On Saturday, July 24, Clayton and Sally Chord opened their home and ranch west of Custer to the public for an open house featuring their Quarter Horses.
The Chords both grew up on ranches in western South Dakota. For nearly 30 years, they have owned Cee Heart Quarter Horses, a foundation bred Quarter Horse program, as a continuation of Sally’s parents’ operation which began in 1958. “My parents (Jack and Ellen Paulton) originally just loved horses. But then, as they had kids, they wanted to raise good youth horses that us kids could enjoy and be competitive on,” said Sally.
“Our horses are a blend of foundation cow horses with speed,” explained Clayton.
