed of someday being able to breed her own perfect Arabian horse(s).

Medallion Performance Horses was established in Utah (2017), Heather had been fortunate to have leased a few top mares from Varian Arabians, and had purchased others. The MPH breeding program is focused on producing Arabian and Half-Arabian performance horses with outstanding confirmation, willing temperaments, great movement, and excellent type… all of the trademarks of the ideal and versatile Arabian horse. Our program is steeped in a tradition of appreciation for the rich history of this amazing breed, including its tremendous character, intelligence, athletic ability, and captivating beauty. We strive to produce Western and Hunter Pleasure horses of exceptional quality that can also excel in other specialty disciplines and equine sport activities.
