Ah, I love Andalusians, and have done for a while, my mum ABSOLUTELY loves them, so we were searching around for one, and after looking at one on majestic andalusians for a bit, we found one we fell in love with. His name is Puntal V, but we named him Luca for a stable name. He's 6 years old, and he's an Andalusian Stallion.

A year later, and we rescued 2 Andalusians from a farm near us, a mare and foal. Fenda (the mare) and her filly (that is now named Breeze, which is her stable name, Fantasia is her registered name) Fenda is still putting on weight, she's not broken in yet, but I will work on that when her back bone is covered a bit more.

I have lot's of photo's, but I guess I will only post a few.

I also have 3 other horses.

Gypsy (Registered name: Gypsy Dancer) and her Filly (She's about 9 weeks old now, and offspring of Puntal V) Gypsy is a Cob X TB and Rain is a part bred Andalusian.

Chase (Chaseford Charisma) is a Welsh cob X Arab mare and she was rescued along with Gypsy, both totally emaciated. They have made a huge difference, and are the most beautiful, well behaved horses I know. I only got them for £250 each. Now they are worth around £5,000 and more.

Fenda is in foal, and are also going to try Chase again (She doesn't like Luca :/) And, we might be getting another Andalusian Stallion, a bay, around 16+hh. We run a small stud farm called Tralissa Andalusians (Mine and my mums name put together)

Not all photo's I have are posted here, there are some here too NiNo Photography (New photo's added!) and their all up to page 9.

Name: Puntal V
Stable Name: Luca
Age: 6
Breed: Andalusian
Sex: Stallion
Height: 16.hh
Colour: Grey
Personality: Sweet and friendly horse, very funny. Loves being fussed with, and loves spending time with his best friend Willow. Some days he and Willow don't get on, but he makes sure that Willow know's when he's not in a good mood.


Name: Willow (We need to give him a little show name)
Stable Name: Willow
Age: 1
Breed: Miniature Pony
Sex: Stallion
Height: (Not sure)
Colour: Black and white (Piebald)
Personality: Loves to terrorise Luca, bites and tries to kick people. He's not really a people horse, he has no manners and loves food. We don't get along at all, so I think we are going to get him castrated, as he is getting worse to handle.

Name: Gypsy Dancer
Stable Name: Gypsy
Age: 6
Breed: Cob x 7/6th's Thoroughbred
Sex: Mare
Height: 15.3hh
Colour: Skewbald (Brown, Black and White)
Personality: The friendliest horse you could ever meet, really kind sweet natured horse, she's never apart from her best friend Chase, they have been together all their life.

Name: Esperanza
Stable Name: Raine
Age:9 weeks old (Around that anyway)
Breed: Cob x Andalusian
Sex: Filly
Height: Won't know until she's older, but will make over 15hh, she's a big girl right now.
Colour: She came out like a dun, then went bay, now she's going grey.
Personality: Raine is a very friendly, and forward going foal. She absolutely loves attention, and is very playful.

Name: Chaseford Charisma
Stable Name: Chase
Age: 10
Breed: Welsh cob, part Arab
Sex: Mare
Height: 14.2hh
Colour: Orange Bay
Personality: Totally nuts. Chases people, love's to jump. Is friendly with people she knows. Very protective of Gypsy, goes mental if Gypsy isn't there. Loves to flirt with the horses in the field next to her.

Name: Fenda
Stable Name: Fenda
Age: 10
Breed: Andalusian
Sex: Mare
Height: 15.3hh
Colour: White (Well, grey... As there is no such thing as a white horse)
Personality: Very very friendly, very quiet, has never been broken in, she is a brood mare and has bred a foal every year. Loves to be groomed and is slowy making friends with Gypsy and Chase.

Name: Fantasia
Stable Name: Breeze
Age: 9 Months
Breed: Andalusian
Sex: Mare
Height: 13.2hh and still growing!
Colour: Black, but is starting to turn grey.
Personality: Bubbly, loves to play with Fenda, loves Chase and is getting along ok with Gypsy. She has become attatched to Chase, so is slowy leaving Fenda. She loves to jump already, the highest she has jumped is 3ft. (She jumped the stable door while I was taking pictures of Fenda in the paddock)

Chase (Chaseford Charisma)






Right, this is Chase when I first had her. The person holding her was my mum, and so I had to block her out.




This is Gypsy, she was 2 when I first had her, and already broken in, silly people...

