Excellent point Mic -- I think the Pasos regularly show Momma's with their babies gaiting right along beside them. At least, I've seen pictures showing this. Also, I would think it would be the person evaluating's great advantage to see what Momma has under the hood in guessing what baby might have. (And I do think they would definitely be GUESSING!) Well kids, we don't have to support these things. We can be wiser and more discriminating with both our dollars and our horses. Sometimes I am just so embarrassed as to what is done within this breed. . . It's like the breed is riddled with, and ruled by, complete idiots with no regard for the horses at all, let alone real "expertise" in anything. Yesterday was the disgusting video of running them down a corridor of fire and today it's chasing babies around. Oy. -- Renee M. in Michigan
