Welcome to My Web Site AmocoLoft.com.

I would like to take this opportunity and welcome you to MY WORLD. The world of Thorough Bred Racing Homers. I have been involved, or should say fascinated, with these wonderful creatures God has given us for the past 50 years.  I am a professional Trainer of some of the best racers in the country. I also convoy and  liberate some of the biggest special races in our area, which included the 2006 IF Convention Race. 

My love for these birds has brought me so much JOY with the bond that they and I  have with eachother; PRIDE with the accomplishments that my birds have achieved, winning almost every major race in the New York Metro area and also all over this great country of ours, even against all odds; and, yes, SADNESS when one does not come home, or when they get old and pass on. It is hard to explain the feeling of emptiness when you gaze at the nest box where they resided and are no longer there; and FRIENDSHIPS I have made with fanciers who are not afraid to reach out their hand and help when I'm in need of a good bird, advice when I start to second guess my self!, or to just listen to me when I just need to blow off some steam!!!! ...or as my wonderful wife Catherine calls it VENTING!

I wish to acknowledge my good friend and recent partner, Joe Perino, whom I've known for more then half my life. Eric Gioiosa (Uncle Eric), Chris Peeman, and John Sampson. These three men have supplied me with some of the best pigeons I have the privilege of owning.  And now the two backbones of the health and well being of my birds, DR. Kevin Zollars DMV and DR.

 

Our small training truck, Holds 48 crates 24" x 41" with wire floors. We average 6 first place winners per week! We go out four times a week. Tuesday & Thursday 80 Miles, Monday & Friday 60 Miles.

 

Steve Weir DVM. Without all their help and advice, I would still be in square one!  Also, I would like to thank my good friend, Henk Kuylaars, for the beautiful pictures and Ronda Mariani, who is responsible for bringing this web site all together and making my dream a reality.

I hope that you will enjoy viewing our birds and lofts. If you see a pair that you would like to have me mate for you for that special young one, just email me and I'll see what I can do. We always have, Young birds for sale in the Spring and Old birds for sale in the fall.

Yours in the Sport,

Vinny Amoco
