The 30 NR Rangerbreds are also listed.
Information included if known: Sire, dam, color, foal date, breeder/owner, and some photos included. [Lots of scanning to do yet.]

Mahatma Gandhi said that "the greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."

"Appaloosas are known for the spots that mark them and for leaving a mark on the people who love them."
from Appaloosa Trading Post/Johnsons of Simcoe's Chinook F-1610 fame.

"A good man will take care of his horses and dogs, not only while they are young,
but also when they are past their service."
Plutarch

About any Horse...
An old man was picking up objects off the beach and tossing them out into the sea.
A young man approached him and saw that the objects were starfish.
"Why in the world are you throwing starfish into the water?"
"If starfish are still on the beach when the tide goes out and the sun rises high in the sky, they will die," replied the old one.
"That is ridiculous. There are thousands of miles of beach and millions of starfish. You can't really believe that what you're doing could possibly make a difference!"
The wise old one picked up another starfish, paused thoughtfully, and remarked as he tossed it out into the waves,

"It makes a difference to this one."

What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

Nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a steady purpose
—a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye.
~ Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

***
When I can look Life in the eyes,
Grown calm and very coldly wise,
Life will have given me the Truth,
And taken in exchange — my youth.
~ Sara Teasdale

And this explains the existence of Appaloosa Territory. : )
Or...

"I have particularly enjoyed writing articles on noteworthy Appaloosas to make their importance known to new generations of Appaloosa enthusiasts. If I can, in some small way, keep the memories of these horses alive, then I feel I have succeeded in achieving immortality for them." ~Suzanne V. Pabst, Charity, Virginia

something along these lines as well....

*Appaloosas/Foundation Appaloosas:
Those Appaloosas that have not been excessively and purposefully outcrossed to other breeds;
Those descending with little outcrossing, from the original registered stock of the Appaloosa Horse Club, Inc,(ApHC);
The "real" Appaloosas as compared to those that are only "Appaloosa" by virtue of their registration with the ApHC;
Those that don't look like, act like, or have a pedigree of another breed;
Those that don't stand a chance in the breed halter classes, because they don't look like another breed;
"Foundation" as compared to "modern" type Appaloosas;
and Last, but not least, we mean the stereotypical Appaloosa -
those Appaloosas that the world has been brainwashed to view
as "big-headed, big-footed, rat tailed, ugly and crazy," but are far, Far, FAR, from that description.
See for yourself ;)
