A little history about us...

Both he and Astrid are still very much involved with the AQHA, and in raising horses for AQHA, NRHA, and NCHA competition. They have been very successful in the show pen, achieving European and German championships in multiple disciplines.

Dick Herr retired in 2012. He was the ranch manager at Main River for over 20 years. A former AQHA judge and PRCA competitor, Dick provided dedicated service during his time at Main River, for which we are very grateful. Dick still resides at the ranch with his wife, Kendall. Kendall breeds some of the nation’s finest Labrador retrievers under the name of her Dickendall Kennel.
The Ranch Manager at the ranch is Garry Starr. If you want to reach him, please call (940) 665 4547 or e-Mail at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .
