I'm going to do regarding them. I really, really liked the Chocolate
Haflinger, how she was put together. Conformation wise she was good or what
I want. Nice chest, nice legs, beautiful hip, beautiful face. Her mane is
blonde but does have dark hairs in it, so that I wasn't overjoyed about.
She also has a hind white anklet. Is it true that a white marking on a leg
is not ideal on a Haflinger? The lighter chestnut I wouldn't purchase as
she had a conformation flaw. I'm just not sure about the Chocolate girl
though, I really like her, but. but. but...
I want to make sure that I am purchasing a youngster that meets and are
favorable to the Haflinger breed standards. She's young, I'm not sure where
or what I will be doing with her in the future so I want to make sure she's
suitable for whatever endeavor we venture into. Please don't jump on me for
saying this but I could find a Haflinger that was an ideal of the breed, I
wouldn't be opposed to having a colt from her in the long future. I'm not
interested in being a breeder, but I've always wanted to have a mare bred
and keep the baby. I know it really wouldn't matter since my plan would be
to keep her but we all know plans change, life happens, etc. and I want to
make sure what I'm buying is within favorable breed standards.
Haflingers are so rare here in Northern MN I feel like I should purchase her
just because of that, but I'm just hung up on the dark hairs in the mane &
the white anklet. Does anyone have advice to share on that? Are these
things that are frowned upon?
Jen in MN (Who is torn on what to do about that little Chocolate filly that
she really likes and really hoping this great group of people have some
sound advice to offer as they usually do)
