  • The Paso Fino Sport Horse Is the Perfect Horse to Fill This Need
    THE PASO FINOPART S IPORT HORSE By Millie Hopkins, Professional Paso Fino Trainer and want to enjoy their kind of training – the Paso Fino Sport Horse is the perfect horse to fill this need. This is the athlete from the Paso Fino breed that yields the Without exception, when my horses pop out in this market, folks STOP, LOOK, and want to know MORE! That is very rewarding, for the breed! On my own and with a semi-retired approach since 2003, I have worked with over 30 horses and numerous clients, building toward the Sport Horse market. A Paso Fino Sport Horse should reflect the Sport Horse definition and meet the National and International Standards and requirements. Interestingly, this standard just reflects and embodies the Life, History, and the Legacy of the Paso Fino. Conformation: Sport horses should have a sloping shoulder, “turned-over” neck, and an uphill build. Conformation has direct effects on the animal’s movement and jumping ability. Movement: Although movement may vary between disciplines, most sport horses are bred for a long, athletic stride and movement that uses the whole body. The Paso Fino Corto, Largo, and Canter should have good suspension with the horse naturally reaching under his body with his hind legs. This movement makes it easier for the rider to teach the horse to engage, collect, and extend his stride, which are necessary qualities in all sport horse disciplines. Jumping Ability: Horses bred for jumping disciplines also possess good jumping form, with tight lower legs and good roundness in the top line during the jump execution.

  • Horse and Burro Management at Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge
    U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Horse and Burro Management at Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge Environmental Assessment Before Horse Gather, August 2004 September 2002 After Horse Gather, August 2005 Front Cover: The left two photographs were taken one year apart at the same site, Big Spring Creek on Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge. The first photograph was taken in August 2004 at the time of a large horse gather on Big Spring Butte which resulted in the removal of 293 horses. These horses were placed in homes through adoption. The photograph shows the extensive damage to vegetation along the ripar- ian area caused by horses. The second photo was taken one-year later (August 2005) at the same posi- tion and angle, and shows the response of vegetation from reduced grazing pressure of horses. Woody vegetation and other responses of the ecosystem will take many years for restoration from the damage. An additional photograph on the right of the page was taken in September 2002 at Big Spring Creek. The tall vegetation was protected from grazing by the cage on the left side of the photograph. Stubble height of vegetation outside the cage was 4 cm, and 35 cm inside the cage (nearly 10 times the height). The intensity of horse grazing pressure was high until the gather in late 2004. Additional photo com- parisons are available from other riparian sites. Photo credit: FWS, David N.

  • List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

  • Programs That Extend the Useful Lives of Horses
    PROGRAMS THAT EXTEND THE USEFUL LIVES OF HORSES: Supply and demand — they are the ingredients that form the foundation for near- ly all successful business models. Markets are sound and profitable when there is a healthy balance between the two. The theory holds true for the horse market as well. Often, however, owners may not be aware of the demands that exist for horses that may be “unwanted” by some, but desired by others. The purpose of this chapter is to show some of the many programs already in place by horse breed organizations and other groups, in which horses are needed by participants. From trail riding enthusiasts to horse show exhibitors, people are searching every day for horses that fit their lifestyles and interests. By understanding the activities encouraged by breed organizations, owners of some unwanted horses might find a good fit, and a good market, among people seeking horses for organized shows and rec- reational events. Following is a listing of some of the most popular programs and activities underway today and some true-life stories of unwanted horses that developed into champions. Competitive Horse Shows: Nearly all horse breed associations offer opportunities for friendly competition. Although a horse may be retired or reaching advanced years of maturity, horse shows offer outlets to help keep the horse active and involved. The registries offer several different disciplines with classes ranging from leadline to saddle seat pleasure to barrel racing. A horse owner can often find a way to keep horses involved for a long time in the variety of disciplines offered in the showing world.

  • 120-Day Mustang Challenge Faq's
    FAQ 120-Day Mustang Challenge 120-DAY MUSTANG CHALLENGE FAQ'S Where did these six mustangs come from? These horses were the offspring of wild horses managed by the Bureau of Land Management. The mothers were captured off of BLM land and taken in by Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary. The six geldings were born and raised in North Dakota on the sanctuary. Mary Behrens, in partnership with the Free Rein Foundation, has adopted the Mustangs, transported them to Huntington Beach and will jointly oversee the Mustang Challenge, with the ultimate goal of finding them loving, forever homes. Where does the Mustang come from? American mustangs are descendants of horses brought by the Spanish, beginning in the 16th century. Feral populations became established, especially in the west. These interbred to varying degrees with other breeds, for example, escaped or released ranch horses, racehorses, and other thoroughbreds. Modern populations, therefore, exhibit some variability depending on their ancestry. What are the characteristics of the American Mustang? The physical traits of wild herds can vary quite a bit, and there was a time when characteristics associated with early Spanish strains -- e.g., a short back and deep girth and dun color -- were preferred. Most are small, somewhere between 13 and 15 hands. How do Mustangs live? Mustangs live in large herds. The herd consists of one stallion, around eight females and their young, though separate herds have been known to blend when they are in danger. A female horse, or mare, and a stallion that is over six years of age lead the herd.
