i would LOVE to have a horse , but we dont own enought land and i would have to pay for all of her needs and everything , so it is kind of out of my budget. I do have a dog though!!! her name is Angel and she is a boarder collie / sheltie cross!!! she's adorable!!!

Indeed. I have a horse. Several. Although... they're doubling as beavers these days and eating the bark off of all our trees.

Not to mention one is an escape artist.

:I love horses to and I used to want to get a horse for a present. And I wanted to have a horse when I grew up. I have ridden a horse before. But I don't want a horse as much as before.

I don't own a horse, but I have ridden one...actually two different horses...several times (it was the summer after fourth grade; I took riding lessons). I do like them, but no more than say...dogs or cats. (I love all animals!)

I used to wonder what caused people to LOVE them so much, even though they are pretty standing out in the fields, but riding one was...well...it was breathtaking.

On a side note, during one of my lessons, one of the other horses was getting groomed, and apparently it relaxed him so much he fell asleep and his back half fell to the ground. (Man, that didn't sound right.

) Anyway, it made a very loud noise, and startled everyone. You should have seen the poor barn cats!

He was all right, by the way.

I have seen some horses do some crazy things. like my friends horse was trained to rear up on command that was great.

my parents were riding once in a trail group and my dads horse kept on biting my moms horse... i dont remember how it ended but i dont think it was a very good ending

I knew a lady that did shoejumping and her horse landed on her and broke almost every bone in her body. That was wierd hearing about.

I am supposedly getting a horse next year when we move. I'm not sure, though. I might not still want one by then. I really want one right now, though. I've always wanted to ride, but I can't...since I don't really have a horse.

Is there a barn near you that gives lessons? If so... It's nice to have a few lessons before actually owning a horse. WHat type of horse would you like?

Hah, I haven't thought about any of that, since I didn't know we were moving until two days ago...

MajorSplendor · Post by **MajorSplendor** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 6:50 pm

Wow! When are you moving? Are you happy about it?

Eh, I'm happy, but I'm not sure if it's absolute yet. So I'm trying not to get my hopes up.

Well..if you want to save money, i would not get a horse!

And in answer to your question, yes, I have had experience. I've taken lessons from three different stables and I've worked for a few. I currently have three horses that I'm training. And my brother has three.

I love my horses dearly, but they are expensive. heh.
