Hi Sherry, this is very interesting thread. Having one classification would probably be more efficient, also would add credibility to the breed and then...
Along with several other Canadian Horse owners, I took my mare Fancy to the Interior Provincial Exhibition held in early Sept. We participated in breed demos,...
Hi Sherry and Lerya, You both bring up some very good points. There may even be three classification systems: the current one of the CHBA, the one for the...
Hi Ken and Lerya, Ken, I wouldn't call the Woodmont Evaluation Scale a legitimate classification system. It is one man's farm and he evaluates his own horses...
Sherry, your post is very interesting and expresses many of the reasons horse prices vary from area to area. Here in Georgia, when I breed a mare AI, the...
This subject comes from use for Canadian horse. I want to explore this and also how we could teach clients about price. I once met a 60 yo women. She was...

I've enjoyed some of the great posts on this subject. I liked Kay's idea about using the welsh pony classifications. "A" is the smallest of the breed, and...
... and ... Sharon, The gold, silver and bronze categories used by the AQCC are also called Class A, B, and C. These classes refer to how well the horse has...
I know what you are talking about, Sharon. To look at the springy trot and ride it, is two different things. When I bought the pony, I did not even see a...
I am looking for a small( l5 hands or less) Canadian horse (preferably a mare) for a friend who is recovering from a horse- related back injury. She is...
Oh, I see what you're saying Ken. Thank you for the explanation. I interpreted the Gold, Silver, Bronze incorrectly. Do you think this will fly? Will some...

Hi, I've been reading the posts with interest and have thought about the acknowledgement of sub-types, but in a much less rigid way. Sometimes, I just don't...

Hi Jackie, Congratulations on your new filly. I have seen quite a few Canadians use their hooves to check things out or even dig for food, such as roots. My...
