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.

To win this trotter tell me one thing you've achieved during this past year and one thing you wish to achieve next year! Winner will be raffled! <3

Prompt: I got so many art commissions this year ! Ok, I actually got a total of 7 commissions over the year, but that's a lot to me. It got me motivated to draw again, to improve, and hopefully keep getting commissions. I know I'll never be a successful artist, but if at least a dozen of persons could appreciate my art, I'd be so happy.
My goal for next year is to be able to fill out these "yearly art summary" templates where you're supposed to show your best art from each month. Meaning I need to produce at least one complete, "showable" piece of art every month.

Prompt: A lot and nothing at all? lol
I started the ball rolling on some medical stuff that I've wanted done for a while (including my first appointment and the next one scheduled) and just never had the courage to tell my mother I was gonna do it until recently.

Something I wish to accomplish... moving out honestly(and if I get to, then getting a cat again, I miss having a cat), it's supposed to happen sometime this coming year, but I guess we'll have to wait and see, fingers crossed.

Prompt: ... I survived? I guess? There's still a couple days left on the clock so we'll see how it goes. Honestly just scraping through this year is all that I can really do, it's been a lot constantly all of the time. Next year I'm hoping to iron out my finances and get myself into a better position than I've been in this year.

Prompt:

I've gained the ability to say "no". May not seem like a lot, but for a chronic people pleaser like me, it is incredibly scary yet life changing.
Next year I hope to graduate my master's degree and find a better job! After 6 long years at uni whilst juggling part-time work, I am ready for a change.

HNY coaliev! I hope you're able to reflect on 2023 and find your accomplishments too! I hope 2024 treats you well :)

Prompt: I finally got involved with a club at my school after avoiding it for so long out of anxiety, and it pushed me to start making merch out of my art (stickers and buttons) which I've always wanted to do!
I hope this coming year I can make even more, and start selling them online and not just at in-person club events.
