American Connemara Pony Society Region VIII ~ Newsletter Covering: Colorado, New Mexico, Utah,Wyoming, Montana & Southern Idaho Region Chair & Editor: Susan Dudasik: [email protected] Region VIII Governor: Susan McLaughlin (970) 749-4332 [email protected] *********************************************************************** September/October 2020 #9 photo: Chris Knox from Chesterfield, ID enjoying the fall colors with one of her ponies. Can't believe we are in the final quarter of 2020. It's been a unique year to say the least. Lots of new challenges for sure. Last week we had beautiful weather and the trees were just outstanding in there fall colors. Today as I write this, there's a strong wind stripping the leaves from the trees and temperatures are predicted to drop into the low teens tomorrow night...and it's not even Halloween yet! Not ready for water tank heaters and pony blankets! Though a lot of events had been canceled, the ACPS committees have been using the time to regroup and come up with new ideas to promote our ponies and membership. There should be some new information about these things in the next magazine. They have also been working on improving and updating the webpage. Lots of new things are in the works, so stay tuned and check out the magazine. Check out our public Facebook page which can be found at: American Connemara Pony Society - Region 8 that everyone can post to. It currently has 287 followers. Not bad considering there are about 16 Region VIII members. So it's a good place to promote our ponies. Don't forget to send information for the “Meet the Members” blurb.

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.

NOTES Putting the Cart Before the Horse BARRIERS TO ENFORCING A CODE OF ETHICS FOR THOROUGHBRED AUCTIONS IN THE UNITED STATES I. INTRODUCTION In today’s thoroughbred racing world, sometimes what you see is not at all what you get. Even veteran horsemen will admit that “[t]here is a fine line between the showmanship of showing a horse at its fullest and fraud.”1 Most surprisingly, this deception often begins long before a thoroughbred has even run its first race. Sales practices that may appear fraudulent to horse racing outsiders are tolerated, or even accepted as customary practice, at thoroughbred auctions.2 For example, before being sold, horses are sometimes injected with steroids to make their chests appear stronger.3 Agents, hired to bid for prospective owners, have been caught defrauding their principals by colluding with sellers and accepting undisclosed commissions.4 Sellers even use agents to bid on their own 1 Joe Drape, No Gift Horses Here, So Look in Their Mouths, N.Y.

Dales Pony Society of America
Frutiger 45 Light - quarterly P Spotlight on thePalatino Breed Bold- Pony ITC Franklin Gothic As the Dales Pony Society celebrates its 100th anniversary in the UnitedP Kingdom, Pony Quarterly thought our readers might enjoy learning more about this rare and talented breed from across the Pond. THE ike many of the best pony breeds, the Dales Pony developed in the mountains and moors of Britain and Ireland. The nine British Native Pony breeds, romantically known as Mountain and Moorland or M&M ponies, are possessed of extraordinary strength. Fashioned by harsh and unforgiving environments, they are tough, sure-footed, with Lan inherent levelheadedness. While all of the M&M breeds, including the British Shetland, Connemara, Dartmoor, Exmoor,QUA Fell, Highland,RTER New Forest,LY and Welsh, are extraordinary animals, none are more PONYcommendable than the agile and talented Dales Pony. DALES PONY THE GREAT ALL-ROUNDER Story and photography by Kelly Davidson Dales Ponies were bred in the Yorkshire Dales of England in the 19th and early 20th centuries as pack ponies for the lead industry in the Pennine Mountains. As railways emerged and road systems improved, pack ponies were slowly phased out, but the Dales found a niche on the small farms in and around Yorkshire. With their unusual strength, and sensible natures, they offered great advantages to the small farmer and his family. In the early 1900’s, a Welsh Cob stallion named Comet was crossed to many high quality Dales mares, passing on a more free-moving shoulder and increased athleticism. The resulting stylish ponies, with their famous powerful and eye-catching trot, were unmatched in trotting races and provided a fashionable carriage drive into town for the family.
