Re: Your Horses Family

 Tommy has no parents on his passport, I met both of Button's parents when I went to get him.  

After a bit of internet digging i found pictures of both Rhodri's mum and dad,

here's his parents and him - his face and colour are very similar to his mum 

he's picture one, daddy pic 2 mummy pic 3

 I know absolutely zilch about Woody's past and it really bugs me!

Re: Your Horses Family

 i'm really lucky with my girls breeding. 

now dont judge this as it's really sad haha, but her ancestors are easily traced back to the 1600's :) It's absolutely amazing seeing how its all been documented and recorded and what horses used to mean! Lovely knowing she has that heritage :) Especially as for my a level in art i did Stubbs, and he actually painted some of her family haha! was a fab link :) super interesting, spent far too long of my life looking up the history of them all :) 

Re: Your Horses Family

I know nothing about Coco's family. He has no parents listedon his passport and as I boough him from a dealer she had no records either, just that she brought him over from Ireland. I bet my biggun was the cutest and cheekiest foal though, he is so inquisative, brave and playful now, I would love to see a picture of him when he was a nipper! Based on his behaviour and health issues though I dont think Coco had a very nice human family until he came to me though, he has a couple of huge scars on his legs so he's been in a nasty accident or accidents when he was younger, his teeth were so sharp the vet didn't think he'd ever had them done when we bought him, he had never been taught to pick up his feet for pickingout let alone the farrier and he  used to have major insecurity issues on his own and is still prone to insecurity when he is out somewhere new and a lot of people say that can be caused by weaning too early or too harshly so I dont think he had enough time with his mommy and due to his liver issue, hoof imbalance problems that should have been sorted when he was younger and signs that he had his ear twitched and now has nerve dammage in his left ear as a result, I dont really think he was really cared for at all in his younger life.

Me and my mum are his family now (and Justin and William his field buddies!) and as much as I would love to know about his dam and sire, brothers and sisters and what he was like as a baby I guess all that matters now is that he is loved, cared for and happy with his family and life!

 Ellie I know was originally called Ebony when she was born.

She has a foal called Heather who I have never traced but would love to, and one of the horses at my yard is related to her in some way, I think they are cousins.

I don't have her passport as she is a loan from my stables, so I don't know anything about her parents even if they are listed.
