Do people still breed shire x TB

[welshied]

is a shire x tb an old fashioned breed now bacause i use to have one but now you don't seem to find any!

 

[Nickijem]

I had a lovely shire x tb on loan once - he was a 17.2hh bay called Jenson. I'd love to know where he is now - he'd be about 17 years old now.

We have a ShirexTB in the field behind ours, wonderful, stunning horse, and if I was ever to get a big one, I would defiantly look for one. Hope you find your perfect ned!

I dont think they are as popular now!! We have alot of Clydesdales x tb in our area think they must be taking over at the moment

 

[joe_carby]

[welshied]

i aren't paticurlarly looking for one but if i found a really nice foal i would proberbly be very tempted so long as it was my dads money lol

I have a 17hh TB XShire and she's amazing. A really lovely horse. There is an ad on H and H for someone who does breed them.

I will definitely go for another one when looking for my next horse.

Until this post I never realised you rarely hear of this breed anymore!
I have a 24yr old Shire x tb and she really is my horse in a million.
Unfortunatly I had to retire her 4yrs ago due to suspensory ligament problems, and she has lived out since, all this time. I haven't sat on her for this time until yesterday (just for a picture!). I feel quite emotional as I type this, as I miss her so much and wish I could have her around, to help my kids learn about horses. She would be ideal for ride and lead.......now I've got tears!

anyway I hope you don't mind me posting a picture on your post, but here is Emma - pics from my mobile

We have a 15.2hh 5 yrs shire x tb very smart dark bay gelding, has all the makings of a very laid back horse. Just about to sell him as sadly have no time to bring him on at mo.

 

[jhoward]

my yo has one, and tends to buy most of her horses from the same breeder, they are largely tb x shire.

 

[welshied]

jhoward don't suppose the breeder has a website?

 

[Stateside]

We had a shire X TB by Just a monarch , what a horse got to grade A very quickly, He had so much jump ,we bought him from John Simms who bred him . He sadly had a injury and then sold on for the riding club job and the girl that bought him has loads of fun 1m opens , he just not sound enough for any more. Still got a picture of him on my office wall.

 

[wizbit]

Puzzled - what has he done? how much are you going to advertise him for? I am after another ned

 

[Lollii]

My farriers dad breeds tb x shire's, he has a few shire mares and two TB stallions, he has a few youngsters that he is selling. He is in East Sussex.

 

[QUICKFIRE]

I used to have a shire x tb wonderfull horse had lots of fun with him, whenever I have a wonder around horse sale sites always look at any that are advertised, I would love to find another, but they are few and far between.

 

[Gorgeous George]

My Gorgeous George is a shire x TB, he is a super boy and a real all rounder. He is very kind and gentle, but he is really funny if anything around him changes -he notices if houses get painted different colours, verges trimmed etc.!

 

[Chumsmum]

Lovely pictures EandJ and GG

 

[RubysGold]

Roo is a shire x tb. Absolutely fab breed, and I would defo like another one.

 

[welshied]

i love gorgeous george he is very similar to my old mare

 

[Donkeymad]

They are definately still being bred and are still very popular. My OH used to have a Shire X holstein and currently has a shire x dartmoor - honest. he is fab

 

[welshied]

would love to see pics of the shire x dartmoor lol

 

[hollyandivy123]

second that about the dartmoor cross..................which was the sire the dartmoor i hope and did it need step ladders

 

[lowbardon]

i have just bought a shire cross tb i think shes mostly shire shes 17hh and very quiet but very opinionated i would recomend them as lovely riding horses.

 

[j_harmer1995]

this is my Shire X TB, best horse i've ever had!

 

[**Vanner**]

I too have always admired this cross - would love one for my hubby

 

[Miss-rose]

They breed them where I keep my horse, both the horses in my Sig are shire crosses I think they make fab allrounders. They have a shire x foal 3 weeks old called boo and she's just gorgeous

 

[Honey08]

There are loads of TBXshires around us. Lovely big things usually. Up there with ISH types..

 

[Nudibranch]

My boy is out of a shire x TB, they have both inherited the TB looks but with the extra bone. Perfect! He's like Gorgeous George in that he's a lovely gentle boy but definitely notices things around him, I suspect that's also the TB genes ;-)
