Hey everyone,
Just wanted to start a chat to see what everyones favorite horses are in game here (or in person).
I personally decided to start raising quarter horses on the site because I liked the art and color options for them.

Mine are Morgans because I love them in real life! There was an amazing breeding herd at my college and I miss them dearly (luckily I graduated before the program dwindled, still wish I could have owned one :( )

That's super cool Turn.
I cannot say I have a favorite breed in real life just yet as I have not had the chance to meet many horses in person. A friend on mine kept mini horses as well as one retired Thoroughbred and Appaloosa (she may have been Grade).
I also remember a horse that a family friend of mine had when I was growing up but I have no idea what kind of horse he was as he was just a bay colored horse. I don't think he was a morgan though I don't have the expertise to know.
I kind of also picked quarter horses because I was thinking 3-5 years from now that that may be the kind of horse I own but cannot say as I haven't started my lessons just yet.

IRL my favorite breeds are trotters, especially Orlov Trotters, but since there is no trotters here, I've gone for the other main racing breed: thoroughbreds!
Oh Orlov Trotters do look quite beautiful and strong. I see a lot of examples online of grey Orlov Trotters. Do they always come in grey?
Seems like a cool horse to add to the site.

Rylee, if you live anywhere near and Equine Affaire event, definitely go to one! They (or at least the one near me) has a whole building dedicated to showing off different breeds. Various associations/breeders set up a booth and most have a stall with one of the horses there to meet!

Alright! The Falabellas are my fav. I also love Arabians and thouroughbreds.
Wait. Did I do My Homework?
Knicks go, Oh My! They are a very cute little horse. These remind me a lot of the mini horses my friend raised. I would really love to see these on the site.

@Rylee Majority of Orlov Trotters are indeed grey! But they also come in bay, black and rarely in chestnut color. There is a tumblr dedicated to Orlov Trotters out there that I visit regularly just because I just LOVE how sturdy that breed looks!
