Tell me about your horses!
I love talking horses, so let's see/hear about yours!
I've got one horse at the moment, and OTTB, 17hh tall moose. Sweetest guy in the world, I love him to bits.
I did have a five year old project mare, I loved her to bits. Smart as a whip and gorgeous. I used to love to watch her move. I took that mare from unhandleable to greenbroke, calm, even tempered, and her worst spook was a hop to the side and a snort.

Not an owner at the moment, does leasing count? My leasee is a 16.2 chestnut KWPN (he's actually my trainers former Grand Prix jumper) that takes a 60 inch girth and a size 3 shoe . I refer to him as the "chestnut beastie." He is the laziest sack of lard, but if you drive him forward and get him to frame it's like this incredible motor connects through the back end, I've never felt anything like it (then again I've never gotten to ride a horse of his caliber before either).
I love OTTBs (and non OT TBs), I'm trying to talk the hubby into getting me one when we move to VA. Hopefully I'll finally get him to learn to ride too, although he has this annoying insistence on riding western, and tells me that he thinks he needs a mustang.

Re: Tell me about your horses!
I wish I had more pics, but looks like I don't have any on this computer of our rockies... But here's a pic of my all time favorite horse, Micky (RIP)
Dopiest horse EVER!!! He used to clip the back of my heel every single day. Loved that dude.
And here's Lily, she was a big sweetie pie

Unfortunately I don't have any pictures at the moment, but I recently bought myself a registered AQHA buckskin colt. Pretty good bloodlines from the Peppy San Badger and Skipper W lines. Hopefully he will be a great cutting horse (and possibly a stud) if he turns out like I hope he will. I am boarding him at the family farm for the time being. Going to visit him this weekend so I will snap a couple shots. Still has his colt coat on as he is only 3.5 months old (born July 18th), so I can't wait to see what he looks like come spring.
I also have a 15 year old bay gelding. Not papered, but a good ranch horse none the less. I miss my Sorrel mare, she passed 6 years ago.
Stephanie, that buckskin filly of your sister's is an absolutely stunning horse. And your paint looks like she is doing well for 25 years old! Nothing quite like the bond between you and your horse.

that's sad about your sorrel. I'm not looking forward to the day my mare passes. It will be awful, but I've had her long enough to know it could happen any day
And yes, I love that filly! She's just gorgeous. Crazy enough Skipper W is in her blood lines too! She's a good show, trail, all around horse, and she likes to run The trainer would not be impressed about the running part, lol
As for my mare, the bond really is amazing! She will do almost anything for me, and she's a champ. We had a lot of fun together this summer. We just went on a 25 mile trail ride to a little hole in the wall bar, lol

Re: Tell me about your horses!
I have an AQHA gelding (Rojo) out of Peppy San Badger too. He did not make it as a cutting horse but went thru reining training several years ago and still knows the moves. He is dead broke and such a sweet heart, just the perfect horse for this old girl.

I have too many for pictures lol, here is the list :
Paint Gelding : Cody (20yrs)
Appy/QH Broodmare Mare: Whitefoot (21yrs)
Bay QH Gelding: Pocos (9yrs)
Gray QH: Phillip (10yrs)
Male Donkey : Jackson(12 yrs)
Molly Mule : Ella (8 mths)
I Love them all but Cody has my heart...he was my first horse and even though he is an ornery old fool I could not imagine life without him specially after the colic scare we had 2 years ago. He has taught me a lot of patience and perseverance in the saddle. And without him I would not have gotten in to rehabilitating horses.
