They have sapphire mines in Montana in the US - Montana would be a cool barn name. Not sure how it sounds in Sweden but Montana is a beautiful state, just like him!
Seriously , wow he is flashy and eye catchy and not just his appearance but a personality that makes him stand out all the more. I got extremely nervous when he was having walking issues as i had thought the worse, wobblers disease but overly relieved when you made certain it was just a temporary medicinal reaction. So glad all worked out and can't wait to see how your investments in him progress.
he is absolutely gorgeous, his movements are so smooth and his coat color is just stunning!! i wish you two the best, i'm sure you'll make an amazing team:))
Such a gorgeus horse! Zafferano is such a fine-tempered and beautiful stallion. Most of his offsprings inherit some good gaits and of course his unique colour. If keeping him as a stud and breeding with him in the US, it would hopefully cause a huge impact in the breeding industry, as SWB arent too common in America. I would love to see the bloodline of some of the finest SWB stallions, continue its legacy across the world!
@@stable-talk omg!!! 2k subscribers!! I’m so happy for you! When I first subscribed only a month or 2 or maybe even 3 ago you only had 43 subscribers making me your 44th! Nice to see a fellow equine getting the attention and subscribers from the algorithm that they deserve. Most of the time it’s online video gamers that get all the attention… ❤❤❤❤can’t wait to see your future journeys!!
Sweet! I'm in northern California - I do dressage. I have PRE's. My foal was born near Murietta and I picked him up about 3 weeks ago. I also develop my own horses. San Diego has lots of Dressage trainers so you are lucky if you go in that direction. I'm in a bit of a training desert where I live so I have to travel to trainers and shows. Good luck with your new boy !
The conformation in the thumbnail and the title scared me.. I was worried it was another inexperienced horse person making an irresponsible decision. Mind instantly changed. I love the choice of turning him out with other horses, older and younger to teach him the proper manners. I do hope that you're open to gelding him if as he ages he does not simmer down and become respectful- With stallions, especially performance horses they need to have a good mind on them or the conformation and color isn't worth the breeding (IMO). He's gorgeous and I'm thrilled to follow your journey together.
@@clogl yes 100% agree, he’ll be a gelding unless he can be approved. I think his temperament will be ok as his bloodlines are famous for more “calm/well behaved” stallions but you never know. 🤗
If you could approve him then it would be amazing. You have good hand and he's gorgeous so he can be a good breeder If not, nothing happened But I would like to see how people work with stallions bc they're often demonized
He's my realistic dream horse too, I love his look. But I really really love Duns. My true dream horse would be a Bay Dun with very apparent wild markings. I LOVE the leg striping. The dorsal stripe. And like your little stallion, that frosting in his hair is just so cute. Buckskins are so pretty, but Bay Duns are my absolute favorite. Apricot Duns close by.
Warmblood stallions keep the stunning spirit. Geld them and you always end up with the equine stotally submisive and obedient Labrador version of the horse. I've come to realise it's all about narcissism and vanity. Really sad. He's an absolutely beautiful boy, bless him.❤
I saw someone suggest Montana as his barn name which I think would suit him very well. I also like the name saffron for him, matches his vibe I’d think. So happy for you, hope everything goes well in the future on your journey with him
Congratulations on your new colt. I also have imported 2 horses from Europe for Dressage. While watching your video I noticed something that I wanted to mention to you and this is purely for learning and not intended to shame. I have been in horses for over 30 years and in the boarding business for 22 year. I noticed in the video that when the horses were on pasture that there are dandelions going to seed. Dandelion and False Dandelion are a HUGE PROBLEM all over the World. We have been on our acreage for 30 years and they were not an issue then. Dandelions cause ulcers in horses and is very expensive to treat and painful for the horse causing all kinds of behaviour problems. You can google it, I have seen it first hand. But false dandelion which is hard to differentiate from Dandelion causes stringhalt in horses. I also have experienced this in 2 horses over the years. The plant affects the nerve endings in the hind end where I have seen a vet take pointy scissors and push down an inch on the horses hind quarters and they do not feel it. The horse literally cannot walk. The horse when it moved walked in a stringhalt manner but eventually they cannot walk. The horses need high doses of an Epileptic drug and many months to recover and not all do. Pasture management is very time consuming for the owner of the facility as it requires spraying to eradicate the noxious weed. The flower has already gone to seed and each flower carries many thousands of seed heads and eventually you will have more flower than grass. Many horse owners are not aware of the toxicity that they have on our equines. All the best with your beautiful boy. No shade only for learning to keep our loved ones healthy ❤
He looks amazing! Ive also bought myself a special coloured horse c: a buckskin warmblood mare she's dutch german warmblood, gonna go with eventing for her gobstopper. Sometimes they get dark sometimes they get really light, winter kinda greyish. I find it allot of fun and its really unique
Good luck with him, absolutely beautiful! I am looking into importing from Europe where im from to Arizona so will be really interested to follow your journey with this!
We have heard so much bad things from the equimax wormer so we are so careful when buying wormers and have never gotten the equimax as a friends horses have passed from it.
@@stable-talk I was so scared when you mentioned the symptoms he was having, in the video he looked very bad. I'm glad all went well and was just like a reaction.
Joseph Newcomb Dressage is on youtube, he and his business partner buy horses in Europe all the time. He is the trainer, she's the buyer and seller. They are in southern California.
Whoops not to add a second comment but I have more thoughts lol! In terms of dressage- For eventing and any kind of jumping, dressage is the base to build off of. I used to hate dressage, I found it boring. I took a few good lessons (I wish I could've continued) on nice horses when I was young and feeling their movement and talent was phenomenal. I firmly believe in dressage being the basis for any english horse sport- Flying changes, extending and collecting, building energy up in movements, learning long and low and relaxation, acceptance of the aids and bit... All of this contribute so much to how a horse jumps. The biggest thing for me though, is how much it can build their muscles in the best way when doing it correctly. When done properly, a base in dressage teaches self carriage and use of the back and belly muscles. I started working on western pleasure & dressage type training with my lease mare and it's done wonders for her fitness and willingness rather then just polework and jumping. Even more then that though, groundwork did the most for her. Just thoughts that I'm sure you know about, but from a former dressage hater, dressage is so important for young horses to know the basics of and with a good trainer I have a feeling you will LOVE dressage on your stallion. For names: Zappe could totally work in English I think, as a show name (or part of one) and barn name could be something like Spark/y, Zap, Lightning, Storm- A bit basic but could be cute. What other names do you have for your horses? He sort of reminds me of medieval magic, elves.. Like lord of the rings type stuff. Maybe you could name him after that. Best wishes!
@@clogl yes it’s the foundation, I hope I can build more of a passion for it now when I have a horse bred for it!! And thank you so much for barn name suggestions 😃
He reminds me of irish cream. Or coffee. What about Bailey? And on the other hand, he looks like the sahara desert winds, so maybe Sahel or Scirocco (english: Sirocco) - his sire has an italian name too
I absolutely dont think that his "frosting" will disappear! There is a gene buckskins can have - which I can't remember how to spell! Lets try orguti... something like that...
What a cruelty...Oh he's so beautiful, come on let's bring him to our home, which is thousands of miles away. Who gives a fck about the insane amount of stress for him. But hey, at least you "feel sorry" for him.
