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.

Show Name: Where the Dinosaurs Roam
Barn Name: Dino
Gender: Male
Halter: eye color
Personality: Dino is a gentle giant, being careful when receiving a treat or being racked up. He is careful with children and adults alike, always knowing that he is bigger than them. He is very easy to work with and wanting to please. He loves his dinosaur plushie. He has had the plush creature since he was a few days old. It has been with him through thick and thin. He is kinda an attention hogger though, sneezing or whining when ignored. He is just a big baby. He also has a habit of lowering his head to low and it takes quite the effort to get him to keep it up. The effort put in is the effort put out.(120 words)

Barn Name: Heather
Gender: mare
Halter: eye color
Personality: Heather is very competitive. She is intelligent and has a strong bond to her owner. Even when it´s just training she will always give her very best to be a better version of herself after that session. That being said, she can also be... Let´s say, overmotivated and a bit hard to handle when she is too focused. This may have led to one or two occassions where she reached the finish line alone. However she is improving a lot the more she is worked with. As a foal she has always been friendly and nice which continued to adulthood. (100 words)

Barn Name: Adrasteia
Gender: mare
Halter: artist choice
Personality: Adrasteia is a very soft mare. She is used as a therapeutic horse when the occasion comes up and typically is used as a lesson horse for young kids. Adrasteia is very understanding when it comes to young from her own species and humans. When foals are being weaned off more often than not she is the one out there as a buddy. She knows when to let them get out their anger or energy and when it's time to put them into their place. In her stall, she always comes up to stick her head out and greet any passerby and maybe even give them a kiss. [107 words]

Username: Mister Hollow
Show Name: Hello Friends
Barn Name: Hello
Gender: Stallion
Halter: Artist's choice <3
Personality: Hello is quite a character, despite definitely no longer being a foal, he still hasn't grown out of the foal-like behaviors of his youth. He can be pretty awkward and clumsy as if he's still figuring out how his legs work, and is insatiably curious about everything around him. We had to build a bookshelf of sorts around his stall windows so he would stop playing with and grabbing everything around his stall, like his own blankets and halter or his neighbor's items, usually to chew on it or otherwise tear it up. This horse roams around a lot in the pasture and is definitely more of a galloper and player than his pasture mates, running around as if his tail has caught fire and is notoriously difficult to bring in, much preferring to be outside where he can run and play to his heart's content. Despite his normally destructive behaviors, the only item that he won't mangle is the plushie that he usually carries around on his back or in his mouth. We're not even really sure who gave him the toy, but it is really cute to see him gently carry it around like a mother cat with a kitten. (202 words)
