This is an unofficial announcement presenting an absolutely exquisite stallion acquired from one of the best international breeders of quality Arabians.

We are proud to welcome Obsidian Dream S, who has been my lovely dark secret for a while now, and what a Dream he is!!

One of his sisters has sold to Poland and another sister has sold to France.

Pictured as a yearling:



A pedigree to die for:
And coming from prepotent, sought after bloodlines..

All Breed Pedigree Query

15.1 as a 2 year old.







A more formal announcement and others related to this one will come later. I couldn't torture you all any longer..lol

I love that last picture! Haha! All of them are gorgeous. I'm drooling over here. Sometime you're going to have to post pictures of all your little lovelies for all of us to drool over and bask in their light.

No fair! You now have three unbelievably gorgeous up-and-coming stallions now?!

He's amazing and his father and grandfather are both equally awe inspiring.

Can I ask you a very ignorant question Druydess? I've been stalking your thread about your two beautiful colts and really enjoying their pictures. I mean, holy cow! They're unbelievable. So is this guy. It's obvious that a lot of knowledgeable people have been carefully breeding towards these horses for a long time. But I have no idea what Arabs with breeding like these guy's are used for. Halter? Endurance? Western pleasure? Everything? I hope that doesn't seem insulting; I'm just clueless but terribly curious. ;) It's mostly stock horses and TBs where I live.


Congratulations on your new aquisition! :D

Congratulations on your new attainment! :D
Yeah-- I can hardly believe it myself. Events conspired to bring about this particular arrangement. I will wait and see how my two young boys mature before deciding whether they get to keep their danglies.. but thank you for your faith in their quality. Much thought went into those 2 crosses and I got what I'd hoped for.

Not ignorant at all.. questions are always good..

I prefer usable, tractable horses. Each one of these colts have different talents. Psynny is going to kick *** at dressage and Sporthorse. He has powerful, explosive, yet smooth movement. Echo is more of a MR candidate and has more flowing strides. Dream also would excel at Sporthorse, but could do ok in halter, though I don't breed for halter. He has beautiful up and down movement, so he could also compete in english classes and dressage. Much is still evolving in their abilities and movement, so these are just areas to explore at the moment.

Oh my stars. He is flipping gorgeous! And all three of those horses could be the exact same horse. I think I just got goosebumps.

That's one of the main reasons I purchased him. The prepotency in the line is blatantly obvious..

He combines exotic type with substance and power.

A friend of mine has his younger half-brother. SAME traits yet again even with a different Dam.

Well that's totally awesome. Congratulations!

Somehow I'm really gonna have to figure out how to get a mare and send her your way. Sort of on purpose was an accident kinda thing.
 
#26 ·
Thank you so much Lady. I appreciate how supportive you, and others, have been with regard to my ongoing journey into the Breeding world. It's been very educational.

That could be arranged. I do have some excellent mares that could be breed leased to the right person. :wink:

Thank you Celeste. Means a lot.

Well you did great me thinks. Make my heart go pitter-pat :wink:
Thanks BBB. A lot of research went into it. I'm looking forward to his Spanish blood complimenting my Spanish/Crabbet mares. That double El Shaklan and Sanadik El Shaklan certainly make themselves evident in this boy- and his Crabbet blood is a plus!!

BAHAHA .... Don't tempt me!!! Besides, I just recently read on an Arabian website that an Arabian will cost me at least 1K a month to own. Two would bankrupt me! ;)

When I had that boy in my stall just after he was transported from up North-- I had the same reaction. Totally speechless. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I could afford something so exquisite, but I guess if you work hard enough, and you stay true to your dreams, things fall into place..

Thanks for answering! I wish I could like that first part in bold specifically. They've got their work cut out for them, though I'm sure they're very much up to the challenge. I cannot wait to see pictures of Psynny doing dressage.*swoons*

...you will be sharing photos of these boys under saddle in five years, wont you? :lol:
 
#43 · (Edited)
I know what you mean. I look at the horse and then decide what he or she can do rather than make them something they're not.

Psynny is shaping up to be an amazing mover with THE calmest personality I've even seen on any horse of any age. He's inherited his sire's abilities, even down to the physical with the same freckle..lol

This is where he got his powerful movement:


And yes-- there will be pictures as long as the horses are up to it and progressing well. If not, they become pasture pets..

LOL-- thanks for keeping it under wraps.. ;)

Just one for now that I can find:



2000 heterozygous Black mare
~ Champion Producer ~

Sired by a black EJ Jabask son, out of homozygous black dam. Big bodied mare with smooth, exotic, exaggerated movement. Bey Shah, multiple *Bask lines.

*snorts* I was kinda wondering what the heck he was feeding them!

:rofl::rofl:

Needless to say, I didn't continue my journey any further into that website *snickers*
 
#36 ·
Not a great pic of her, but she is a gorgeous mare that outproduces herself. Her babies get exported immediately in spite of substantial, well-deserved purchase prices.

Yes-- he is heterozygous, which is what I wanted. He has a black and a chestnut gene which will cross well with my chestnut girls..

This is his sister as a yearling out of the same Dam-- sold to France:



The quality is stamped on every horse produced by this sire and dam...

Another sister as a yearling out of the same Dam-- sold to Poland:

Thanks! Then you see Arabians every day.
I really need to get better pics of his face; it's so exotic.
Blacks are lovely, but that's just a bonus compared to the body and head on this guy! There's some who just assume people breed only for color. With this guy, anyone who goes there certainly knows little about Arabians- he has too much quality to think it's all about color..
But that deep black sheen doesn't hurt..LOL

It is kind of nice to have a horse that embodies every young girl's dream-- The Black Stallion-- come to life.. :wink:
