British Breeding — A Novice Tale

It is day 168 of Tia's gestation. Tia is a Shire cross Warmblood - 50 percent Warmblood and 50 percent Shire. She is in foal to a KWPN Stallion with Dreamboy bloodlines. She is five years old and, being a Shire cross, I have taken the opportunity to put her in foal as she reaches her final stages of maturation, in the hopes of reducing the risk of injury or impacting her heavy frame.
