R3, You have brought up a very good point that I don't think most people understand. I've highlighted it below because I think you explained very well.

I realize this, and this situation is particularly unfortunate. I guess I would say it isn't unprecedented as AMHA did this with the Oversise breeding stock. And sometimes change, even for the better, is painful. Yes, the height was arbitrarily chosen back in the day. But that doesn't mean...

Ok, I've slept on this which I always find helpful. For those that don't know me, Mike and I raise ASPC and ASPC/AMHR horses that we show and promote (and win on the National level in halter and driving) in both ASPC and AMHR. We usually have about 8 foals a year, so I would consider us a...

Yeah, I know. I had to kick myself for even thinking about the addition of more classes. LOL!

Pros: Our horses would be measured like all equine including the ASPC registry. This is a benefit regarding our overseas markets as well. Cons: The biggest negative I see is the confusion of how "grandfathered" horses are measured and the size differences that will be present in the show...

Way to go, Devon!!! Both boys look great! I've always known you and Eli were going to be a dynamite team!!

I'm getting excited about this show, too!! Mike, Isabella, and I are making the trip and planning to have lots of fun with friends all weekend. We are especially looking forward to the Luau Party after the sale! We will have 3 horses there showing and 3 in the sale.

Here is the information from the Classic Division for Precision Driving as found in the 2008 Rulebook on pages 215 and 216.

Hi Everyone, I wanted to let everyone know that information for the 2010 shows hosted by the Miniature Horse and Pony Breeders of Oklahoma is now on our website! MHPBO 2010 Shows Our show dates are as follows: April 23-25 May 14-16 June 25-27 July 16-18 Please see the website for the...

You are correct in your findings. This mare cannot be registered. What is a shame is that the owner at the time of foaling did not do their paperwork. I've run into this several times myself.

You are welcome, John! Vicky is one of my favorites by Red Alert. I hope you continue to enjoy her and maybe we can use her again for Get of Sire next year!

I haven't bought or sold in utero, and I have no plans to. I have a waitlist for my double registered foals, and have some specific requests of Horse A x Horse B. I don't let those specific requests guide my program, but often they are crosses I have planned anyway. I want my customers to be...

We have two Anatolian Shepherds and LOVE them. We looked at both Great Pyr and the Anatolians; really just luck that we ended up with the Anatolians. We have been super happy with them. They do a GREAT job with coyotes and this morning even had a ~40-50 lb animal trapped on top of a round...

New this year at the 2010 Shetland Congress will be a Stallion Avenue! This is the place to bring out accomplished stallions for attendees to see "in the flesh". For more information and to nominate your stallion for one of the 18 spots available, please see the attached file. The file should...

Congratulations on all your Nationals' experiences, Devon! Hope we see you again next year!

This is one of my personal favorite face markings on my stallion, B&L's Rock E Good Man Charlie. He is furry and happy in this picture. He is Sabino and Splash.

I'm with Michelle. We have a letter writer with too much time on his/her hands, and obviously looking for trouble. I can't help but think it is because Belinda is a director that she is being attacked which is sad because our organization needs more people like her in it!! Thank you for the...

Bright is such a pretty buckskin! He is a pretty moving pony, and I absolutely LOVE his head. Mike and I are also excited to have recently acquired one of his offspring, Cross Country Enchanted, a 2009 filly!!!! She looks really nice trotting around at my house.

Congratulations to you and your pretty boy! I think those AOTE classes are quite an accomplishment.
