The FreeRepublic Saddle Club thread! - Thread SIX
See our "who's who" page! ^

*New* The FreeRepublic Saddle Club - Who's Who *pics*

This is a horse chat thread where we share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share. In the previous threads we have had a great time talking through lessons, training, horse lamenesses, illnesses and pregnancies... and always sharing pictures and stories.

I always have a link to this thread on my profile page, so if you have something to say and can't find the thread in latest posts… look for it there and wake the thread up!

I also have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and Becky pings everyone most mornings. Let Becky (Paynoattentionmanbehindthecurtain) and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list. As FreeRepublic is a political site, our politics and other issues will probably blend in…. There are many issues for horsemen that touch politics… land use, animal rights/abuse cases that make the news…. Legislation that might affect horse owners.

So... like the previous threads, this is intended as fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends. There are lots of ways of doing things and we all have our quirks, tricks and specialties that are neat to learn about.

Good Morning!! I saw your web site with your horse pictures. You sure have beautiful horses. I love the one that is running. Is that Bay?

Sorry I don't post much. I am either at work or at school it seems. Or sleeping.

Thank you, there are a couple of the pony, but I think the running horse pictures you're likely thinking of are Bay.... :~D

They were pure white when they were born! They will end up "lemon and white". It is very beautiful and highly sought after. I just went to check on them and the "lemon" patches are more visible then they were yesterday. When I bring them in this afternoon, I'll take more pics. : )

Wow, I didn't know that Bassetts came in that color. I have only seen brown and black ones.

I know they are a real mixture, the basket just contains Sassys pups! LOL She had 9! Jessie had 6, one was stillborn and one died yesterday. However, she is being a good mom/aunt and feeding some of Sassys for her!
We have lemon/Blue/ and Tri. The lemon and blue are rare.
Both moms are doing great. Dad to both litters, is cheering on from over the fence like he "did it all himself'........! LOL Male........!

The black brown and white ones are called TRI . They are the most common. Both Moms and DAD are TRI.

I LOVE those pics. You really captured them well. : )
I am getting sad now that it is Saturday and Monday is when 4 of our horses go. I know they will have a good home, in fact we wouldnt have sold them to just anybody...........but...........I will miss them so much. It will leave us with just Smokey and Sugar. Smokey is so ROUGH looking LOL He has the best temperment though and great with kids. (even though he is HUGE), Sugar has got fat. I really have to lighten up her feed. : )

Sounds like you got really good litters! Will you breed your dogs back to the same dog? (Stud?)

Well we only have one male. I dont want to be a "puppy mill breeder' the thought is awful. They have so many dogs and so many litters and the love that the dogs get is minimal if any. : ( I may breed again, if i find homes for all these pups ok, but i don't hink it will be for a while.
This is the first time my girls have been pregnant and Baxter obviously had a very good day that day! LOL

If you do go a long while between breedings, I don't know how you will live with both an intact male and two females... It's been bad enough for me to just have an intact male (dog) around. Do you keep them kenneled to separate them?

Yes, Baxter has the "maternity ward' that the horses were in when they foaled. It is about 40ftx60ft plenty for his slow attitude to life! : ) He mostly sleeps in his kennel!
