Amigo,sired by Papa Smoke, is a direct descendant of the Lakota horse that once carried Chief Sitting Bull, wild horses that once roamed the Little Missouri Badlands of North Dakota.  The Nokota is a sound, athletic, agile, hardy and very surefooted horse with great stamina.  They typically have a square, angular frame, tapering musculature, v-shaped front quarters, angular shoulders with prominent withers, distinctly sloped croup, low-set tail and very strong bones, legs and hooves.  They often have feathered fetlocks and their ears are slightly hooked at the tips.  Nokotas are predominantly blue roan or red roan like Thunder Fox, Ehawee and Dancer's Flame.  Amigo is unusual in that he is a tri-colored overo. Nokotas are very smart horses.  You can almost see them figuring out a given situation.  Those that show them patience, respect and friendship are rewarded with a deeply trusting and respectful relationship in return.
