For those who dream of owning a horse one day

Gypsy Vanners are stunning, no doubt about that

I'm still a quarter horse fan...just nothing like the performance to me

Nice story Texasgal!

Oh, I'm sure!! I work alone and take my break time on forums to get some people-interaction-time.

I'm on COTH and HGS and have posted on a couple other horse forums occasionally.

HGS it is ... I remember when you got your stallion .. funny how I recognize the horse.. lol

Hmmm, well I'm pretty much a horse lover all around, I think all breeds are great in their own ways.

My tastes have changed alot over the years. I think Palominos were my first love (a color, not a breed I know, but still), that dream came true for me when I was an early teen, although she wasn't the golden palomino of my dreams, more a pale yellow, but nice long flowing mane, and just an awsome temperment and personality! She was awsome!

I prefer stock horses, there are alot of beautiful breeds out there, but for me I'd like the athletic, versital, working type breeds the best. I also love flash and pretty! My current true loves are paints and pintos, preferably overo, splash or frames are my favorites! I still love palominos to, so have my dream horse in my golden palomino overo gelding!

I also have my minis which I really really enjoy! I'm not riding much lately, but I do still drive my minis! My main driving mini is a sorrel frame overo, who is awsome (actually he's also either sabino or roan).

HOLY COW! Those are the most mystical, beautiful horses I have EVER seen! I had never heard of them, but boy am I a fan now!!


I have Thoroughbreds, a quarter horse and a mini, but have always LOVED drafts of all kinds!

I'm in the Hunter/Jumper world and currently own a Selle Francais mare. Really like the breed and will probably stay within it. Yes, $35K is a reasonable amount for a made show horse who is very competitive locally and can put in decent trips at the A/AAs. A made competitve A/AA regular working hunter or Big Eq should cost you at least $75k on the low end.

Have done the Friesian thing in the past and drove Unicorn or Four-in-Hand. Of course now that I'd gotten spoiled, nothing less than first premie, ster will do and I don't have that kind of money... yet ;-).

I dreamed of owning a horse for 15 years of "junior pro" riding and working for various private farms. Finally have one to call my own!

My favorite ~~ Paso Fino ... we have nine ... prefer NOT to trot these old bones! I also absolutely enjoyed several trail rides on Icelandics.

Gypsies are beautiful, but I would love to have a Fresian.

Hopefully if all goes well next year I will breed my Saddlebred to a Fresian. Here is one I have chosen.

Between the gait that my mare has and the gait that the stud has hopefully the offspring will be like riding on cloud.

I only breed of horse I wouldn't own is a TB not that they are a bad breed. We just don't seem to mesh very well.
