Of course we wanted him to grow up looking like that. But the spots spread out with more white between them than even that Dutch horse. He had a finer throat latch and neck than that and a slightly longer head. But knapstruppers are from draft horses.
Oh ok, They do change as they grow. that mule looks like he's from Mexico or Spain, their language is in Spanish or something like that, will check again and try to find out a little more about him.
Horses don't always change. My paint's registration shows the same markings as an adult as he had as a colt. They just got bigger. I wonder what registrations do about the changes. They are supposed to be a way to identify the animal.
True I guess just the real rare ones, like the app colt and some others. I wonder too how they identify must have another way they do it. Check this one out. American Saddlebred stallion. What's your favorite breed? I Love the Tennessee Walkers, Quarter horses, Appolossas, Mules, Donkeys, etc. I guess I just love all of them, but the first one is my favorite.
I have never seen those Russian(?) horses. They are not all that color. I boarded at a saddlbred training barn for years but never owned one until I left (much to the chagrin of the barn owner). I fell in love with a beautiful bay saddlebred colt born at the barn. The owner later decided she didn't want it and sold it to me for a good price at 3 yo. He died of a heart attack when he was 23. His mother did too. I bought that Arab I talked about first which I then sold to a woman who would become a great friend, then I got a big red walking horse. He died at 32. I bought a few minis and ponies. I trained them to climb a ramp into my capped truck and took them to birthday parties and festivals so kids could have a pony 'of their own' to ride. We did a couple of parades with them too. And nursing homes. I got a black and white paint, like the Cisco Kid's. My mentally challenged daughter ground trained him herself with the help of Parelli dvd's. I worked for 9 years at a Dutch warmblood barn. Just moving horses, and cleaning a fancy barn. Not training. I don't have a favorite breed although pix of Gypsy Vanners turned my head. But, So did horse trailers. My husband said I had trailer envy. Did you have horses?

You stayed busy over the years I see. It's hard to have a favorite because when you get around new ones, they sometimes win your heart. Yes, I always had horses and ponies when I was a kid, Daddy always keep some, and he worked Granddaddy's mules, plowing his fields and his own horses plowing his own, hunting, and riding all his life. So I was taught a little at a young age about caring and riding. Nice for your daughter to get to train that Cisco Kids, look a like horse. That was a paint horse he rode, right? Marie and I rented from a woman, who had 19 horses, which we took care of for a cut rent price. Lots of horse and colt stories about that one. So your husband said you have trailer envy?
Horse is probably sayin' Ewwwwwww, I'm not gonna drink out of this trough after you put your face in it!
