@brogan4toddyXx I see that a couple of others have answered your question, but where i live, its quite common, although my ponys mostly walking around freely, if needed, it is safer for them to be tied in two ropes, than in one, it´s also werry comon to double tie driving horses, becouse they got lots of equipments on them ;)
@Irishgal333 25-30 is a general average. my old riding instructer had a thoroughbred X and he lived to 36. a friend of mine rides an arab horse who is 32 and up untill last year was competing in local showjumping classes, and the stables that i am currently at is home to a 36 year old welsh mare. i think that the oldest horse redorded was a pony called "Old Billy" orsomething who was in his late 40's/early 50's.
aaww, hes so cute, we have a belgian cross at my barn named grover but hes big and stupid, we had three people pressing our wieght against him for 5 minits straight before he finally moved over
Aww, he's JUST like Twinkie! Twinkie's an 18 hand Belgian at my school's stable and he's also a a big fidget. Ahh, if it ain't a draft . . . it's just a horse. :)
That's funny how he figgets when the groomer is using the first grooming tool. when he starts using the brush he really stands still like he is really enjoying it. He's so cute.
Very fun. I walked a friends saddlebred that was 17.3 hands many years ago. I thought I would be trampled to death. He was incredibly magnificent, but deserved every bit of respect he could get. A draft horse is such a happier companion. Give him or her a good scratch and you have a friend for life.
That's cuz Arabs are only half that size! I got on a friend's Belgian once. Once was enough. I'd need a ladder for getting on and off if I rode him more. Think I'll stick w/my Arab! She's much easier to get on.
i have a 18hh belgium draft stallion and he is awesome. it takes me 2 and a half hours to groom him, and i have decided to geld him cause he is just to much to handle i have tried training him and i love him and want to keep him but i have to many mares. so i am gelding him sadly.
I'll say it again, who needs a gym membership when you've got a horse to clean. What a beautiful boy. I had to laugh when he's done all that grooming, pats the horse on the back and a cloud of dust rises! Need a vacuum! LOL
I just lost my beautiful percheron mare two weeks ago to emnd. bumping into this video reminded me of how much she loved to get groomed (especially underbelly liek your guy) Thanks for posting!
My mare scratches me back when I scratch her. I have to keep her at 'low speed' or she starts scratching me too hard and biting. She does give a pretty good back scratch though.Don't you just love their expressive nose movementss?
