Hey there! Well my name is Alanna and I'm new to the all sim world. I'm a twenty year old college student, I live with my amazing boyfriend and our little petting zoo. We have two dogs, Dixie & Chloe, two cats, Nelly & Andie, a few frogs & newts and of course my two horse Harry & Duncan. Both my horses are 3 year olds, Harry is a 17hh Appendix QH that I show in HUS, Hunt Seat Equitation and Working Hunter. Duncan is a 14.2hh QH who is basically just my trail horse : ] He's an extremely quiet boy that my boyfriend rides on a regular basis. In the past I have owned many different horses and have competed on the hunter/jumper circuit in my Province. I've shown up to the 1.10m jumpers, however this past year I have decided to take a break from that world and focus on the AQHA shows.
In the SIM world I have basically followed what I was doing in real life. Most of my SIM years have been spent in the hunter/jumper world however lately I have been focusing on the stock horse breeds. And that's what I will be focusing on in All Sim.
I'd appreciate any hints and tips on how to be successful here in All Sim and I look forward to getting to know some of you guys!

Welcome to All Sim! Im Tessa, I own and run SAI along with Southern Acres Inc (I believe it is linked in my signature). If you do happen to look at my stable site, ignore the mess and the fact that it is out of date. I focus on stock horses, arabians & ponies with a few morgans and thoroughbreds thrown in the mix. I hope you enjoy SAI! If you have any questions feel free to PM me or post.
Being successful in all sim is pretty much the same as being successful in games. As for tips, hit the showring lol, keep your horses updated (either with the show record or with the links to the shows), be sure to abide by any contracts or conditions that are placed on a horse when you purchase them and be sure to read all rules and any posts that say "Read Before Posting".
Welcome to All Sim & SAI! I hope you enjoy it here! Tessa

Hi hun. I'm Joelle. I'm part of the staff here at SAI and also at Blackwell Inc. I also run Darjeeling Stock Company, where we work with AQHA, APHA, Morgans, Arabians, and Welsh Ponies. I specialize in working western horses but have a variety of disciplines. I'm sure you'll love all-sim, I came out of a game after years and years in it and now I don't think I could ever go back. So welcome and nice to meet you.

Whoops, i'd swear i had posted in this thread... must have dreamt it. anyway.... HI! welcome to SAI and our lovely little all-sim community. I'm Julia, owner and operator of Caughey Inc as well as Sterling Kennels. I've played SIM games for over 10 years now, i think? somewhere around there. I've been out in the all-sim community for over a year now, and SAI is my homebase. Tess and the rest of the staff have made this a great experience for me, and hopefully we'll all do the same for you. Horse and dog wise, my primary focus is on warmbloods. I believe i own the most SWB's in the community, or at least i'm close. I'm also working on a breeding program involving Dutch Harness Horses, saddlebreds, and arabs. Canine wise, my focus is on Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Doberman Pinschers, and German Shepherds. Caughey Inc always has stock for sale, if you're interested in any stock breeds, arabs, warmbloods, etc etc, check out the Caughey Herd Reduction board here. Hope you enjoy yourself!
