Horse Lovers Thread

[Rhode Island Red]

Hi people I haven't seen all that many horse threads around lately so I decided to make one. Here I hope you will post stories, pictures, thoughts, questions, and absolutely anything equine related!
Here is my Arab cross mare Moonlight:

I don't have any horses but I live near Hanover Shoe Farms. I love driving past, esp in the morning because it's so pretty! I have ridden a few times at camp and with friends. I would love to learn but def don't have the money

I ride western, but also want to do english, and possibly, MAYBE, dressage. I definitely want to learn to barrel race.

Oh I wish I owned one! I had a great privilege of riding a lovely green broke gelding that impressed me so much! I would love to own one-- I'm in my research stage right now. I'm not sure if I want a weanling (which is more reasonably priced) or an adult, trained horse.

Your telling me you rode a A GREEN BROKE horse that impressed you?

they are not all like that! When looking for a horse, stay clear of green broken and under 10 (unless they have show experience and high training) mainly because these horses have experienced plenty of training and are well mannered. Personally I suggest riding a few times and learning about its background. My mare, Buttons, was7 when I got her. It wasn’t a good idea to jump into it, but she seemed like such a great horse. She was being sold because of a divorce, this lead to lack of training at a valuable age- that was added to by the fact that they had 20 horses and could not possibly be able to manage them all, not even with hired riders.

anyway, my point is, they may seem Lovley, but you want a horse that you can trust, ride, and work your own skills up on. You can improve if you’re constantly fighting the horse

Yes! An ombudsmen is a military something, and investigator? I don't know, something like that!
