Welcome to Golden Lotus Stables II


Welcome to my farm, where I breed Budyonny and Russian Don horses. I specialize my horses in racing disciplines.Also check out Golden Lotus Stables as a secondary player, where I breed Akhal-Tekes and in time will add Orlov Trotters to my collection of Russian horse breeds.


✵Russian Don

Related image


The first type of Don horse, generally called the "Old Don," evolved from semi-feral Russian steppe horses and Oriental horse breeds such as the Karabakh horse, Turkmenian, and Arabian that were brought to Russia as a product of Cossack raids. The Old Don was a medium-sized, agile horse with immense endurance; a result of the survival-of-the-fittest selection methods that guided the development of many Russian breeds. This hardy horse was used as the foundation for the current Russian Don, and was also used to improve the Orlov, Orlov-Rostopchin, and Thoroughbred breeds. Cossack cavalry mounted on the Old Don horses were instrumental in the destruction of Napoleon's Russian campaign, and the horses were important in proving the supremacy of Cossack cavalry over their European counterparts.[2]


The Don usually stands 15.1 to 15.3 hands (61 to 63 inches, 155 to 160 cm), and may be bay, black, gray or chestnut.[1] They have a clean head with a straight or dished profile, well set onto a well-formed neck, high withers, and a wide, deep chest. Their shoulders can be straight, limiting the length of their stride, but are often well-formed. The back is long and straight, flowing into a croup that is long and sloping. The legs are long, well-muscled, and clean with broad joints, strong tendons, and tough hooves.[1][2]

GOALS


Currently all of my horses are work in progress, lots are crosses and aren't very appealing, I will refine my line with some Akhal-Teke blood of mine


Budyonny horses, focus mainly the horse type very light to medium light built  no pony type bodies. I will be focusing my breed in all racing disciplines.
