I have looked over the AMHA rulebook for hunter and jumper show rules. Wanted to get some advise from people who have actually shown in these though. I have a gelding that I would like to show in hunter and/or jumper. Is one easier or less complicated for me as a handler? I have been...

I am going to a show at the end of August. I am taking 4, possibly 5. I'm 17 and do all the clipping and grooming myself. This will be my second show, but my first show I only took one horse so this is a big step up! I have several questions for you experienced show people! Obviously, I am...

I am taking several of my minis to the ky state fair to show this year in August. This will only be my second show. I'm trying to figure out who is the best one or couple to show in multi color. I have a weanling colt, yearling colt, 7 year old mare and 5 year old mare. I put pictures below...

A mare I bought that had been shown for several years has a section of her bottom eyelid missing. Would that prevent me from showing her or get points taken away for that? I don't know what happened but her eye is great and she has no vision problems. She's built great and completely halter...

I am taking in on trade a coming 19 year old stallion (birthdate is in July). He was shown when younger and shown as recently as 2011 as a 17 year old and placed well. He is very pretty and doesn't act like an old horse. Would I be crazy to show him at 19 or even older? He also has a beautiful...

What does everyone think of my two mares? Do they look reasonably close? The pictures are from a few days ago. Heidi (black and white) was 290 days in the pictures. Ellie (silver dapple) was 295 days in the pictures. I have noticed a large difference in the last few weeks. I want to hear...

I am looking for a mini that has potential for single pleasure. I have found one I like. The pics are of him all natural. He hasn't had any halter or driving training or action devices on. The pics are blurry because I pulled them from a video but you can still get an idea of his reach and...

I have two mares due fairly soon. I have dates of when they were hand bred. One will be 300 days on February 13th and the other on the 18th. Both mares have always been field bred so this is the first time they have been hand bred. Neither of the previous owners know how long they carry or how...
