My Horses (Real Life)

Timothy, Bay Thoroughbred gelding

Serede, Gray English (Crabbet) Arabian mare

Muzaar, Gray Anglo-Arab gelding

Maverick, Bay Tobiano Paint gelding. 

Donagen, Chestnut Thoroughbred. We are at the CDS championships for a First Level Musical Freestyle in Dressage

Donagen. I body clipped him in winter and he's got a San Diego Charger lightening bolt on his hindquarter. :-)

Valley Girl, my sister bred this mare. She's a Bay Tobiano pinto American Warmblood

I have always LOVED horses and have been extremely fortunate to own and train them. I competed in Dressage for 5 years until I divorced and had to basically give up having horses. Black Desert horse breeding and training is fun and I suppose it feeds my passion a little bit. :-)

I FINALLY figured out how to post these photos!! Took almost an hour! Must be getting a bit rusty in web development skills... Ugh!

They're beautiful, Alana!!  I've always loved horses and took riding lessons, but never owned one myself.  I really like the fact that you can tame, breed and own such a nice variety of horses in BDO! 

Nice horses. My mom has horses still and helps train them as well as work with the owners to learn how to do it too. Due to health she can't ride anymore, but she can still ground train and usually knows what a horse is going to do by watching it to warn a rider she is training. I joke she is an old nag and that is why horses love her so much. She's even gotten high strung Arabians to chill out and work better for their owners.

I probably should go over more often now that I can again and see about riding, though my MS makes my seat in the saddle a bit off at times. I remember having a sciatica issue once and I was trying to sit right on her grand champion who is push button. I had to get off because the poor horse thought I wanted her to side pass the way I was in the saddle and trying to get comfortable.

Dressage is really cool though haven't seen much of that at mom's stable. A lot more western riding going on though she had some girls at one point who did a lot of hunt seat riding. One of them could even get her horse to swim with her on him.

Yeah horses can be a great deal of fun along with the work it takes. =)

Love Serede :-)  She's a beauty.  Thanks for the pictures!
