Re: Sabino or Splash?

Sorry, bad photos ... [u]I think her moving as the phone took the photo made her face distort, it looks crooked[/u] haha! [/quote]
I thought that, too! Teach me to look at photos first and then read! :rofl
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Ok, I thought splash with legs and sabino with face, so I"m glad to see others thought so, too :) Here are some pics that show her off much better :)

Re: Sabino or Splash?
She's lovely congrats !
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Thank you! :)
Re: Sabino or Splash?
She is a cute little thing. ...and I like your smile!, you look so proud of her...
Dumb question:
Is the Arab/Welsh cross called anything? Like the way TB/Arabs are called Anglo-Arab?
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Welsh/Arabs are called Welaras...at least that's all I've ever heard them called.
she's a real cutie
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Yup, they are Welaras. To be a Welara, they have to be only Arab and Welsh, but the percentage can vary from 1/8 to 7/8 (so could be 1/8 arab and 7/8 welsh, or 3/4 arab and 1/4 welsh, ect).

Re: Sabino or Splash?
What's wrong with welsh/arab ?
Why mash the names together?
I guess Mable would have been a newconnamutly and Mary a Clydes-dales.
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Not totally sure of the point but have to say my entire PB programme was based on Welsh / Arab crosses, all from the Coed Coch / Rushti lines so all, without exception, totally nuts!!
God I loved riding them, you never knew what was going to happen!! :rofl
Re: Sabino or Splash?
She looks very sweet. I agree, most likely both splash & sabino, those socks are very straight edged.
Here is in Australia she could be registered with the Arabian society as an Arabian Pony
& with the Welsh Society as a Part Welsh.
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Oh gosh they have names for everything - Welara, Morab, Pintabian, Araloosa, Quarab, NSH. About the only one that's escaped so far is the WB cross.
Re: Sabino or Splash?
LOL, oh we have those in OZ Maigray, they are called Arabian Warmbloods.
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Ali is half arab but I've never called her "pintabian", for some reason that term always makes me think of tobianos :? . I just call her a pinto arab cross (cause I've no idea what the other side is).
Re: Sabino or Splash?
No, the Pintabian actually has to have a certain percentage of Arabian blood - 97 or 98% - something like that. There's a registry and everything. Or there was. Not sure now.
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Talking of which I love these mares little reverse ankle socks !

ah! maybe that explains why I think of tobiano, seems like that would be the easiest and flashiest pattern to breed that with.
Re: Sabino or Splash?
Well, with that cross it could, of course, be both!!
If you want a choice I would plump for Sabino, but I have only very rarely seen a Welsh that even looked as if it did not have Splash as well, and funnily enough Welsh seems to suppress the blue eyes, maybe generations of prejudice form people that also like splashy markings??
