Andaluz Sport Horse #006 based on this drawing by paradise,
by Idem @ Sat Jun 11, 2022 4:48 pm [Reply]

Image
information!! wrote:Andaluz Sport Horses are a cross between the Andalusian and the Spanish Sport Horse. These horses have been bred
to combine their strength and agility to create the perfect showing champions. Andaluz's are extremely intelligent and elegant
horses, but are also known to have a fiery spirit. Their name is quite literally a combination of the two species, with andaluz
meaning "andalusian" in Spanish, and sport horse coming from their Spanish heritage.

These horses excel in endurance competitions such as cross country and show jumping, but are also capable of dressage
and harness pulling. Andaluz's also enjoy leisure riding as a way to bond between horse and rider. These sport horses can be
ridden either Western or English, but for showing purposes, will always be shown in English tack and attire.

Their heights can range anywhere from 14-16hh, with the average falling between 15-15.3hh. The most common
coat colors are the basic solids, but Andaluz's can have any coat color that has been discovered with the exception of mutations.

Prompt: Ducky has always been fond of rubber duckies. Ever since he was a colt, he's found them irresistible from their bright colors to the way they bounce back no matter how hard he tramples them. He's even been known to carry one around in his mouth, chewing until it gives a small squeak or wheeze, which always makes him toss his head and snort with delight.

Prompt: It's unclear how exactly the safety cone made it's way into the horse paddock, though some have a theory that it was the coordinated effort of Lizzy and Vernus. One thing is for sure, it is Lizzy's newest favorite toy. She won't let anyone else get near it, and loves to kick it or throw it around. Of course, as soon as it looks damaged enough to possibly cause harm, it is quickly replaced with a new one while she isn't looking.

LBC #0289 based on this drawing by Pandora!
by Luzala @ Thu Jun 09, 2022 1:35 am [Reply]

The Lone Bashkir Curly horse is a very unique and set apart breed. They are well known for their curly coats, caused by many gene mutations, and their versatility. Lone Curly Horses are often found as chestnut, but have a wide variety of colors, some more rare than others. They range in height from 13-16 hands, but are often found between 14-15 hands. These horses are found wild in Nevada, USA. Although they are wild, they are also known for their calm and gentle nature. Lone Bashkir Curly Horses got their name due to them not staying in herds with other horses. Since they are always separated, they often wander far into owned land and cause disruptions. They have very much grown in population, causing problems and wreaking havoc, therefore creating the need for a relocation organization. The LBC Organization is running a rehoming program to protect these horses while still preserving them. If you're interested, keep an eye out for LBCs looking for a new place to call home!


Happy Pride Month!!!

Flag ideas: This is such a tough thing! I can't help with LGBTQ-ideas I am afraid, I am not terribly informed on that, sadly. Aromantic, asexual and bisexual maybe? I think those haven't been done yet.
Also I was thinking that maybe, just maybe, you could do an autistic pride flag too (this is the one I have seen most often - Link but also this, Gold is a huge factor)? It's not exactly LGBTQ I guess, but Autistic Pride day is also in June (18th) so I thought that might be alright still?

SH Percheron #031 based on this drawing by sleepyDandy
by orse @ Fri Jun 10, 2022 3:32 pm [Reply]

homebreedingcustomsauctionsshop
discordarchiveartist searchgenetic guide

Percherons are a breed of draft horse that originated in the Huisne river valley in western France, most commonly seen in a black or grey color. They are well muscled, and known for their intelligence and willingness to work, as well as being generally peaceful creatures that are lovable and easy to train. They're seen between 15 and 19 hands high, and 1,900 to 2,600 pounds. Percherons were originally bred for use as war horses, but over time, they began to be used for pulling stagecoaches and later for agriculture and hauling heavy goods. They have been crossed with several light horse breeds, such as Arabians, to produce horses for range work and competition, but are still used for forestry work and pulling carriages.

Sleepy Hollow Percherons originates from the northern midwest United States, home to many varieties of horse from many different backgrounds of work; working as police mounts in Australia to forestry and farm work in Great Britain, parades, sleigh rides and hayrides around the world, and competing in various classes such as dressage and classic cart. Sleepy Hollow Percherons can very commonly seen in equine therapy and beginner riding lessons as well due to their gentle, relaxed behavior.


For this Percheron, tell me what their favourite equestrian discipline is!

    Owner: HowlingHooves
    Show Name: Hold of Decorum
    Barn Name: King
    Gender: Stallion
    Halter Color: #ff9933 (saffron)
    Prompt: Despite being unable to do so himself, King loves watching the lighter-boned horses at Adelaron doing the high show jumping circuits! When a local show is held at the stables, he’s always at the fence line watching all the daintier horses (to him, at least!) leaping over such tall oxers, liverpools that many competitors just fly over without a drop of water being disturbed, the rails that seem to be higher for some horses… King wishes he could jump all of these, though his large mass is just too heavy for the heights of them; he’s still enthralled by the jumpers and enthusiastically watches them whenever he can.

Prompt: Flyer may look like she would be best suited to cart pulling, but she is actually a fantastic cross country performer! This girl loves to bop over obstacles, not only because it's fun, but also because she likes to see the looks on all the sport horse faces when she gets a clear round with a winning time. Don't believe her? Here's proof that Percherons can do XC too! Percheron XC, helmet cam!

