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.

Prompt:
Home isn't a place for Barley. It's with those she loves most. No matter where she might be, as long as she's surrounded by loved ones, she's home. The warmth she feels in her heart and all the good times shared are more important than any specific place could ever be.

Prompt: For Kartoshka, home is the little farm where she spent her filly years, near a huge forest and a giant blue lake. She has fond memories of her parents galloping in the fields there with her and splashing in the lake, and although she now lives far away her heart belongs to this "home".

Prompt: Cane thinks home is anywhere he stops for more than 5 minutes. If you take him to a show and he's waiting for his time he'll 100% get super comfortable, relaxed and has even drifted to sleep. If we're out on a trail ride and stop for a break or some lunch he'll become a big lazy potato and just laze about in the sun.

Prompt:

Home noun
The word home cannot be described in a dictionary. Home, is a mindset to where an individual feels belonging and acceptance. Where one truly feels happy and whole. But a house is not a home to some, to some it’s a battleground. Home can be for a place we’ve never been before or somewhere we can never be again. No home cannot be described accurately in a textbook, for home is that feeling. The feeling of true happiness is a home.

Barn Name: Sorrento or "Sorren"
Gender: Stallion
Height: 15hh
Halter: same as eyes <3
Prompt: To Sorren, home is where the horses who are lost become found, where those newly found horses also find themselves and even make friends. How he knows? Well, he was one of those horses. A nomad, a broken spirit. Always hungry and simply a husk of who he should've been. But did they care? No. He had to fend for himself as kindness was seen as a weakness. Day and night, non-stop. Poor Sorren was always busy and working ever so hard, storing his patience that began to run dry, like a creek in the hot summer. Something important that Sorren had that his comrades didn't was hope. That hope was kept safe in the sea of terror of which was his heart and mind, eventually, that hope brought him an ever-loving home that he lives into this day, fed regularly and able to still do what he loves most.
