The Horses of Loomis Acres.
Welcome to Loomis Acres and the Loomis Acres Showroom.
Knitting and Weaving own Loomis Acres and the Showroom where we strive to breed, produce and compete only the finest quality horses, with particular emphasis on the Belgian breed. Our horses are amongst the stockiest and strongest on the game, bred primarily for their unparalleled Log Pulling ability. In recent times our horses have diversified into Marathon Driving, Driven Dressage, Obstacle Driving and most recently Hunter and Dressage, all with great success. This thread will be used to showcase horses deemed exciting as breeding prospects, showing prospects or even sheer beauty. Below are detailed the goals for our farms, including current successes in bold:

Re: The Belgians of Loomis Acres.
Introducing this little girl who I believe to be the first Trait du Nord on the game thus far. She is named after the late great Rosa Bonheur, a French artist who is perhaps best known for her painting entitled 'The Horse Fair'. It seemed only fitting that a French breed should receive a truly great French name.
Bonheur
She will form the beginnings of a new venture into this breed.

Nagrada
Just broken Chernata Daliyah's world record for Log Pulling with a staggering 59.08 feet, it would be fantastic to achieve 60 feet with one of our Belgians.

Re: The Draught Horses of Loomis Acres.
Just bred the first Auxois on the game and have decided to give the Belgians a rest, whilst I focus on getting true to breed examples of all of the nine French draught horse breeds.
So here's my little Beignet (all my Auxois are named after French Patisserie, of course!), who will begin my line of true to life Auxois horses, of a heavy breed with predominantly bay and bay roan colouring.
I'm currently breeding Percherons also, which I hope to be largely grey. I'm just embarking on some Comtois horses, which for the time being I am happy to be bay or chestnut, but will eventually be mostly flaxen chestnut.
Next on the list are Ardennais and Boulonnais. Always on the lookout for horses to breed/buy!

Re: The Draught Horses of Loomis Acres.
Total gloat, I am in love with this little bull of a horse at the moment, his conformation is hilariously bulky and his little snubby face is to die for! Hopefully he'll pass down a few of those genes to my Traits.

Got a new favourite boy at the moment, introducing...
