How many of you have Appaloosa's??

[pipgibson]

Just wondered how many people have Appy's.

Mine is in the picture on the left, We were at our first show and we came 3rd!!! I was really chuffed.

I will post some more piccies soon.

Lets have a look at your lovely spotties.

I have a partbred. He is a blanket spot palamino but because he is so pale his spots completely disappear in winter. That's him on my avatar. He is 28 and retired but we still have lots of fun together

Well done for being placed at your first show !!

This is Taz on the day I bought him. He's only 3 & I have read that spots sometimes disappear/fade with age, I hope Taz's spots stay!

(I'm posting as an honourary spottie owner as I love them, have always wanted one, but seem to be wooed by bays and blacks who 'desired colour' to go with my dark bay!

I've got a black/white blanket spot named Texas. He's in Full House magazine on thursday as he's rather a special boy!

My old staff horse was an appy!! His name was Red. God he was the best horse!! He got sold to Jo up in Leister he would be over 20 now if he's still alive!! God love him! Will try and find a link to he and I on a holiday website ;D

hopefully that should work.. I was 17 and the beach in the background is where we used to trek from.

This Paddy who sadly died of a heart attack at the age of 12 last Feb. He was a snowflake bay so you can't see his spots that well.

Sandellfarm your horse was lovely.

Any more peeps out there who have appy's???

There must be some more.

I have an appy X his dam was a 14.2 skewbald 1/4 arab thats all i know. We got him as a two year old he was going for meat (his 1/2 brothers did we could only have one!) he was in terrible condition, rain scald all along his back, all his ribs showing through a thick winter coat, and his mane had "been pulled for us to tidy it up" you could see the blood in his mane where handfulls must have been ripped out!!!!! It was months before you could brush his mane without him flinching. But that was 20 yrs ago and he is still here enjoying thekind of life he should have had to start with! He goes out about 3 or 4 times a week and gives his rider a few hair raising monents, but put a child on him and hes a darling!!

My horse Texas has his own website (its just been revamped) and is on line www.texashighway.co.uk thees a lovely photo of him on there, as he is rather handsome lol!

Oh wonderful photo, where were you? Is that that naughty pony that left me in a ditch????How is she doing, your little looney?
I'm bet you are glad you didn't buy Paddy...what a shock that was I can tell you.
See "my" new ride on thread; Rode my new horse today. I am only 2 weeks into this partnership so early days yet. He is a bit looney too.
