If you know anything more than the page said about adopting a STB, please email me and tell me. Also I want a horse really bad, but I haven't been riding very long and I hope to do cross country, dressage, or jumping, do think a STB would be right for me because I don't really have any extra money to buy a horse I was just thinking adopting might work. Thanx - Ashton

Hi Laura I also have a wonderful STB who I think the world of, He tries anything I ask (almost)He has become a fantastic trail horse,we did the show thing last year and this year we're driving too I can't believe more people haven't discovered the many t lents of this breed! And this great guy raced until he was 9 ,206 races! Still plenty of life left for pleasure horse pursuits we may try competitive trail riding or driving. Keep on enjoying those standardbreds!

I have found a new path to skip down,the Standardbred. I recently rode two STB's,and found them totally addictive to ride. I've come to find out STB's are more then just racers,but pure fun and love. Keep up this wonderful page laura,can't wait to come ba k and visit again! From one STB lover to another, Colby

Thank you, Laura, for a fine website. I've adopted an unraced 2yo gelding (he was broken to harness but crossfires at the pace) that was destined for the proverbial can of dog food. Won't break him in for another year but he's a darling. Work on a bree ing stud which is how I got him - for nothing, I might add. He was knocked around by the trainer so it took a little while to gain his trust but now he follows me around like a spaniel. I do endurance riding as a sport (and stbds aren't represented near y enough in that) but have a real love for dressage, not that I know what I'm doing! Keep up the good work. I think if enough people get out there with 'doing' stbds, acting as ambassadors for the breed, there will be fewer that are canned at the end of heir career - and there are far too many of them! Cheers.

We really enjoyed reading about your three beautiful horses. We have three horses also. One of our horses sounds like Shane in that he's a little too high strung to be ridden safely. He's getting fat too! Sandstorm is a very lucky horse and it's wonde ful that you were able to find him and buy him before he was sent off. Best wishes in all your future activities and shows, and good luck with your horses.

Very nice to see you devote so much to standardbreds. I live in the states, but I ride in a Sommerset Austrailian stock saddle. I've heard of Austrailian Pinto or spotted standardbreds, other than this coloring, are there any differences between America and Aussie Stbs? Just curious. Nannette

It was great to find your page after spending some hours surfing through American pages. I am passionate about "recycled" Standardbreds after having owned one now for nearly 4 years. I bought my mare from a girl who took in neglected horses and then negle ted them herself. She had been a riding horse for a few years before I bought her (for $600) and I am told she has done some dressage and jumping - although I think someone forgot to tell her that! We don't compete but enjoy a bit of schooling when we hav time and plenty of pleasure riding around the 11,000 acre property that we live on. I'd love to stay in touch with you - as I am very keen to make contact with other converts and eventually I would love to get another STB - for my husband.
