I agree. He is the type of pony who really attracted me to the breed. He's a pony, but in my opinion, very much baroque type. ... Playboy.JPG ===== Karen...
Hy Sabine, what beautiful pony! Perhaps to use the word "baroque type" leads to some misunderstanding. What I wanted to say ist that I (just for myself) like...
No one breeds them too look like andalusions, but to me anyway, the really good ones usually do! The sport pony types usually resemble warmbloods, or ...
Hi Sabine To me he is a real Connemara, very true to type - very good picture You have taken. Best wishes Lene a lot of sun, but a little cold BiniD@......
Hi Bini, He sure is baroque type and a lovely pony. To be critical of him, the only fault I could see is he is light in the gaskin - unfortunately an all too...

Hi All, I think he looks very "typical" Connemara, not too sporty or old fashioned
but representing quality pony type in a more modern package.....and yes I...
Hi again, as you liked the Spiddal Playboy picture so much, I could not resist sending this one, also taken at the 2004 Clifden show (by myself this time) By...
It's the part of the leg just above the hock. Also called the second thigh. (In Swedish it's called "skank" if that's similar to the German term?) Unless I got...
She is truly gorgeous and quite aptly named "Starlet" I can see why you
wanted to take her home!....now if we could just line up a date with
Playboy!She does...
Hi Lene & All, My feelings exactly Lene, and a great photo too. Would LOVE to see him a bit smaller so I could see ALL of him at once, if that is possible. ...
Hi Bini, That is a nice pony!! And as far as I can see - that area is a bit dark - she has a better gaskin. There is a smoother line - you don't see where...

Thank you Heather! So, please correct me if I'm wrong (Martina?), the gaskin is what we in German would call "Behosung". That word implies the word "Hose" and...
Hi all, very interesting reading all your comments on this and viewing the example pictures of the ponies/horses. Julia, you did a great job starting this...
Hi Denise and Sabine, Denise, you expressed your judgement very well and I totally agree. And Sabine, "Behosung" is what came into my mind too as soon as I...
I can now say that I have purchased a part breed Conni for my daughter. Hunter is part Highland/conni. He will arrive today. Islay doesnt know she is...
Somewhere in windows there is a preferance you can change so that the photos show up to fit your screen, or fit in a box. I can't remember where it is though....
I think you are right Bini: we call it "broek" in Dutch: that is also "trousers" in English. Those muscles should be long, so the hindleg can be strong and...

And here she is again. She is a bit big (1.52 m), I hope she will grow a little bit more, so I can ride her myself (I am 1.84 m.). By the way, she is from the...
