Name: Tobias aka Breakup In A Small Town by Sam Hunt

Breed: Appaloosa

Color: Dun semi-leopard

Special Run: SM Club 2021

Significance: None

Mr Tobias, the flashy and equally sweet looking Appy, has made his debut on my shelves today! His rich color is gorgeous, his girth area is unfortunately sunken in like Valerio last year - common issue for Tobias, and he's had an issue with very smudged spots since his spots are so small and intricate. I feel like mine has some better spots compared to others, he still has some smudgy areas in areas but not nearly as bad as some. I'm thankful he's a better looking model in his run, I think he's beautiful. I know quite a few people were not super excited seeing this color and pattern combo on this mold because they felt he was too similar to older regular runs on this mold, which I kind of agree with, but I think he's different enough so I really like him compared to the old ones people were comparing him too. I only wish his dun markings were darker and more clear, he's a darker shade I think so that camouflages his markings anyways. He's one of my favorite Stablemates Club runs because of how gorgeous he is to me.

I also bought This Could Be Heartbreak (Quarter Roy) a fabulous halter from MN Tack Shop and of course made the lead rope. I think the colors really pop on him, I wasn't sure how much I'd like it in person but I love it!

My next update won't be until Breyerfest or possibly after Breyerfest, I'm sitting on pins and needles waiting for that weekend to get here!

Good luck for those participating in Breyerfest, I hope you're able to get the horses you're wanting and have a great time!
