Pretty horses! I miss the time I spent during my senior year in high school volunteering at a horse farm. Most of the horses on property (including the minis) were Appaloosas (with mostly 1/2 Arabian bloodlines).

The black is really gorgous too, it is just hard to see her in the other picture. She’s gonna be a looker…can’t wait to get started with her training and see what she can do. this picture gives you a better idea of how she looks. She still has a young horse build, meaning no muscles built up from being worked, but when she does, oh man is she gonna be something to see. Both will actually.
Kyrin
omg Kyrin I am so excited for you!!!!!!!!!!
Wish I was there ;)))))*hugs*
I am there in herat lol
they are gorgeous, they are lucky to have you from a mommie :)))what name you give a horse is reflected in thier personalities 🙂
American Indian told me. So what you name them may be what you get. 🙂
“Cowboy” when I got him I hated that name silly name for a horse! I called him “Dragon” he was always draggin his butt ( slowwwwww) or trying to fly (bucking) after a few months of this bad behavior I went back to “Cowboy” to which he answers and comes when I call.
Now the mare we got she had some serious issues, she was a WITCH! when it came to loading in the trailer or doing just about anything, she ran me over and stepped on my knee once. Would not take the bit with out a battle of rearing and bolting, she snapped two halters in a month, at the vet she reared caught the bar on the back door of the trailer and bent it flat.
So after 5 hours at 1:00 in the morning we couldn’t get her loaded in the trailer. I was loosing my temper and getting more and more angry I had the whip in my hand and was about to start wailing on her. I dropped the whip got in the cab of my truck took my bible off the dash and prayed! I said Lord give me Patience, I swear! I heard the voice of God say I already have!! I got out of the truck and just leaned on her very hot sweaty trembling body and told her to please get in the trailer or I was going to tie her in the arena and come back tomorrow so that I didn’t hurt her. So one last time I asked her to get in the trailer and she did!!! On the drive home I told my husband her name was “Patience” and that she would need lot’s of that while we where working with her. Which she does! she has been one flaky horse. However June makes 2 years and I have been working her once a week since we met with a trainer that told us she was hopeless and get rid of her. I have her now taking the bit with out a battle and she now is reining fairly well, she also will move into a canter now with out a freak out first. She also loads right up now. She’s tied during feeding because she bolts her feed and then goes for my old boys feed too! but her manners have improved and she also has learned to stand by her feed bucket and wait till I put the feed down, she used to knock the bucket out of my hand and of course feed would go everywhere. I used to have to stand there with a lunging whip just to feed now I can point to the bucket and she calmly stands there.
Long point here…
Names are very powerful, and I have always felt names are very important, so make sure that you pick a name that you feel the horse can handle. 🙂They are beautiful Kyrin!
😀 I can’t wait to see more pictures of them in the future to see how they turned out after your training with them.
You are so lucky!
