  • How, What and Why to Do Things with Your American Saddlebred. Part 1
    1/1/2011 UNITED HOW, WHAT AND WHY TO DO THINGS WITH SADDLEBRED YOUR AMERICAN SADDLEBRED. PART 2. ASSOCIATION Braiding Manes & Wrapping Tails | Lynn Jarvis HOW TO … TRIM AND BRAID THE BRIDLE PATH The first question to answer is why do we trim and braid our Saddlebreds? Nowhere in the rule book (any rule book) will you read that your horse MUST be trimmed and braided, however some rule books will have rules AGAINST trimming and braiding – so read them carefully. (For example you cannot show your hunter or western horse with braids). Back in the depths of history, Saddlebreds were shown with their forelocks and the first part of their manes plaited (and left down, not rolled like we do with our riding horses and hunters). The purpose of this was simply to keep their hair from interfering with the double bridle. This subsequently developed into the bridle path being trimmed to make it easier to get the bridle on and off. As shows developed there was a natural competition between horse owners, who soon found ways to adorn their “peacocks of the show ring” – and mane and forelock braiding were introduced. Any colour is acceptable and traditionally reds and maroons dominate in the American show ring. In Australia they have a registry system where barns register their barn colours – and these are the colours their Saddlebreds show under – presumably other barns are not allowed to use their competitors’ colours. There are different ways of trimming the bridle path of the American Saddlebred Horse – one involves leaving the forelock alone, the other involves thinning the forelock (by trimming the sides off) or removing it completely.

Brussels PRINTED FOR MELINE, CANS A.ND C"., EOILEVARD DE WATERLOO, Zi. M DCCC XXXIX. MR V. un:ve PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

  • Showmanship at Halter
    SHOWMANSHIP AT HALTER Showmanship at Halter is essentially horsemanship on the ground. Where ever horses are bought or sold, a horseman attempts to fit his horse and set him up squarely on his feet and legs so that the horse can be presented to his best advantage to the perspective buyer. Therefore it is essential to understand the basic skills of fitting and showing a horse at halter. There are three aspects involved in showmanship at halter. They are: (1) Fitting the horse; (2) Training the horse; and (3) Showing or presenting the horse. I. Fitting the Horse A. Feeding – It takes a minimum of 45-60 days of feeding 10-15 lbs. of grain a day to fit a horse for halter if he is at or near his normal weight at the time that you start feeding. 1. Horses being fit for show or sale need a high quality balanced diet for maximum growth and conditioning. The average horse needs about 10% protein for maintenance. Horses being fitted should received up to 14% to maximized muscle development and improved hair coat. A mixed feed with vitamins and minerals added is recommended. Adding whole grains (such as oats) to a balanced feed will unbalanced the vitamin-mineral content in the feed and is undesirable. Fat in the form of corn oil can be added to the diet to increase the energy of the feed and add a shine to the hair coat. 2. Exercise is needed to develop muscle and maintain a healthy horse. The horse should be exercised 15 to 30 minutes per day.

    TATTLE TRAILS The Newsletter of the Harding Township/Green Village Bridle Path Association www.bridlepath.org June 2012 From the President: Well, summer is finally here – or is it?? The seasons seem to be constantly in flux, but hopefully by this time your horses have de-haired themselves and you’ve been able to get out and enjoy the sunshine with your favorite equine friend. My competitive season has started with mixed results finding us in need of some fine tuning. Fortunately, we’ve been able to practice our dressage moves in the newly enlarged sand arena at the show grounds and additional sand is coming shortly to improve the footing. The arena is now just shy of a large dressage arena (60m x 20m). Thanks to Jamie Miller for roto-tilling up some of the grass to expose the original footing. We’ll continue to make improvements as the year progresses. We’ve done a lot so far this year with more activities and improvements to come. We’ve settled on a log to be revealed shortly, had a dressage clinic with another this weekend, done lots of prep work for the Bridle Path/Crewe Hill Horse Show, and got our summer picnic in the planning stages – see the calendar of events for these dates and others later in the year. We’d love to have help putting these events on, so please let me or the event organizer know if you can help out. The Spring Valley Hounds had their hunter pace this past weekend and got rave reviews.

  • Comparison of Head Morphometric Traits Within Five Selected Performance Types of Quarter Horses(Eguus Cabullus) Redacted for Privacy
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Elana Morgana Smith for the degree of Master of Science in Animal Science Presented on October 25, 2002 Title: Comparison of Head Morphometric Traits Within Five Selected Performance Types of Quarter Horses(Eguus cabullus) Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Thomas F. Savage A study was conducted to investigate if morphometric facial measurements could be utilized to differentiate five categorical performance types of Quarter Horses. The five categories being Western, Halter, English, Reining, and Cutting. The measurements were collected from 323 registered Quarter Horses representing animals who ranged in age from one year to 30 years of age and one of three gender (Stallion, Gelding, and Mare) categories. Eight facial measurements were obtained from two geographic areas, Florida and Oregon. A correlation was performed and resulted in a reduction of the data from eight to five facial measurements, due to the presence of facial symmetry. The reduced data was subsequently analyzed by Multivariate Analysis, using the Wilks Lambda Analysis of Variance. The Main effects, age, gender, and categorical performance type were all significant (p<0.0001 to 0.00 1). Of the two-way interactions only age:gender was not significant (p>0.05) and the three- way interaction age:gender:type was also not significant (p>O.O5) Based upon the not significant (J)>O.O5) Based upon the results, the five original performance categories could be reduced to four (English, Halter, Cutting, and Western/Reining). This indicates that there are a number of similarities in facial measurements between the Western and Reining horses.
