Hi! Jim Curry is breeding AMHR/ASPC. He bought Royal Splish Splash last year, I think, and has several foals hitting the ground this year. He's in Northern Ca. Don't know his website right off, but you could find his telephone number in the Judges Section of the Journal, in Area VII. Ta...

Lookin' good! Beautiful filly! Congrats. Ta, Shirlee

Nice. Nice! Always a thrill when you get to see what you actually have...and like it :-) Ta, Shirlee

Oh, WOW! What a stunner! And the mare ain't bad either. Congrats. Ta, Shirlee

Talk about action... Zow does that boy have it! Congrats. Ta, Shirlee

Congratulations! What a little doll! Gorgeous pattern. Do you think she'll gray out? I can't tell from the pictures. Congrats again. Ta, Shirlee

A pair of cutie pies. And both fillies! Congrats. Ta, Shirlee

Hi: I don't have a lot to add; loved the info. As for the negative comments...it's part of life. How many of us American Shetlands breeders have heard, "Oh, a Shetland. Those mean little things." I grit my teeth every time I hear it, but it's a fact of life. I figure somewhere, in the...

I came across the picture and I said aloud, "Oh, wow!" Beautiful colt. Even lying down. Imagine him standing up. Breathtaking. Congratulations!!! Ta, Shirlee

I'm so sorry to hear of your troubles. Getting everything in writing is crucial. Dot every i and cross every t and even put in things you don't think will ever arise -- you just never know and be safe rather than sorry. I think at this point that legal action is your only recourse. Is there...

I am green with envy --it's a filly, alive and healthy, too cute for words and pinto. What more could you ask for? None of our foals are even due until the 1st week of May so I'm doubly envious. Congratulations. She's a doll. Ta, Shirlee

2-27-08 Hi: I think the problem with wanting to raise the height of the Foundation would go away if the Foundation breeders pushed for two things: 1. No animal over 42" can receive Foundation papers -- and strip them from animals that are over 42". 2. No animal receives PERMANENT Foundation...

2-24-07 Hi Everyone: Just a reminder if you didn't know. The BOD meeting will be held next weekend. Can't remember where. Somewhere east of the Rockies for sure! This would be a good time to contact your Director to find out what is on the agenda, and/or let them know how you feel about...

Hi: Several months ago, I posted a bunch of data I'd learned about the British Isle Shetlands (the main stock that the American Shetlands are descended from -- and if you talk to certain people the only breed in our background -- and I have a bridge I'll sell you). It's documented that at...

To die for! Or maybe kill for! Just gorgeous. Tell us more about it. Ta, Shirlee

Hi: As I'm sure you know, mares never look at calendars :-). We've always used the 340 days, give or take 10 days (330-350). We've had mares foal perfectly lovely, healthy foals at 313 days and as late as 358 days. I don't know that there's a true 'average'. As someone else posted, the last...

1-20-07 Hi: The bigger Mini halters fit our weanlings and yearlings. Check out Ozark Mountain, think their website is minitack.com. They carry a lot of Shetland items and we've always found them very easy to work with. On the horse size look at the ones for 'sucklings' -- if you can find...

1-13-07 Hi! Beautiful animals! Loved the new young stallion -- stunning! Good luck! Ta, Shirlee

1-12-7 Hi Belinda: Interesting that your information on transfers disagrees with what my Director told me and she had gotten hers from the President! You're leaping to conclusions that I'm being hard on the office. Yes, I'm being hard -- on whoever is not getting the correct word out to the...

1-11-07 Hi Ashley: You've asked a very interesting question. It was/is my understanding that only new registrations are to have pictures, yet in recent Journals I've seen the words "and Transfers" added here and there. I asked one of my Directors about it and she called the President and he...
