I have a 25 yr old Morgan and an 11 year old Appaloosa. My Morgan taught me how to ride again after a long hiatus to have children and my young appaloosa took over when my morgan wasn't able to carry a rider for long rides anymore. I love them both to pieces!
I have paint mare, Falabella gelding, and a miniature horse gelding who has out grown the mini 38" height limit...now he is offically a pony at 9.3hh! (and still growing!)
I have Curlies! The are wonderful all around horses, but the best part is that they are hypoallergenic for those who are allergic to regular horses.
