    Breed - Connemara

    Colour - Chocolate dun

    Height - 14.1hh

    Discipline - We do showing and dabble in dressage

    Quirks - Chews everything - he's an absolute nightmare!

    Cutest thing - He's just cute in general - I find it hilarious when he nips me or grabs my coat or something and I turn around to glare at him and he looks behind him as if to say "it wasn't me, it was the wall!"

    Favourite saddle brand - I like both my saddles (Heritage and Olney - Olney closed down years ago and my Heritage saddle is a discontinued style.) The really old Wintecs were comfy - the new ones are horrid.

    Horse's favourite food - anything that's not nailed down

    Jump height - About 2 foot on a very good day.

    Crazy barn drama - No. I stay out of it - I go to the yard to ride and see my pony, not to gossip about other liveries, most of which are middle aged.

    I couldn't be called a teen, but anyway...

    Horses breed? 3/4 Hannovarian gelding and Shetland x mare

    Color? Chestnut, both of them

    Height? 15.3 and 11.3

    Disipline? The horse is getting on so he's just a happy hacker now, but used to do dressage. The pony does carriage driving

    Cutest thing about your horse? He doesn't do cute, he's a warmblood y'know. Cute is beneath him!

    What is your favorite saddle brand? Loved the Dever that came with the horse, most comfortable saddle ever, but didn't fit him. Got a Thorogood now, he loves it, I hate it :(

    Horses favorite food? mints, and it's priceless watching them eat a french loaf!

    If you jump, how high? Jump?!!! Ha. He might hop over 6" if he's personally introduced to both sides of it and assured that there isn't a dragon under it. Otherwise, forget it! As for the mare, she probably would, but it isn't really to be encouraged in a driving pony!

    Do you have crazy barn drama? We keep them at home, so no dramas involving other people, but the pair of them are enough to put grey hairs on us. The gelding has definite ideas about what should be, anything different is designated Wrong. The latest thing that is Wrong is a small hay bale, left at hte side of a bridlepath. We were on our way home after a hack, and I wasn't really paying much attention (I mean, you don't expect a horse to take fright at a hay bale!), and suddenly discovered we were moving at a very smart trot along the wrong path. It took me 5 goes to get him to walk past it without making a fuss... idiot horse, no idea what he thought it was going to do to him!

    Breed: Canadian!

    Colour: Black/bay.

    Discipline: I am currently just doing basic w/t/c flatwork training as he's very green and came with quite a few bad habits. I plan on focusing on jumping and dressage, and I think he will make a pretty good barrel racer :)

    Quirks: Everything just has to be his idea. He will do what I ask as long as I make him think it was all his idea lol! He tends to get lazy when he's nervous and he super smart so he likes to see what he can get away with.

    Cutest thing: The look he gets when he sees something new is the cutest thing! Its almost like he cocks his head to the side like a dog <3

    Favourite saddle brand: I like wintec, stuuben anddd pesoa.. I don't have a lot of experience with western brands

    Horses favourite food: he just loves strawberry kiwi juice haha :) i don't give him many treats because he has a tendency to be nippy

    I jump around 2'3-3'. I free jump my gelding up to 3'3 and I jump him over little x-rails as he's just learning.

    My barns really great so I actually don't have any good drama stories haha :)

    There is this girl at our barn, thinks she is perfect,thinks she can run the place switches horses because they do something wrong or she just gets tired of them one time at a show she was riding a pony and he had came from Virginia and had not been ridden in 3 YEARS well we had him entered in a 2,6 class and last minute entered 2,9 well she didn't place good in either class the 2,9 he was just to tired and 2,6 the judge said she had seen the same pony before and hated him because he was a terrible horse. so she just stopped riding him after that show and never rode him again and she came back and rides shade the horse i jump on, she says he is very bad and sometimes annoying which i do agree he can be sometimes but every horse has their moments, but when i get on i have so much fun! but main thing she thinks she can just waltz in here and rule the place! it annoys everyone at our barn and our trainer.
