Re: Getting to Know You

My name is Ashlynne and I'm 22 years old. I have always wanted a horse since I was riding the ponies at the fair...I remember nagging my parents every year for one and their answer was always "when you get a job" And I did get a job, and bought my first horse last year...he was 3 years old and never been ridden. Everyone called me crazy for buying him, He was a blue roan gelding draft pony and his name was Little Boy Blue...I was the first person to ride him and saddle him, lunge him, bathe, and I was also the first person to get dragged through the arena at the first attempt at lunging. lol He was the smartest horse ever and in 6 months we were riding down trails and doing very light jumps, I was even teaching him to bow...Sadly I had to give away my dream horse because I couldn't afford him and ran out of time working on the house....He is now making a little 10 year old girl happy and I'm happy because when I see her...all I see is me. I get to go over there and see my first horse and teach the young me everything I didn't know when I was 10 :)

As of now I don't want another horse, because I know no other horse could fill them big shoes.

Hi all! I'm brand spanking new here! I just opened an account this Sunday at the urging of some friends :) Some people may know me/see me in other places under the alias of Tazzie/Tazziedragon. I'm frequently on such places as The Horse Forum as well as one other equine game. My name is Katie, and I'm a 28 married woman of 2 toddlers (2 year old boy and 1 year old girl). I happily live with my husband, 2 children, 2 dogs, 2 guinea pigs and 1 cat in a home in Northern Kentucky. I have a wonderful little mare boarded at a friends barn :)

Written In The Stars aka Izzie is a 5 year old registered Half Arabian mare (dam is a registered Paint). We bought her as a yearling, and I started her entirely on my own. This was our first year showing together, and we have exceeded my expectations! We mostly do just the fair circuit because I'm in a Kentucky Incentive Fund, but we did compete in our very first dressage show on the 9th :) Took 7th out of 10 in Training 1 with a 58.043% and 2nd out of 7 in Training Level 2 with a 63.651%. Considering our only goal was to NOT leave the dressage ring during the test, I'd say we did pretty well! Below are a couple of pictures of us :)

And she is the reason I'm focusing on trying to breed Pintabians :)

Hey everyone! I'm new here as well. :) My name is Mikayla, I'm 19 and I live in Ontario, Canada. I'll be heading to university next year to get started on my Bachelor's of Science in Biology, with an aim to study further in either marine biology or vet school :)
I'm a bit of a crazy animal lady. My horde currently consists of a horse, 2 cats, 3 hermit crabs, a common pleco, guppies, assassin snails and an African dwarf frog. There are a few other species I'd like to venture into, but I don't have space at the moment :lol:

My farm is DELTARIDER. I got the name from my Quarter horse mare Delta. She's 5 years old, and definitely lives up to the mare personality hype :lol: I'll see if I can hunt down a recent picture of her to show off :)

Right now my goal is to breed Clydesdales and Percherons (the latter of which I've learned is quite a challenge to line up :P), before maybe branching off into some of their offshoots :)

I realised I didn't get around to posting in this thread :x I'm Odeon, I'm a 24 year old Equine Science graduate from Australia, currently stay-at-home mumming. In real life, I breed Gypsy Cobs. Our foundation broodmare is due to foal at the end of October. She's currently in foal to Jango Dancer of Brackenhill, an imported homozygous W20 stallion with Frainey, Lob and Sids Good Stallion breeding. This is my big baby:

We also rescued a cute-as-poop Shetland mare recently, who delights in being the biggest, bossiest girl in the paddock, despite her size.

I'm aiming on breeding Gypsy Cobs in HWO. Currently working on getting some nice feathered Shires before I move onto Clydesdales to finally get there.

Hi! I am also new here, just started this weekend. My name is Carly, I'm 22 from Wisconsin. I am recently engaged to my video game obsessed fiance, we live with our 1 cat, 4 guinea pigs, betta fish and pleco. I lease a horse 13 year old morgan gelding, Gladiator, he is a fat, sassy, piece of work that has done very well putting up with me this past year.

I work full time as an agent support rep for an insurance company. Even if that sounds boring, it is actually really fun and I thoroughly enjoy it! Up until early last year I was going to school to get a biology degree, but dropped out because I really suck at school! Now I make enough to support my horse habit and I am thoroughly happy in life!

Here's my glorious fart horse. We ride mainly dressage, though he is very much a saddleseat horse that has no idea what he's doing in the sandbox

Oh wow! Hey there. I was wondering why that username sounded so familiar. Love your Storm, she is one heck of a mare. Your colt, Dune, has to be one of the nicest dilutes in this hemisphere too, I think. I'm getting pretty excited for our Jango baby now, I felt so lucky to get the chance to send Aglish to him - I don't think Jango has had a purebred foal outside of Geraldine's mares in the past 4-5 years?
