Love that last photo. I can't see Saddlebred in her at all.

Here is my Dutch WB / Hanoverian / ASB mare named Amirah. AKA my dream dressage horse.She is 4 years old, I just broke her this spring, and she is doing great!!

She just moves like a dream.

She has a very puppy dog personality, just a ham.

I love her.

Thank you!

She is my little chunky-monkey

Her sire is a Saddlebred, but he is more of a old type. He is the palomino, from the Wing Commander line.

She definitely looks more Warmbloody, but when she gets exited, her ASB comes out! LOL

Okay okay. This is a fairly old post and I did post pics of my new guy on a separate thread, but...I'm just so excited and so wanted to post on here.

I've been looking for the perfect horse (for me and what I'm looking for) for a while now. The last time I owned a biggie was about 12 years ago. I boarded both thoroughbreds (a hunter and a jumper) at a fancy A Circuit barn

So I just showed up, rode, and left. Now that I'm older, wiser, and have a ton of practical experience caring for horses (big and small
default_wink.png
), I'm ready to welcome a forever big horse in our lives. This is my 3 year old, 16.1h, OTTB Barrick! (Many more pics to come, once he arrives on Saturday

)

Beautiful horses!

We have a guest with us right now and her name is trinity. We are fostering her for ACE rescue here in Ohio. With some good feed and TLC I think she will be beautiful. Shes a yearling grade paint filly. Shes blind in one eye and has a stifle injury and needs lots of weight. We are hoping shes not bred.

I have four big horses, (all now completely owned and dependent by/on me as my parents are divorcing and would have sold them all), all of which I don't know what I'd do without. I love minis but these four hold a special place in my heart.

Boogie, 26 year old Quarter Horse gelding that I rescued early this spring.

SpiritandBoogie9-1-09046.jpg


Stormy, 9 year old Straight Egyptian Arabian mare that I've had since she was 3 days old. She's been trail ridden alot.

Shadow, 6 yr. old Morgan gelding, he's my main trail horse right now and he is a VERY experienced trail horse at that.

Shadow9-8-09027.jpg


Cody, 3 yr. old Paint BS gelding, he'll be one of my main trail horses, I'd also like to do some gaming with him.

OMG I love that black foal !!!!!
 
Oh I love those Percherons!! Wow!! I would have more clydes if I could but Barney will have to be the only one for a while. He has to teach me to drive first! lol
 
I used to have a pastureful of big horses, and a mini for a pet....well, now I only have two big horses, and a pastureful of minis! (well, 5, 2 mini geldings, one black, one grullo, and 3 mini donkeys). The two big ones we have are the two I'm keeping...we've sold the rest through the past few years.

I have Blue, (Forever In Bluejean, 1998 AQHA IBHA NFQHA grulla mare, she's had 3 foals (all grulla), but hasn't been bred for the past few years. And I have my Arabian mare Kissy (TA Kiss Afire), who is 24, who I got when she was just a year and a half old. So we've grown up together, and she'll be here until she takes her last breath.

Both are geldings. I have been riding Art a little but they are much better driving.

Neat to see all the "big" horses
default_smile.png


I'll start with my first horse, the namesake for my ranch
default_smile.png
Cheyenne Autumn, 16hh 1990 TB gelding. We've done a lot together: dressage, h/j, trail, team sorting, gymkhana, ect. I don't ride him that much now, too busy with the greener horses, but I always love hopping on him now and then
default_smile.png
He's my horsey soul mate, and I've had him since Feb 8, 1997

Calista (CheyAuts Starlit Firefly) is my 13.3hh 2005 Arabian Pony mare (Arab ponies are pony sized and 25%-100% arab... obviously she's not 100% lol). She is green but a good trail horse. We ride english, have gone to a couple shows. Just started "jumping" (walked and trotted (not even jumped) over two tiny cross rails). I plan to do h/j with her (that's pretty much all we have here in terms of jumping at the more "schooling" type shows, and I just show for fun).

Summer (Imagine That) is my 14hh 2001 Welsh Cob/Haflinger mare. She is my future eventer, and she is also an AWESOME trail horse (my hubby, who doesn't know how to ride and is scared to, can ride on trails with her no problem!)

Ren (Renaissance Spring, or JC name Count The Copper) is a 16.1hh 1982 TB gelding. He was my best friend's horse and they did h/j mainly (also trail riding and whatever else Cheyenne and I were trying lol) and he came to live with me when she could no longer keep horses. He's retired, although now and then she takes him on an easy trail ride when she can.

Harley (FanIcons Costa A Plenty) is a 13hh 2004 Fell gelding. I ride and drive him. Mainly trail rides, although plans to teach him to jump, but our main thing is Combined Driving.

River (Mysti River Gold) is a 2008 Welara filly. Her dam is a 15h Arabian mare and her sire is the 13h buckskin Welsh stallion, Rocko's Gold. I've wanted a AHA Half Arab by Rocko and so when I found her I just HAD to have her
default_smile.png
We'll see what the future holds as far as what we'll do, but I'm an english rider so it'll be something english!

Maverick (AHR name pending but it's Maximillion something) is a 2008 Haflinger colt. His breeder expects him to mature around 14h. Will likely have him broke to drive and I'll break him to ride. Haffies are hubby's favorite non-mini breed, so maybe he'll ride or drive him? We'll see, right now hubby's comfort doesn't pass 38" haha ;)

Harrison Fjord (Karl Johan) is a 2004 Norwegian Fjord gelding. I just got him a couple weeks ago, he's somewhere around 14h but I lost my horse measuring stick
default_sad.png
He rides and drives, but I haven't driven him yet. He's green to ride, so we'll see which direction we go. Trail riding for sure, maybe dressage and/or jumping. And combined driving of course
default_smile.png
I did re-do his mane so the black is longer (he came to me with it even) but these photos are from before I did that.
