Very pretty to look at…

Mine loves people, and you absolutely must have treats for her.

If another horse looks at her in the wrong way the ears go back and she is clearly telling them to eff off!

Then the ears go forward again and asking for food ans scratches

I love a chestnut mare I loaned a super Welsh/Arab mix chestnut mare as a teen, she was quite food sensitive and rider sensitive but other than that she's was the ultimate all-rounder. Hack out alone all day, local agricultural shows showing, pony club etc. she took me from riding school to popping round 3 ft 6 courses. She used to stretch like a cat every morning. Falling asleep at a busy show...View attachment 147680View attachment 147681
This little mare is so like the one I used to own. Mine was TB x Welsh and an absolute sweetie. One of the nicest and easiest ponies I ever had.

Mine's as ginger as they come - ISH with a dash of warmblood. I wanted an athletic 4yo ISH which was sane-ish, and she just happened to come in mare + ginger! I was going to add some gratuitous photos but that bl**dy HPVE advert pops up on my phone so I can't do it!
This girl is ISH x Warmblood too. Really nice stamp and unspoilt.

The advert is bloody annoying... it pops up when i click on things on my laptop too

I have one. She’s my ‘Ginger Witch’. I absolutely adore her. But crikey, she’s not easy. Sassy. Opinionated. Bit spicy. She’s a Welsh x TB. She’s 15 hands high. Never got to the height I’d hoped. Rides like a pony. She’s incredibly brave, thrives on work. Superb to hack. You cannot let her get away with anything. She’s too clever. She kills any free ranging chickens that dare to go into her field. She will even try to bite certain joggers that run towards her. Have no idea why 😀

Orange mares are the best! Admittedly mine is diluted with some white splodges but she does her level best to colour those in for me.
