_ This is Red and Zeke (their reg. names escape me at the moment) in training to be a team.They are my husbands horses so get used pretty sporadically. I said I was going to get them going better this year but .... life got in the way. There is always next summer lol This is a head shot of Dyna (Reignmakers Playing with Dynamite) She was an orphan and lived in our house for 3 weeks. She is only 28.5" or so tall and is trained to drive. She never fails to attract attention when we take her out. She is a lot of fun to drive because she seems to enjoy it so thoroughly when we choose her. Finally is Cruiser (SMO Smokin Hot) he is as green as the grass he walks on in this picture. It was his first drive ever and I was grinning from ear to ear while we drove. I had waited for him to mature enough mentally that he was ready for the work and it seemed like I'd been waiting for this day forever. He is 6 years old in this picture (taken last year) There are 2 others,Bucky, my buckskin mare who is 16 and my go to driving horse for beginners or to show and Ranger, a silver dapple gelding and Bucky's best pal who has only been driven once in the 3 years I've owned him but who I'm told is well trained to drive. I can't seem to find the pictures I know I have of them on my computer. _

Thanks astradawn. Dyna hasn't changed much since that show. Hardly even grew. We were trying then to sell her but were always worried that a new owner would want to breed her and she is so small that she would be at risk unless a truly tiny stallion were used. The last person offered to basically 'take her off my hands' and it was then I realized I really didn't want to sell her. So she learned to drive and will be with us as long as we are able to care for her. I don't think I showed Cruiser at that show so I don't suppose you've met him or the other 2 who we refer to as the twins lol. They aren't really twins of course and not show quality really (altho Cliff has driven Zeke in a show- the first for both of them) They really have always just been here to fulfil Cliff's wish to drive a 'team'
