Not only that - but in most other breeds "Color Class" is for any horses registered with a color breed (Buckskin, Palomino, Paint, Pinto, etc). So when "big horse" folks show up to a mini show that's what they're thinking... I know I did!

LOL well given that it's not an issue for me and TBO too busy and easier to ask here - your statement is a LMAO to me. I will say though that for all the breeds that REQUIRE gloves it looks SO MUCH BETTER. After watching many folks (including 'top' trainers) compete at Nationals with no...

I guess to me gloves are a necessary part of showing in driving classes? Am I wrong for AMHR?

lol ditto... saves me looking for his email

I know 1st hand that they are NOT in business any longer. There is a gal that occaisionally answers phones for them - but is just acting as a booking agent for other companies. Most of their business is being re-directed to Danny Gilder - we just used him to haul a mini from WA to LA - they...

***Applauds***

Good for you! People are SO ignorant over Impressive-bred horses. There is NOTHING to pass on if they're N/N. Mandatory test with AQHA, APHA, ApHC - so there's no excuse not to know. If they're N/N - they're no different than any other horse (just prettier) - and can't pass something on they...

Coming from a longtime training and show barn - that has seen more than 100 Impressive-bred horses I completely disagree. There are 'many' issues I've heard attributed to these lines, but this is a 1st . I would hasten to recommend STOP MAKING GENERALITIES. It's thinking like that - that...

DITTO! There is a REASON that people hire professionals.

This one looks very HALFLINGER or Drafty to me. Have a client with a nice show Halflinger and honestly your little one could be his twin. They aren't call little draft horses for nothing

While normally a short-dishy fan --- that said... I LOVE YOUR HORSE! To me though doesn't look like a QH (we've a barn full of show ones) but a MORGAN... Stunning!

Think of SMS like a dance. Though more "Tango" ;) Fluid precise movements for horse and handler. As a judge I DO NOT want military-looking movements. You're to SHOW OFF your horse - and marching around stiff doesn't do that! Also - OTHER THAN 4H - most of us judges HATE the "look over the...

LOL uhmmm just wanted to make sure folks knew this ad is NOT mine. Have had a couple forum members get in touch w/me since we happen to have had a similar-sounding horse for sale. We had a 26" (2 yr old) Silver Bay Del Teras bred colt for sale. Though NO dwarfy tendencies, none in their...

<br /><br /><br /> BRAVO! There is SO MUCH panic it's crazy... though when you point out the panic and false-truths people get *crabby* and rather than admit they're getting emotional - they start attacking you saying "you must not care about your horse like they do" etc etc etc... Ignorant...

I *LIKE* seeing more professional opinions from MINI KNOWLEDGEABLE vets! See and hear too many horror stories or "old wives tales" from breeders and "old owners" alike to scare people. Thank you for the candid (albeit not looking like it's the popular) opinion!

While I don't think this is a good idea... There was a VET in a town nearby few years ago that was crossing a Belgian Stallion on Shetland mares. Yes, you heard that right. Creating his own "version" of Halflingers... Now he did this A.I. but the mares foaled out normally. The mares were all...

Really?! I had NO idea this was the case... OMG AMHR/ASPC is the same darn club (essentially). I thought (though could well be wrong) that shows like Cavalcade of Ponies, etc had AMHR and ASPC?

Grumble... As much as I LOVE hearing about all you're doing at PacCrown... it's making me SAD we can't come!

That might be a good one - though I have 3 shows in August that we HAVE to attend that might prohibit it. Have to check when the DeerPark/Clayton Fair is...

Is this Jes? If so, then yes I know you already - though not very well I'm going to look into the "hardship" show idea from below - whatcha think? Also - are you going to Belgrade? I can't make it to Kalispell though I'd LOVE to!
