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.

this Trotter's been acting a bit finnicky lately, why are they in such a bad mood?

Prompt: He has a small abscess on his hoof! Pyrite tries to be his regular gentle self, but it's hard to be polite when pain flares up his leg each time he takes a step. Luckily, he's seeing his usual farrier and vet in a few days.

Prompt: Actually, he is not really in a bad mood. In fact, he is in love. He met an amazing mare a few days ago. He tried meeting her a few times, and she became more interesting every time. But when she's gone he starts thinking on how to tell her he likes her. A lot. Even loves her. He's too nervous and shy to tell her.
