Is this a new trend in sport horse breeding?

I just saw this and wondered.

No, I think it’s a new direction for the sport giraffe breeders…:yes:

Her mount could really benefit from some flatwork to soften up that poll!

Neck is too long, strange markings, ridden with a halter, reins are too long, not careful.
Will not use this stallion.
:D:D:D

good color

Wow, just wow. Who thinks of these things? I can see it: sitting around after the show drinking and maybe having a toke, and someone says, wonder if you could jump a (whatever), and soon it’s, how about a giraffe? Then, someone is betting someone and on it goes… or maybe it’s a charity event.

Siegi, loved your comment - did you put on your flame suit, those sport giraffe breeders will be after you (LOL)

Oh good heavens, I LOVE giraffes! (With a ridiculous passion, they are adorable, my family teases me about it. Mercilessly. I have giraffe pix and posters in the house, among the ones of my horses…)

When I showed this to my teenaged daughter, her response was “you WISH”! :smiley:

I absolutely could NOT believe my eyes when I saw this photo!:eek::eek::eek:

A good “horse” is any color :)…it’s a MARKETABLE color, xsalute <ROTFL>…

Who cares if it has questionable style and limited scope? It is blingy. :lol:

Lots of hunter breeders will want to breed one just like it. :winkgrin:

Yes, but if you are marked (and built) like that, you had better lay down a PERFECT trip…