Tell us more about the horses that you might be adopting!!! How exciting. Wow, that is alot of horses. Do you live on a big ranch, or just have alot of land. How absolutely exciting. I'm not even there and I am jumping up and down for you wishing I were there to help you with all of these horses!!! Tell us more as soon as you can. Oh, I can't wait to hear. Sorry, I just love horse stories. hee hee. You and your family sound great, taking in all of these horses. Hope all goes well and as you plan. Good luck.
My parents didn't want me to write too much, just incase one of my dads friends find out, and my brother isn't supposed to know. But when/if I get them, I will be allowed to say why.

I just can't let 12 horses be euthanised, just because they can't be sold quickly, it's just horrible.

We live in the UK, South Wales.

We don't have ALOT of land, it's getting pretty packed with all the horses I have now, but with Willow going soon, it makes it one less horse to see to.

The horses we should be having, will be kept on a huge field. My dad's friend is offering it to us to rent, so I will be visiting them every day to check up on them and ride them, and take photo's.

Most of them we will probably sell, after they have been with me for a while, I will give my best friend one as a present, and might keep 1 or 2 geldings and a few mares... And also a pony to put with Luca, just to keep him company, cause I have a feeling he's going to pine if he goes. Or we're going to adopt one from HAPPA, which would be cool, cause I went down there not long ago and saw a few horses that need a good home, I just wish I could take all of them O.O.

And thankyou again, I will keep everyone updated :)

Thankyou!

Just some of my andalusian mares, Fenda and Breeze.

The weather here is very bad, as you can see. And it's even worse that we have the canal leaking onto our land. :mad2:

They are so pretty!!
That sux that the canal is leaking :( It looks very muddy and makes for some very messy horses! :p
Hehe, thankyou :)

Yeah, the canal is an absolute pain. We have a canal at the front of the house, and a river at the back, which floods alot. So my fields underwater at the moment, and a little of my new field floods at the dipped end. But we're hoping to move. I think I'm going to spend £10 on lottery tickets, and if I win, I'm out of here straight away, hehe.
hehe!
At our old ranch we used to use sand bags to try to prevent the spill over from our ditches when they got too full of water. i'm not sure if that can help you or if it's just much to big of a canal to control it??
:) good luck w/the lottery! if ya win call me :D :p I'll help ya take care of your horses!!!
beautiful pictures! my mom had a horse when i was a toddler. such gorgeous creatures
Hey, NiNo, where have you been? Long time since we have heard from you! Glad to see you are back. What has been happening with all of the horses?
They are so beautiful you are so lucky you have that many horses I have always wanted just one!

It's picture timeeeeeee.

Again, haha XD

Old thread can be found here http://horselover.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=13790 containing other photo's and stat's of my guy's.

And, I have an announcement.

Right, so my dad's doing the new stables in a week or 2.

We have decided to keep Willow, since he's become much better now that he's getting older.

I'm sure he's about 3/4 now, I'm not quite sure.

We will be keeping him a stallion too.

Right, so Fenda's in foal, and obviously we're not going to keep it, either way. We will be putting it up for sale. I just hope my mum doesn't change her mind.

But my dad suggested earlier on, that we buy another Andalusian brood mare, once Fenda's foal has been sold on.

So yeah XD

I'm not getting my hope's up, it's just that he never really say's that, haha. It's exciting though, hehe. We're looking out for a bay, about 16.hh. We have already found one, we just have to wait now, and hopefully she will still be up for sale :D

Maybe it would be kind of a birthday/christmas present.

Now I know I always say about getting a new horse or horses.

The story on those lot we were supposed to have.

The guy went down, his wife and kid's moved out and moved all horses to a close friend's farm. Which is fine really, although I would have loved to have all those horses, haha.

Then there were some of those horses that were rescued in Amersham, which I will be posting a topic on, since somethings happening with them at the moment. We just couldn't because the horse box wasn't ready.

And then we were putting Willow up for sale, then getting a 12hh pony instead. But my dad suggested that we just keep willow, and when Fenda's foal is born and we manage to sell, then we will get another andalusian broodmare.

Anyway, onto pictures...

Most of them are of Gypsy XD

I didn't manage to get any of Luca, he's not really been able to have his snuggy hood off >_<

I do have some from about a week ago, but I will sort through them tomorrow.

Right, their hooves.

Their fine, they are due for a trim, can't get hold of the farrier. He's the only one we will use, as the other's are all pretty bad (Like jabbing the horses in the side's)

Some are weird angles, so confirmation-wise, may look a bit weird. Their fine >_<

And some may be pretty obese, hehe.

Gypsy's lost alot of muscle and weight, and Fenda hasn't much of both either.

Right...

One Raine snow photo, rofl. Sorry, but I was in a rush to get Luca out in the paddock, and it died down then, and I missed the mad 5 minutes they had.



Gypsy, she love's the camera.
