Buy the Arabian that you feel comfortable with & enjoy it

I agree with this!

I have the Camel Type Arab! "Officially" he is Egyptian x Crabbet, but he is 16hh of snake-face, Loreal head-tossing, grumpy Camel
And I absolutely adore him from the tips of those long ears to the base of his shiny little feet!

Definitely. Getting through the village with Spud can be quite time consuming as he has a lot of adoring public to pose in front of. One daddy of a little girl said that she always ran up the road to see Spud and called him her 'unicorn horse'.

Ahh – small world! Well Crystali is now in Prage and in foal I believe (may have had it by now) – she was recently sold on by Rikke who originally had her in Denmark … think there’s a stallion for sale on here by her too (my mares full brother) at the moment. x

I would whole-heartedly agree with those who say forget looking at strains and look at the horse in front of you. If he/she has the right build, conformation and temperament for you then their breeding won't matter.

And as for pure-bred versus part-bred, that's again for you to decide. I own both a pure and a part-bred. The PBA is pictured below. She's by a welshxarab stallion out of an anglo-arab mare and is just brilliant. 14.3, well-built and has a temperament die for!

My pure-bred is high % crabbet (89% I think) and a very different character. She is not as heavy set as some crabbets but still very typey. She's 14.2, beautifully put together and can be either very loving or a total diva!!!!
