What do the last days of April mean? Summer is almost here! for those in the Northern Hemisphere that means sunny skies and warm weather, and hopefully this year, outdoor sports. Over the years Amaretto has released Summer LEs, some of which had sports themes and traits. In 2014 they released the Summer Horses which celebrated the great sport of surfing. They also had hidden inside the 24th trait–saddles!
2015 saw the Under The Sea and Sea Nymph LEs, with some amazing artwork, and of course more hidden surprises. Any breeding of these horses gave you the possibility at the Saddle Rainbow and Saddle Blue.
The 2016 Happy Father’s Day Limited Edition was hiding the Overo Azure, and in dogs it was the Azure Splash Great Dane. This coat celebrated the great sport of baseball. The 2016 Hang Ten was another surfing reference, with the Rip tide eye.
Amaretto celebrated Summer with the release of the 2017 Summer Edition – da-dum da-dum da-dum Horses! It had an adorable shark tail, and the Great White eye. Baby shark do do do do do do. Do you suppose it was chasing the Hang Ten through the ocean?
The Summer Edition horses of 2018 were the Helios and Hecate, which had to be bred together to find the hidden surprises, the Topaz Dazzle and Sapphire Dazzle Horns.
In 2020 Amaretto went back to the ocean again with the Deep Sea Angler Fish. The surprise was 2 brand new bridles, Blue and Orange!
Remember, none of the coats on these LEs passed, but of course the eyes could pass. Speaking of eyes, let us not forget the K-9 Sports eyes celebrating football, soccer, baseball and golf. Maybe using some of these eyes and a few color traits you could make a sports themed Amaretto of your own, with team colors!
Happy Breeding!
