@7flyinghecks Yes, some of the ladies are posting! I've never riding side saddle, my hats off to these ladies, posting side-saddle is not an easy task.

@QuiteByChance I love tail bags! Thanks for the comment

[QuiteByChance]

@7flyinghecks Oh gosh, I know what it's like to have a long tail and mane to look after! I have a gypsy vanner who lives out in the field. His tail trails around 3 inches behind him during the showing season and his mane down to his shoulders! :) If you did want to grow the tail of your horse a little longer you could try tail bags? I think they're by tail gater, my boy has one on all the time and always has a lovely, long, clean tail! :)

@QuiteByChance

Not all Americans keep Arabian tails that long. :) I sure don't, because I have do not have the time on my hands to re braid it and bag it everyday. Besides, my show horse is not stalled so it is quite impossible for me. I just let it grow as long as it can naturally. My horse's tail just touches the ground when he is standing still. A long tail can make a horse more eye catching, but is not needed to win. I have won against horses with much longer tails.

@Prowinda im geting a camra for christmas so ima put videos up when i get it :)

[Prowinda]

@1233Maya Love it, do you have video of him, love to see!

[1233Maya]

@Prowinda yeah he's awesome and my mom thinks he might have leg problems... i think he likes to move like that cuz he can and will bend his back legs he just doesnt want to. and Yeah ik they hold there tails high... when he poops he flips his tail up over his butt lol, he has about a 3 or 4 foot tail so the whole tail goes over his butt xD

[Prowinda]

@1233Maya I can't answer the braid question but it doesn't effect how they hold their tail, Arabians have a natural high tail carriage. Arabians also have a free flowing trot, some have a higher break at the knee which has been perfected through proper breeding. Thus, breeding for a Western, Hunter, English, Dressage etc. I had a 3/4 Arabian 1/4 Quarter when I was a child best horse ever!
