I love how kind and patient you are with your horses. Good job!

@apprider  Thanks so much-- patience definitely works and results in calmer, more sensible horses!

i hate it when people presume that all driving horses are abused.

there are just as many riding horses abused as driving horses every1 just presumes cuz some are that all are.

its just stupid bloody posh gits on there snobby little thoroughbreds that need 12 different rugs n cnt handle being out 4 a nite. GIVE ME A PROPER WELSH SECTION D ANY DAY OF THE WEEK :p

@b0z123 Your right people shouldent just assume things like that,but what the heck do you mean by stupid posh gits with thoroughbreds and twelve different rugs who bring their horses in at night.

1. I have 4 thoroughbreds... does that make me a posh git?

2. Why do you think thoroughbreds are snobby?

3. Whats wrong with taking your horse in at night?

4. What's wrong with your horse having 12 rugs

5. What do you mean by a PROPER welsh section D (Whats an improper horse?)

My point proved

Very nice!

[horsepaintings]

thanx!!

[horsepaintings]

I meant no offense to your personal horses or you. I just have seen a few who appeared overworked and I know their jobs can be hard, so I have that concern in general. They are definitely well trained!

[horsepaintings]

Yes, have seen a few carriage horses in NYC and other cities. Always hope they are well treated.

My horse HATES firehydrants. We'll be going fine until she sees one. then we're magically on the other side of the road, facing traffic!! I've stopped, un hitched and walked her up to them and she's fine!!! Only when she's hitched!

[gypsyrose210]

wow gorgeous horse. he's doing well :) especially past that tepee!
