Hello listers,
well did I have a great day or what!
I was planning to take Quinn to his first eventing show in spring, but then
this schooling show came up at Travis Air Force base Equestrian center...I

Hello Lois,
Excellent questions! I asked about this myself a few years ago and ended up
having a few thoughts to ponder, myself. At that point in time, apparently
Fjords were not selling for the same prices as here in NA, so the majority of
the cost we

Hi Lois,
interesting question. Just wanted to mention that in Norway, selling a
low-quality Fjord abroad is not something serious fjord lovers/breeders
would want to do. We do have a certain kind of responsibility and sense of
honour for

It is possible they came from PMU farms and are all
crosses. I know of some people who are breeding up to

We saw the Fjords at Hermiston today also. The story we got was that they were
from a dude string in Canada. Two of them looked like they had some rough
handling recently. Both had sores in the corners of their mouths with one of
them even bleeding. A

Hi Shawna,
I have two words to help in your saddle dilemma - "Ortho Flex". I too have
had several problems fitting a very wide, flat withered horse (although not a
Fjord). After numerous trials and saddle "try-buys", I ended up with an
Ortho Flex. You

Hi DT,
I used to live in the Tri-Cities (right outside Hermiston, Oregon) and have
been to the auction numerous times (with a QH breeder/trainer I worked for,
when he went to purchase/sell his stock). On ~ 5 different occassions, I've
noticed Fjords goi

I'm at the horse auction down in Hermiston OR this weekend. I stopped by
last night to take a look at the horses to discover what looks like 5
fjords (one might be a fjord cross). Unfortunately, I couldn't find a
catalof and it was late at night so I

I have a Western saddle, of unknown brand, that has a really wide tree, and,
I think 16 inch seat. Bought it for a flat-backed Percheron/TB cross. VERY
heavy. Sueded leather everywhere. If someone near Northern California is
interested, I mi

Let me preface this by saying I'm not being confrontational or critical of
anyone. Curious would be the word. Especially as a former Morgan breeder who
never made a dime with well-bred homegrown foals. Recently I was shopping for
a Fjord mare

ShawnaI have a Colorado saddle that fits my
fjords... It has a 16" seat.. I paid $900... It is

I like the 13.3, drafty Fjords, with lots of bone, common sense and calm
disposition. I have a lot of friends who are fair weather riders, their
horses don't handle less than perfect conditions well. I can go out solo in
the back woods and
