This past July, the RFTHF hosted its first trail ride event with great success. Over 60 participants from five states enjoyed a trail ride scavenger hunt, a gait clinic presented by Erin Patterson, a cornhole tournament, and plenty of eating. The RFTHF treated participants to a full catered BBQ dinner and a pancake breakfast. Participants also received a bag filled with great items including an exclusive Trailgait t-shirt. If you missed out on the fun, the RFTHF is already working on hosting another Trailgait weekend. Watch for more information on Trailgait!

    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.

  • Pferde Heute EN Binder.Pdf
    Pferde heute 5-2006 Gait horses Iowa borders Missouri in the north; in the east it is bordered by the mighty Mississippi and the State of Illinois, in the south by Arkansas and Tennessee and in the west by Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska. This State got his name from the huge river, the Missouri, which is crossing the State from west to east and is considered its lifeline. In the language of the Native American, the Algonquin and Alkonkin, the river’s name means “the river of the big canoe” or “people of the canoe”. Other known Native American tribes in this area are the Fox, the Sac, the Osage and the Blackhawk The characteristic of this region, also known as the breadbasket of the Nation, is the prairie in the north and vast agriculture area, which grows and harvest corn, soy, wheat and hay. It is interesting to know where the name “prairie” originates from; it is from the French word “prairie” and means nothing else than pasture. This region is the main supplier of cattle and the cowboys even today do not want to miss the valuable Fox Trotter, which deliver indispensable help in their hard work. The well known and favored Ozark Plateau stretches in the south, it is a medium high mountain range with a river named Ozark River: this is the origin of the Fox Trotter. The Missouri Fox Trotter Missouri – everybody thinks of freedom, adventure, Native Americans and horses. This American State is known as the mother of the west and is geographically situated in the Central Plains, the Middle West and the Great Plains of the USA.

  • What Is the Synchrogait Test
    SynchroGait® Learn about your horse’s natural ability for different gaits Get help from the DNA-test SynchroGait® to learn about your horse’s genetic potential for gaits. The test is very easy to use and by using information from the test, you are able to plan breeding to maximize the chances of getting offspring with the gaits that you prefer. It also provides valuable information for matching the right horse to the right rider and discipline and lays the foundation for a successful relationship between rider and horse. Text: Lisa S. Andersson, Capilet Genetics and Kim Jäderkvist, Swedish University of agricultural Sciences (SLU). Background In 2012, the discovery that there is a single gene with a dramatic effect on horse locomotion was published. A change in this gene allows lateral gaits in a variety of breeds and permits horses to trot at high speed without proceeding to gallop. Due to this change, two variants of the gene exist and they were called A and C. A horse carries two copies of each gene and can thus be AA, CA or CC. It was initially shown that flying-pace has a very simple inheritance pattern in Icelandic horses and that a horse needs to be AA to perform this gait. Since then, the effect of the gene on other gaits and in other breeds has been studied extensively and the high impact on different gaiting abilities has been established. Today, anyone can test his or her horse using the DNA test SynchroGait®. The research and test have helped people working with horses worldwide both in the selection of horses for competition and breeding and to customize training schemes and adjust expectations.
