Mares are the backbone of any successful breeding program.

There are two main "ingredients" when choosing them...

* Conformation

* Personality

     Your foal picks up most of its genetic and personality querks from the dam. If she is Alpha, the foal will inherit this position. If she cribs, guess what the foal will be doing in a year or two?

     It is for these reasons that we take our time choosing our Lorilyn Mares. I'm pretty happy with our choices thus far...

Domino's Cream Puding, aka Summer Love, is a registered Spotted Saddle Horse and will be registering TWHBEA as well. She carries Battle Colors, Ebony Masterpiece, Another Masterpiece, Midnight Sun and Gold Bond on her pedigree. What's even more amazing is the absolute fantastic personality of this mare. I have no fears that she will ever produce a difficult foal. It is not in her nature to be anything more than 100% willing to please, with a touch of cat's curiousity. Nothing scares this child. I think the world needs about one thousand more of her...

Here she is herding the babies around.


 

This is Lorilyn's Cinnamon Muffin, a smaller painted buckskin Tennuvian Mare, reg. SSHBEA. Mom adores this horse and I believe the adoration goes both ways, as she knows my mom is not an accomplished rider and takes very good care of her.


Muffin is an Alpha mare. She is currently training Stardust manners, but since he's so laid back, she doesn't have much of a job to do...
