The Lippitt Morgan Breeders' Association is dedicated to the preservation & promotion of the Lippitt horse. Our association is committed to maintaining the integrity, heritage, and legacy of the Lippitt Morgan through breeding, education, and community engagement. We take pride in our mission to uphold the standards of this historic breed and provide valuable resources to enthusiasts and owners. Join us in celebrating the beauty and versatility of the Lippitt horse as we work towards a sustainable future for this cherished American treasure.

​

The Lippitt is a distinct horse in that it has no recent out-crosses to other breeds, resulting in the highest percentage of the original blood available today. Therefore, Lippitts also possess more of the original type and qualities of their founder, Figure, otherwise known as Justin Morgan. They are celebrated for their versatility, willingness to please, disposition, type, and overall beauty that attracted Phillips, Knight and many of us as owners and breeders.

The Lippitt Foundation Stock
The Foundation Stock were chosen by three criteria:

1 - They must be registered Morgans.
2 - They must have as close a cross to our 'cornerstone' Peters' Ethan Allen 2nd 406 as possible.
3 - They must have produced at least one direct line of descent evidenced in our present 'Lippitt' population. Since to be considered a Lippitt a horse must be totally derived from this Foundation Stock, criteria for their selection is crucial. All Lippitts trace back, on every line of their pedigree to the following foundation horses:
