Default Who has horses?
I know Oddball and BarnBabe do; anyone else? I used to have 13, but I've outlived them all. Horses are beautiful, graceful (and tempermental) animals. I'd love to have another one, just a trail rider, perhaps a dead calm Quarter horse. When I was younger, being thrown off a horse might have made me sore for a few days--now it could kill me! What do you have? Please post pictures!

Signed,
Sentimental ole horse lover (if you've ever had one, you know what I mean)

We (my dad and I) have 11 reg quarter horses, a black and white paint, and a leopard app. I use to show and train contest horses. Use to rodeo a little in college to, but don't even take the time to ride much any more.

13? Wow! And you outlived them all?

Well, 50 years is to a horse what a 100 years is to us; that's a 2 to 1 ratio...

I don't, but my brother and sister in law live down the street and have a Belgian Draft Horse and a Percheron. I don't ride them, they make me nervous.

Usually, the draft breeds usually have a gentle nature.

You mean from Bureau of Land Management (or whatever agency that is)? If so, they require a higher fence than what I have (5').

When I was a kid, we had 2 ponies. Both ponies had foals. One of the ponies and her foal was traded for a horse.

My first pony kicked me in the chest, knocked the breath out of me, I rolled on the ground thinking I was dying, left a hoof print on me for months.
