Range Trotters are the result of crossbreeding Orlov Trotters, Finnhorses, Welsh Cobs (section C & D) and Hanoverians. Later crosses of Quarter Horses, Paint and Appaloosas to gain color and to give a boost to their hardiness.With a height average of 13-15 hands, they're a hardy breed with characteristics for various disciplines.

Created for use as work, carriage and leisure riding horses originally, they now serve as long-distance range horses, such as work with Park Rangers and mounted officers.

Willing and eager personalities, most are quickly trained to be bombproof and therefore trusted mounts in all lines of work; some are being seen in local show jumping competitions, others are notably used in therapeutic sessions for their calm temperaments. Harness races and endurance trials are common for the breed, as they are able to sustain an extended trot without tire. Cross-Country competitions see some of the taller Trotters, but due to their cob lineage this is still uncommon.

Despite the variety of competitions and work these horses are being seen in, they are still famously skilled as endurance racers. Many competitors have chosen Range Trotters due to their tireless work ethic, as well as the ease in which they can be trained. Many have become champions in endurance trials, and they have quickly become a sought after breed for their natural ability.

Barn Name: Verano
Gender: mare
Height: 15hh
Halter Color: gradient pink + blue
Prompt:

Verano, called Vera for short, is a natural swimmer! So of course, for summer, Vera spends much lot of her time swimming in the rivers, ponds, creeks, you name it, found in her pasture. Being as light as she is however, calls for a large amount of sunscreen and mud..

Vera also enjoys spending a few hours a day under the apple tree. A big tree, yielding plenty of crisp apples for Vera and her pasture mates to snack on. Swimming, eating, laying in the shade, in summary is what Vera does on these hot summer days. Everyday is different however, and Vera has plenty of things to do and plenty of ways to keep herself entertained.

Prompt:

Heatwave plans on staying inside the barn as much as possible during the summer as it gets to be super hot, like bake cookies in the sun hot, but he always gets yummy watermelon treats and cool baths. Despite the heat, Heatwave love love loves to watch everyone play with the hoses and eating popsicles, especially the small kids visiting.

Prompt: i get serious mermaid vibes from her and i know it's not a feasible summer plan for a horse, but HEAR ME OUT: she's a mer-trotter !!! her summer plans include splashing around in the ocean foam with her friends, and after a nice long day with sand in her hooves and saltwater in her mane, she loves to nap under the warm sun. however, local rumor has it that at night she can be caught swimming way past the shore...only to return in the morning. ;o;

Prompt: Peach season is May through September, but most are harvested in July and August making them the perfect summer fruit!
Peach is honestly spending her summer days either cooling off in our misters or getting a head start on her "winter body" instead of her "summer body". I usually feel pity for her because she's so overdramatic about the heat so I'll make her some homemade horse safe snacks and fruit mix and well......let's just say she's extra "fluffy" come autumn and winter.
