Horse

Searching the web even 3 years ago one would hardly find the term original old style Morgan horse or old style Morgan horse or original old type Morgan horse or old type Morgan horse in a search engine or meta tag. Modern Morgan breeders were ashamed of the old type Morgan and their working roots. They choose to breed more to the Standardbred or Arab type. Today there are many meta tags with old type or old style Morgan. So have the numbers of the old type Morgan increased that much in such a short time? No. So why so many search engine meta tags advertising old type or old style Morgan? Because, people want them now.

Question 6: Why do we need the APOSMHA? Answer 6: For the same reason we need the AMHA to provide lots of horses going back to Justin Morgan's Figure and the Lippitt Club to select and limit those lines for a more pure Morgan, APOSMHA breeds POSMs for a particular type (being and appearance as a result of a specific purpose). Not a style. Style is whim. Here today and gone tomorrow. Like a woman's hat or a skirt's hem length or fashion.

Question 7: Do we need POSMs? Answer: Yes we do. Like the old bird hunter said (who used his dogs and they were not just for show), " I want my long paper pedigree hunting dogs to hunt." We preserve and breed for original old type Morgan horses that will do primary work.
