Congratulations. Wow, he’s wicked cute! Good luck.
Oh I love him! Congrats!
as usual, your Morgan is multi tasking in that last photo, playing attention to you but eyeing the photographer to make sure they are getting a shot of his good side
Joining in on the congratulations bandwagon.
Another adventure for all of us to follow
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations! He’s gorgeous
We actually named a solid chestnut that. Plain Brown Wrapper. I’m sure there are several dotting the countryside.
I haven’t finished reading thru. Name on the new boy?
I’m actually stuck on that!! His registered name is TSF Dark Roast Dreamer, so his current barn name is Java. However, I have a close friend whose horse is Java, and I don’t love the name for this guy. I was thinking of Joe (or Joey) to stick with the coffee vibe, but lately I’ve been thinking of him as a Pete or Petey…. any ideas??
(He comes home on Saturday!!!)
Starbuck?
It sounds like you (or he!) has already picked a name, Petey, or something that sounds a lot like that. Maybe refinements are coming…
Well, Peety would be the spelling if we are going with the Peet’s brand of coffee.
Brilliant!!
Well, there is always “Dunkin”
I like “Peety”, but Barista came to my mind when you first mentioned ‘coffee-related.’ But I DO prefer two syllable names, though.
My first Morgan is my avatar. She was purchased by my instructor from someone at the Battle Creek Hunt Club. She didn’t have papers when I bought her, but “Morgan people” came up to me at shows, asking about her breeding.
I LOVE bay horses.
I also like two syllable names, preferably ones that are easily understood when hollered at a distance, calling a horse in.
Mocha is a good name for a dark bay. I’m rather partial to Petey. So many good nicknames could come from it.
if the horse had been separated from its papers there is a simple $50 DNA test that can reunited the horse with its papers (test is free to 501.1c3 rescues attempting to prove a horse they are attempting to rescue is really a Morgan)

about the name, the barn I worked at in college had a schooling Morgan named Pete…he was nearly 30 and was a hoot has he knew what a half an hour was.
The lesions then were 30 minutes, if the rider wanted to ride longer or if was needing under instruction at 30 minutes Pete would halt were ever he was. The only way to get him to move was rider to dismount then if that rider was to continue they had to remount then Pete was set for another 30 minutes
