- After years of searching for my dream horse, I finally found him!
Meet Zapphire, a very rare buckskin Swedish warmblood stallion with four perfect white socks and incredible bloodlines.
This is a dream come true that, however, almost ended early as within a week of bringing him to his new home, he was found in his pasture struggling to walk and balance. Oh, did I mention that he is located on the OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD!
Thanks for watching! This video was made in collaboration with my horse blog, Stable Talk - your trusted source for all things equine.. Whether you’re a seasoned equestrian or just starting your journey into the world of horses, we’re here to support and guide you every step of the way.

WOW he's gorgeous, so happy you mixed the herd with older horses. Best of luck, can't wait to see how he turns out!
OMG raleigh im a big fan love you ❤❤❤❤
OMG RALEIGH I DIDNT EXPECT TO SEE U HERE Btw sent u a video of a Horses hooves catching on fire because they were running the horse on a highway😭
OMG RELEIGH I JUST SAW YOUR COMMENT WHEN I WAS LOOKING IN THE COMMENTS❤️
I did not expect to see your comment in this video
Me to I can’t wait to see how he turns out!
Zephyr would be lovely for him, it's a warm, gentle breeze.
They have sapphire mines in Montana in the US - Montana would be a cool barn name. Not sure how it sounds in Sweden but Montana is a beautiful state, just like him!
@@j.elizabeth4621 I didn’t know that!! That’s a great suggestion
Wow, I'm from Montana! Its not too often we get recognized!
So sad when they don’t wean them before they are sold, so stressful and traumatic for the young horse. He is beautiful though.
@@CreekValleyCritters I know!! So stressful, 😥
That was my first thought…….
Agreed. He's not a stallion - He's a colt. No one would geld at that age.
The conformation in the thumbnail and the title scared me.. I was worried it was another inexperienced horse person making an irresponsible decision.
Mind instantly changed. I love the choice of turning him out with other horses, older and younger to teach him the proper manners. I do hope that you're open to gelding him if as he ages he does not simmer down and become respectful- With stallions, especially performance horses they need to have a good mind on them or the conformation and color isn't worth the breeding (IMO).
He's gorgeous and I'm thrilled to follow your journey together.
@@clogl yes 100% agree, he’ll be a gelding unless he can be approved. I think his temperament will be ok as his bloodlines are famous for more “calm/well behaved” stallions but you never know. 🤗
Woah 1.14k subs?!!! Congrats on 1k!!! Glad you were able to get this horse! Hope you have an amazing journey together!
@@rexietielrex2121 thank you ❤️❤️❤️
@@stable-talk omg!!! 2k subscribers!! I’m so happy for you! When I first subscribed only a month or 2 or maybe even 3 ago you only had 43 subscribers making me your 44th! Nice to see a fellow equine getting the attention and subscribers from the algorithm that they deserve. Most of the time it’s online video gamers that get all the attention… ❤❤❤❤can’t wait to see your future journeys!!
Sweet! I'm in northern California - I do dressage. I have PRE's. My foal was born near Murietta and I picked him up about 3 weeks ago. I also develop my own horses. San Diego has lots of Dressage trainers so you are lucky if you go in that direction. I'm in a bit of a training desert where I live so I have to travel to trainers and shows. Good luck with your new boy !
Congratulations on your new colt. I also have imported 2 horses from Europe for Dressage. While watching your video I noticed something that I wanted to mention to you and this is purely for learning and not intended to shame. I have been in horses for over 30 years and in the boarding business for 22 year. I noticed in the video that when the horses were on pasture that there are dandelions going to seed. Dandelion and False Dandelion are a HUGE PROBLEM all over the World. We have been on our acreage for 30 years and they were not an issue then. Dandelions cause ulcers in horses and is very expensive to treat and painful for the horse causing all kinds of behaviour problems. You can google it, I have seen it first hand. But false dandelion which is hard to differentiate from Dandelion causes stringhalt in horses. I also have experienced this in 2 horses over the years. The plant affects the nerve endings in the hind end where I have seen a vet take pointy scissors and push down an inch on the horses hind quarters and they do not feel it. The horse literally cannot walk. The horse when it moved walked in a stringhalt manner but eventually they cannot walk. The horses need high doses of an Epileptic drug and many months to recover and not all do. Pasture management is very time consuming for the owner of the facility as it requires spraying to eradicate the noxious weed. The flower has already gone to seed and each flower carries many thousands of seed heads and eventually you will have more flower than grass. Many horse owners are not aware of the toxicity that they have on our equines. All the best with your beautiful boy. No shade only for learning to keep our loved ones healthy ❤
Wow! He's stunning. I' m sure you will have great success with him.
Thank you so much!!
Such a gorgeus horse! Zafferano is such a fine-tempered and beautiful stallion. Most of his offsprings inherit some good gaits and of course his unique colour. If keeping him as a stud and breeding with him in the US, it would hopefully cause a huge impact in the breeding industry, as SWB arent too common in America. I would love to see the bloodline of some of the finest SWB stallions, continue its legacy across the world!
He's my realistic dream horse too, I love his look.
But I really really love Duns. My true dream horse would be a Bay Dun with very apparent wild markings. I LOVE the leg striping. The dorsal stripe. And like your little stallion, that frosting in his hair is just so cute. Buckskins are so pretty, but Bay Duns are my absolute favorite. Apricot Duns close by.
I saw someone suggest Montana as his barn name which I think would suit him very well. I also like the name saffron for him, matches his vibe I’d think. So happy for you, hope everything goes well in the future on your journey with him
He looks amazing! Ive also bought myself a special coloured horse c: a buckskin warmblood mare she's dutch german warmblood, gonna go with eventing for her gobstopper. Sometimes they get dark sometimes they get really light, winter kinda greyish. I find it allot of fun and its really unique
@@Lonuw oooh I would love to see photos of her!!
