Pintoarabian: Thanks for posting photos, your horses are truly stunning :)

I have a part Arab. Her posh name is Broadstone Westside, but she is known as Dorrie. Her Sire is Broadstone West Country (Hanovarian and her Dam is racing Silk (Arab).

She certainly considers herself to be 100% Arab:D

I have a part bred arab, he is by Saker (100% crabbet) out of a hanovarian x tb mare. He is 9 this year and I've owned him since he was a yearling.

This is him as a 2 year old

Last year, can't believe how much he's changed!

HashRouge: your mare is beautiful, she has a bright, kind eye.
PintoArabian: I could look at photos of your horses all day, they're all such quality :)

I have a 12 year old arab, HS Hidden Gold. I've wanted an arab since I was about 12, and last June I finally realised my dream. Any excuse to post pictures:

Shortly after I bought him:

His mane has grown longer since this photo was taken, I'm in the camp of 'the longer, the better!'

It's lovely seeing photos of everyones arabs/part breds, keep them coming!

ETA: Umbongo: Your Arab x New Forest is gorgeous!

I'm loving these! Miskette, I love your mare! My lad is Arab x Welsh, his sire was Crabbett lines, and I do have a fondness for the chunkier type.... and I'm currently looking for my next horse and decided to get an pure bred Arab!
I just think they are the most versitile, personable, intelligent little horses.

Here's my boy:

I have an arabX if that counts? Ice is by a knabstrupper stallion (the bit I really wanted) out of an arab mare called Gas Matylka. I don't know much about arabs but Matty appears to be a bit of a deal when I did some digging.

I'm not an Arab person - I'm British! :)

But I do have 3 pure bred Arab horses - the two greys in my signature and another 30 year old retired mare. Love 'em, love 'em, love 'em.

I am an Arab person. I've always wanted an Arab of my own, and then bought a wamrblood instead haha. I've loaned Arabs from a young age though (parents could never afford to buy) and I just adore them. I would definitely buy one if I could afford another horse :)

(my first Arab love when I was tiny!! Talk about poor riding position haha.)

And last but by no means least, my all time favourite pony (PBA) Pandora.
What I would do to have that mare again :) So talented and just amazing!

Charla,

I may be completely wrong, but I think I recognise your yard (although it's been oh, 5 or 6 years since I've been there). Without giving too much away to others, is it halfway up a hill on the right, with a farm shop at the front, near to village E.G? If so, is Janice with Chancer still there? I have lost touch with her and would love to know how she's doing!

I have Pure, Anglo and Part Bred Arabs, specialising in breeding for performance and colour. Here are some of them......




Stunning, I love your pintabians. Such a shame about the dolloop of pooh in this photo, sorry - I notice these things:eek:

I have bred purebreds and Quarabs, my 20 y.o purebred is retired from breeding, although she isn't too impressed about the idea. Last summer I popped a saddle on, hopped on and found out that for four years I had had an incredibly well school Western Pleasure riding horse in my paddocks. She just loves being ridden and getting out.

I think as long as I have horses I will always have space for an arab on the place, I've tried not having one, it didn't work.

I am hoping that one of these days someone will put up a photo of a particular chestnut gelding that I bred back in 1992 in the UK.
Kastanah Karabbah aka Jake, or that's what he was the last time I heard news of him... hint, hint, in Surrey or Sussex

Not sure I really qualify as an Arab person but I'm currently riding an Arab mare who belongs to the lady who runs the place where my retired pony lives. Can't post pics as she's not mine but she's dapple grey, about 7, 14hh-ish, by Psyches Spirit. Very sweet little lady who can be quite bossy at times but also very lovely to handle and ride.

The first place I learned to ride in the mid-80's was Iain Crawfords yard at Cossington, Leicestershire. He bred arabs and I fell in love with them then and always wanted one so I'm enjoying B. Though I wish she were taller (or me shorter....)....

Faro - which photo do you recognise the yard in? Each Arab is at a different yard :p

Well, the last one is in fact at a show :)

My old dear girl, Kazella (by K of K) was 1/4 Highland, 1/8 tb & 5/8 arab. Beautiful mahogany bay in summer with light roaning over her back, which went allmost white in winter. Used to say her only non-arab bit was her coat. Wonderful cross, highly recommend it as a gp horse & genuine friend.

Wow! There are really some stunning horses on here (loving your mare haras!)
It makes me frustrated that some peopple still have such a negative attitude to Arabs - when discussing with some friends that I was going to view some Arabs last weekend, one commented 'what do I want one of those for? They don't do anything. It's would be like sitting on a hat-rack.'
Well I fail to see anything that would need anything less than a wide-fit saddle here!!! And tell me anything they don't do.
Love 'em.

Thank You! I wasn't planning to buy an arab when i spotted her, I was just visiting a stud with a friend and spotted her out of the corner of my eye and fell in love. Whereabouts are you? as I know someone who is shutting down an arabian stud and has quite a few horses to rehome. and re the saddle thing.... I think hers is extra wide and it had to have pointing straps put on to accomodate her wide flat back!

Edited to say, I've just seen where you are, stud is in somerset... maybe to far.

The super awesome Flame. Thirty year old part bred arab who is beautiful, brainy,a bit mean and who is just ace to have around.

My four year old pure bred gelding Miyaz. Sweet, kind, genuine and a very funny little character, he is. The polar opposite of Flame, he is straightforward and easy.