PrincessAlexis @ Sun Jun 12, 2022 9:51 am

Username: PrincessAlexis
Name: Māhū
Name Meaning(s):

In Polynesian culture, the māhū are "people of uncertain gender", another way of saying that they are non-binary. They have a rich social and historical context, but were persecuted when Catholic Europeans arrived on the islands. Their presence is preserved in Gauguin's artwork which showed people with equally masculine and feminine characteristics displayed naturally and openly as they lounged, relaxed, and went about their days. Even with the religious prohibitions against gender non-conformity, the māhū remained because they were considered irreplaceable, even if sometimes only for their advanced capabilities at cooking, cleaning, and taking care of children.

Gender: Non-binary, assigned female at birth
Prompt:

Out of a litter of seven pups, Māhū was the only one designated as a female at birth. Surrounded by so many brothers in the womb, they were naturally exposed to a great deal of testosterone and this caused Māhū to have a rather masculine mindset and behaviors, which was further reinforced by growing up with their siblings who were very rough-and-tumble individuals. At first this endeared her to the breeder, who liked to boast that Māhū could keep up with the best of them, would never give up, and never surrender! They got many admirers and quickly found a home with a local couple.

As Māhū grew, their masculine behaviors became more pronounced, which led to leg-lifting and other behaviors common to adolescent males. While this amused the elderly gentleman, his wife was displeased and announced that she would never have tolerated such rude behaviors in a male (the reason they had searched for a 'female' pup) and certainly would not accept it from their puppy. The older man was dismayed and he tried to talk some sense into his wife, claiming that it was all natural behaviors and what more could they expect from an animal, but the wife was having none of it. She tried to return the puppy to the breeder, who announced that they would be ready to accept Māhū back but were not willing to refund the money, as there was absolutely nothing wrong with her.

Having a hissy fit, the wife demanded that her husband take the dog and set it free somewhere. "She's uncivilized, send her to be in the wild, would you? That's where she belongs." Wiping a tear from his eye, the old man only nodded sadly and scooped Māhū up into his arms. They licked the tears from his cheek, neither knowing nor understanding what was to become of them. The old man drove for a long time, all the way to the next state, where his old friend from the army lived. Morgan was a person that was often misunderstood, one who had long hair and piercings and dressed sometimes in men's clothes and other times not. The old man felt in his heart that Morgan would understand Māhū, and felt that the two of them would be good for one another, because both of them didn't really fit into their gender roles in quite the same way that others did.

When the old man finally arrived at Morgan's doorstep, he suddenly paled, realizing he had forgotten to call before coming over. No matter, his wife would have had a fit about that too, and at any rate Morgan was retired and likely to be home at that hour. Time seemed to stand still as they waited at the door, the old man fretting his hands together and Māhū standing on their hind legs to peer in through the window. Finally Morgan arrived and the elderly gentleman explained the situation to him.

"Well, I can't say that I've expected to see you here. Not after that time I got thrown out of the dinner party..."

The old man covered his face with his hands, afraid he'd come all this way for nothing.

"But you know I couldn't let a fellow non-binary individual face this kind of persecution. You know what, I've been wanting a dog anyway, in fact, and I think that my new pal may be just the perfect companion." With that, Morgan took off their scarf and wrapped it around Māhū's neck to keep them warm. It smelled just right and looking into those kind eyes, free of any nitpicking or judgemental people, Māhū finally felt at home.

As for the old man, he was sad when he left and even sadder when he came home to a woman hooting and hollering about how long he'd been gone. Finally, he gave his wife an ultimatum: either open her mind and lose the attitude or get the heck out! It's still too soon to see what will become of that couple, but as for Māhū, they are loved more than ever.

Morgan was a person that was often misunderstood, one who had long hair and piercings and dressed sometimes in men's clothes and other times not. The old man felt in his heart that Morgan would understand Māhū, and felt that the two of them would be good for one another, because both of them didn't really fit into their gender roles in quite the same way that others did.

When the old man finally arrived at Morgan's doorstep, he suddenly paled, realizing he had forgotten to call before coming over. No matter, his wife would have had a fit about that too, and at any rate Morgan was retired and likely to be home at that hour. Time seemed to stand still as they waited at the door, the old man fretting his hands together and Māhū standing on their hind legs to peer in through the window. Finally Morgan arrived and the elderly gentleman explained the situation to him.

"Well, I can't say that I've expected to see you here. Not after that time I got thrown out of the dinner party..."

The old man covered his face with his hands, afraid he'd come all this way for nothing.

"But you know I couldn't let a fellow non-binary individual face this kind of persecution. You know what, I've been wanting a dog anyway, in fact, and I think that my new pal may be just the perfect companion." With that, Morgan took off their scarf and wrapped it around Māhū's neck to keep them warm. It smelled just right and looking into those kind eyes, free of any nitpicking or judgemental people, Māhū finally felt at home.

As for the old man, he was sad when he left and even sadder when he came home to a woman hooting and hollering about how long he'd been gone. Finally, he gave his wife an ultimatum: either open her mind and lose the attitude or get the heck out! It's still too soon to see what will become of that couple, but as for Māhū, they are loved more than ever.


I loves both entries a lot, but this story was so emotional and worked in the non-binary theme and current issues in such an interesting way! Congrats!

prompt: garage is a small, lazy thing that lives in their trainers auto workshop. they're the youngest of a line of zigzagzoon evolutions that their trainer and their family have kept over the years, and they're very used to being babied by the family. they've got a particularly distinct smell of oil, gasoline and welded metal and even after washing never seems to shed the scent (or the dirty paws that they walk all over freshly mopped floors).
