I am slowly being converted!
Am in the process of breaking in my second Andy and they are sooo easy!
This little one only had a bridle first put on a week ago and I got on it for the first time yesterday easy as you like, walked about a bit and she was like 'Yes, and, what now'?
 
Hee hee! Mine is only half (apparently!) he is soooo laid back the majority of the time, if I ever break a horse I will make sure its an andy!

love them love them love them!! my next horse will be one. after working with them realised how nice they are althought i will never give up my current boy!
 
my Andi stallion is possibley the most intelligent horse ive ever come across, hes also incredibley gentle and willing, hes for sale now, i can honestley say i dont think i will ever replace him.
 
I have a rising 4 part bred lipizzaner and she is an absolute sweety. She is quite willful but very bidable and loving.
 
i had a lipi as well, again very bright, and very soft, but was almost like a bloshy kid, very in your face... give a choice between the 2 id go for an andi every time!
 
We have an andy stallion come stay sometimes and he is so laid back even with the ladies about. Why are you selling your boy?
 
due to having to move out of my yard.. not being able to find work, mare coming back off loan with a tendon injury.. many reasons, hes advertised all over for 3k! nuts considering hes registered pre,,, but he has to go.. and before dec 1st!

as a horse i forget hes a stallion, hes such a lamb, goes out in the field with my gelding with 2 dartmoor mares beside them, and he has a character to die for!
 
I am considering an Andalusian stallion for my pony mare next year. She is only 13.1 and I would like something a tad bigger as she is such a loveable and generous little pony, it would be a crime not to breed from her. The stallion has to be quite small, but with tons of quality and I have got my eye on this chap as a potential mate and I'm after a foal to keep. Any opinions would be gratefully received.

Yeah, Ive got a half Luso (Portuguese obviously but still Iberian) and he's made me catch the bug. As a next horse I will seriously consider looking for either a pure Andy or Luso or possibly one crossed with a TB like I have now. They just have fantastic willing natures.
