RE: [RC] Advice on a stallion wanted - grannynhorses

Well, considering that we are now in times difficult enough that

people are giving away good horses, turning them loose and even
putting them to sleep, why, I wonder would you want to BREED another
one?  

Ridecamp has had several posts of late from those wanting to find
homes for good horses.  It would be much more productive to find a
horse that needs a home that already posessed the qualities you are
looking for rather than risk another horse to an uncertain future.

I am planning on breeding my mare next year for a baby to replace my

gelding

when he gets older. I would love some recommendations from the

knowledgeable

people on ridecamp. First about my mare, she is a 15.1 Morab mare

(50/50),

nice heavy bone, big feet, well balanced, the only real downsides to

her are

she has a thick cresty neck and a standoffish personality. I will

get a grey

no matter what from her so color of the stallion isn't an issue.

What I

would like is a stallion that tends to throw a very nice, friendly
personality, good bone and feet, preferably around 15 hands. I want

a do

everything horse so he must be well balanced, having competed in a
"physical" discipline is a must, endurance is an added bonus. I am

not a big

fan of the overly bred halter lines. I will be more impressed if I

see a

picture of him being ridden by the family down the trail than all

the

ribbons in the world. He must be intelligent and come from

intelligent

horses; I can't abide a stupid animal. At this point I am thinking

Shagya

Arab or perhaps some old Polish bloodlines but that's where my

expertise

ends. Any stallion suggestions? Those not wanting to clog the list

can email

me privately at jspoone @ magickmorning.com . Oh we're located in

Michigan

but AI is a possibility for us. 

Thanks.
