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 seems to have a little friend following closely behind - who are they?

Halter Color: your choice
Prompt: A painted bat, a very orange and elusive species of bat that usually lives in Bangladesh. It's a male and his name is Matt. He met Jasmine after escaping from a cage where he was locked. He probably was to be sold to a collector of rare animals , but luckily managed to escape. The problem was that it was definitely not in his habitat. Jasmine found him, and since then has helped Matt survive.

Halter Color: Flame colors?
Prompt:

An Isabella Tiger Moth!
"Like a moth to a flame", it seems appropriate that this little friend would follow Aello around.
The little moth blends right in with Aello's coat, too... so spotting it might be tricky.

Prompt:
Blaze is almost always accompanied by a northern saw-whet owl Island residents speculate that the tiny little poofbirb, fondly nicknamed 'Flicker', must've blown in during a particularly ferocious winter storm. She sleeps nestled into his mane and is particularly fond of using him as a 'mobile perch' whilst hunting.