So late for me to comment on this video now, but how you pronounced Eskilstuna and Växjö really impressed me.
Yay! Another horse channel with quality videos! Definitely following!
He’s gorgeous! I’m so excited to follow this journey.
Hes so Handsome i love how he carries himself . He has a super great run in the field .
Love your videos so far, can't wait for more!
Wow how exciting, getting your dream horse! He's a beauty forsure! Enjoy your new baby!
I love him he's beautiful ❤️😍
He is stunning!
Congratulations on such a beautiful foal! Happy I got this channel recommended instant follow.
What a cute lil baby! Adorable!
Omg hes absoultly gorgeous!! I bet u will have a very bright future with him❤
you got such a beautiful horse
maybe keep a "Z" name for him like Zephyr which means "west wind" (he is going west after all) it also means "gentle breeze"
Gorgeous Horse
I wish you well on you journey with him😊🎉❤
So happy for you!
Thank you Bob!
Joseph Newcomb Dressage is on youtube, he and his business partner buy horses in Europe all the time. He is the trainer, she's the buyer and seller. They are in southern California.
Good luck with him, absolutely beautiful! I am looking into importing from Europe where im from to Arizona so will be really interested to follow your journey with this!
Such a stunner 😍
Omg I’m moving to sand Diego and I’m going to ride there!!! Well continue it but still I may see you!
ahhh his name is kinda similar to Sunfyre, like the dragon from house of the dragon🫣
he’s so pretty!
I’m also a Swede living in California. Underbar häst!
He is very beautiful and with those paces I really would explore doing dressage with him. Eventing would be awesome for him I think.
hi Raleigh!
He reminds me of irish cream. Or coffee. What about Bailey?
And on the other hand, he looks like the sahara desert winds, so maybe Sahel or Scirocco (english: Sirocco) - his sire has an italian name too
Whoops not to add a second comment but I have more thoughts lol!
In terms of dressage- For eventing and any kind of jumping, dressage is the base to build off of. I used to hate dressage, I found it boring. I took a few good lessons (I wish I could've continued) on nice horses when I was young and feeling their movement and talent was phenomenal. I firmly believe in dressage being the basis for any english horse sport- Flying changes, extending and collecting, building energy up in movements, learning long and low and relaxation, acceptance of the aids and bit... All of this contribute so much to how a horse jumps. The biggest thing for me though, is how much it can build their muscles in the best way when doing it correctly. When done properly, a base in dressage teaches self carriage and use of the back and belly muscles. I started working on western pleasure & dressage type training with my lease mare and it's done wonders for her fitness and willingness rather then just polework and jumping. Even more then that though, groundwork did the most for her.
Just thoughts that I'm sure you know about, but from a former dressage hater, dressage is so important for young horses to know the basics of and with a good trainer I have a feeling you will LOVE dressage on your stallion.
For names:
Zappe could totally work in English I think, as a show name (or part of one) and barn name could be something like Spark/y, Zap, Lightning, Storm- A bit basic but could be cute.
What other names do you have for your horses?
He sort of reminds me of medieval magic, elves.. Like lord of the rings type stuff. Maybe you could name him after that.
Best wishes!
@@clogl yes it’s the foundation, I hope I can build more of a passion for it now when I have a horse bred for it!! And thank you so much for barn name suggestions 😃
HE IS AMAZING 🤩 new sub.
@@user-ps1os4ee5o thank you ❤️❤️
We have heard so much bad things from the equimax wormer so we are so careful when buying wormers and have never gotten the equimax as a friends horses have passed from it.
@@Sienna_Equestrian101 that’s crazy!! Yeah I’ll never use it again
@@stable-talk I was so scared when you mentioned the symptoms he was having, in the video he looked very bad. I'm glad all went well and was just like a reaction.
He’s beautiful! I’d probably name him after a plant native to Sweden.
@@daphne10120 good idea!!
asså han är en jätta fin häst, congrats!
I live in Sweden
Stunnning! Will he be used as a stud?
Warmblood stallions keep the stunning spirit. Geld them and you always end up with the equine stotally submisive and obedient Labrador version of the horse.
I've come to realise it's all about narcissism and vanity.
Really sad.
He's an absolutely beautiful boy, bless him.❤
Is boarding a horse cheaper in Sweden? Congrats also! He’s beautiful.
Yes much cheaper than California! Still expensive though if you are near Stockholm
a cool name would be Zappalot haha
would probobly name him sapphire but call him zappe still (because its a really nice name)
Wow vart i växjö? så fin han är!
Stojby 😃
Are you going to breed him?
If I can get him approved, then yes. So a huge MAYBE :)
@@stable-talk ok
He would make some very cute babies :)
Är du svensk?
Might be called dunn or a daple great not sure or a buvkskin
He is bred from a bay and a palomino so he is a buckskin.
@@stormmoster maybe 🤔
Wish I was a Dressage lover , but I've seen to many bad riders and owners that abuse the horses
I absolutely dont think that his "frosting" will disappear! There is a gene buckskins can have - which I can't remember how to spell! Lets try orguti... something like that...
What a cruelty...Oh he's so beautiful, come on let's bring him to our home, which is thousands of miles away. Who gives a fck about the insane amount of stress for him. But hey, at least you "feel sorry" for him.
Horses are shipped internationally everyday.
@@j.elizabeth4621 Didnt know thats an excuse. Some of the biggest dressage rider use hyperflexion in their daily training, its fine then ig.
@@hitago4551 This seems to be the wrong channel to voice your opinion on then, since we are in agreement.
Wish you luck on your journey with your new horse ❤
Thank you so much!!
