You should post pics of the horses. I'm a horse guy too (more as a minor hobby and I'm not a great rider honestly) and I'd love to see your herd. Nan should post some pics too.

Shoney D. Pony. Trained for saddle but not ridden much. Trainer had his 8 year old ride her and herd cattle. Pulls a cart very nicely. Dumped on me by my sister who made my mom buy her. Seems to have some Welsh or something in her because her neck belongs to a stallion.
Dutchess the paint. Recently Deceased (Colic). Low on personality but that made for a reliable "anyone can ride" horse. Dumped on me by my sister who made my mom buy her.
Ajax the mini mule. He's pretty "meh". Seems untrainably stubborn and follows Shoney D. Pony around all the time. Lets me pet him mostly at night.
Sasha the dog of course.
Lady Liberty, a morgan. Short mane makes her look like a filly even though she's not. Professionally trained. Nervous when out on the trail alone.
Summerfield's Spring Beauty (Mare-ilyn). She's a Lambert/Lippit Morgan, which is the last of the old-school drafty Morgans. Excellent horse, but lost an eye a decade back. Trots faster than most horses canter but her transition from there is to full running gallop. I've seen her canter twice in my life and I don't think I've seen anyone make her do it on purpose. Pulls carts but its been a while. Drifts to the right when not following other horses due to the eye.
