It is time to begin long, but rewarding task of find a stud for your mare.

First of all, take your time. Finding right stud for your mare will give you a better chance of ending up with type of foal you want. Be patient. Breeding a horse is expensive so be sure to understand what you are getting yourself, and your mare, into. There are so many things to consider before proceeding. Determine what sort of foal you want. In comparison to your mare do you want a bigger or a smaller foal? Do you want a taller or shorter foal? What purpose do you want it to fulfil? Do you want a working breed or a horse for pleasure riding? Do you want to alter any of your mare's physical or personality traits? You need to have clear answers to all these questions in order to find ideal stud for your mare, that is, stud that will help produce foal you want.
