You'd bring him back......Remember, Happy has a last name and it's HOOLIGAN!Dang it Carin...... If you don'y quit flashing those pictures of Happy, I am going to have to come and steal him!!!!
Jason,Well, like a few have posted here, most ASPC/AMHR are classic/foundation ponies. There are a few exceptions, like Trace said, some of the Michagan lines, the Ramble Ridge lines are thowing the moderns that are small enough to be double registered. Plus, the Dun-Haven Drummer Boy lines are starting to get small enough, course there are three main breeders with that line that is small, Larry Parnell, the Robert Family Ponies, and myself.But your main question was, what is the difference between the moderns and the classics. The classics are pretty then the modern, nicer heads, nicer bodies, and better legs. The moderns usually have longer, more upright necks which will inable them to have the nice head sets. The biggest difference is naturally, movement. The moderns have a higher trot than the classics as well.

Wow..now make an "a" size version of him and that would be my dream horse.On top of being a nice pony, he is small enough to be hardshipped into the AMHR
Sandra,I am wanting to get started in the AMHR/Shetlands. One big problem I am having is I don't know the difference between the Classic or the Modern Shetland. If anybody could tell me I would really appreciate it.
