Curious and thinking about trying some, I hate horses -- but then again I might not be able to stomach eating one anyway. Ugly messy things!

I found other questions but no one seems to answer SERIOUSLY.

BTW she's a purebred foundation quarter horse, and some of the pics she's in with my brother, she just recently turned 4 this summer. I'm kinda bored and just wondering what do you think about her just from her pics? She's the sorrel color looking horse btw but shes actually a red roan, not the best pics but whatevah. The most recent are the first ones, it's winter :P

I have been bucked off before, but only once. For some reason I'm not scared of randomly loosing my balence or just like, not paying attention and falling off, that really wouldn't scare me at all... but I can't stop thinking about how scary it's going to be when my horse spooks or bucks cause it's having fun. I don't know why I'm so scared anyway. Any advice? Also any advice of how to tell if your horse is going to buck? What to do when you know you're falling out, and what to do to try and sit through it? Thanks!

There is this new pony at my barn and we are trying to come up with a show name for her. All of the horses in her bloodlines have "expensive" sounding names. So any name ideas? Some good thoughts would be any wine or champeange, car, designer... I came up with "Mercedes Benz There, Done That" but they already have a horse named Mercedes. So use your imagination! Thanks! :D

(the other one is a picture of Zorro with his best friend Ebony.)

My 4 year old has recently started bucking with me whenever I push him into a canter. He will not stop and just throw a bucking fit, he just throws in some big ones throughout. I know he is still young and full of energy (trust me, he is!), but we switched girths and blankets, checked the saddle, etc to make sure he wasn't in any pain. This is the saddle he has used since a 2 year old and there has never been any problems. I'm just wondering, what do you suggest for keeping a horse from bucking during the canter? (He has only ever done it to me when asked to canter, and even then, he only started doing this the last 3 times we rode.) I know to pull up their heads, yell no, etc. But do you have any other suggestions? He is only 4 and he is always full of energy, but he has a very sweet temperment. He is very spooky when it comes to some things and he does spook on trails, but I can tell the bucks are not from fear and we are pretty certain pain is not an issue either.

I have a horse that i board at a public barn. The barn owner asked me if i could work with this 1 horse because nobody rides him. They just don't really have time because they r giving lessons and he always wants to run so hes not a good lesson horse. He was breed for speed and hes a really good barrel horse. I said i would and i was just wondering if thier is any good suggestions on how to slow him down a little and make him less hot. the horse is not good at stoping or collecting so if there is any thing i could do 2 teach him how do these things please let me no thanks a lot.

in situations where pastures are poor is...
a.cattle are too often recumbent causing excessive pasture crushing.
b.interspecies fighting results in muscle bruising on the cattle and lacerations on the horses
c.horses graze pastures too low for cattle to effectively graze.

I'm leaning toward A, but could really use some help figuring this one out,
thanks,

My aunt and I are looking at horses for my cousin. She rides my horses, my aunt and grandmas horses, takes lessons, been to many shows, etc. She's a great rider and has lots of experience. We found a great horse for her, but he has foot abscess. Should we take a chance on him?

I am going to be buying a horse hopefully sometime in December (the vet check is in December so hopefully sometime after that). Then in April my mom and I are going to CA for my grandma's 90th birthday party. My sister will be staying home with my dad, and she said she'll go up occasionally to ride my horse while I'm gone. She has ridden before, but isn't that experienced of a rider.

She doesn't know her leg commands, how to put on a saddle, or how to put on a bridle. I am trying to tell her that if she wants to ride my horse, Star, while I'm gone, that she's going to need to lean her leg commands and how to tack up a horse both western AND english.

Star is a dressage horse and you need leg commands to control her. She'll listen to hand commands, but won't listen to it when you want her to stop.

I'd like it to be 3 step. My trainer has this mounting block that the lid flips open and its also storage seems pretty cheap to me if you could tell me where to get one of those that would be great.

i just brought my new appy home yesterday, and I am thinking of renaming him. his name is legacy, but it sounds to girly to me. i don't really have a picture of him on the computer yet, so here is the ad for him.

http://www.dreamhorse.com/show_horse.php?form_horse_id=1030299

he is one of the best horses i have ever been around (so far...), and he is a real gentleman. anyway, he is an arab/appy cross. i was thinking a Native American name mabye, but i can't pronounce some of them, and i want one that sounds pretty, but is unique.

so if you guys have any suggestions native american or not, lemme know. thanks!!

p.s. his real name is TAIRS BRIGHT LEGACY.

The reason I ask is because I answered this question:

Do you feed your horses haylage from a big round bale,if so how much do they eat?
And I didn't think anything about it until I saw Gillian's answer and she said that you need to feed more haylage then hay...

With the recent tremendous marketing of Poodle crosses, we thought a cross that had unique qualities not already found in the Poodle made more sense.

After long hours in the lab tinkering with the DNA, we have created a "doodle" which does not lessen the original.

(Note: A couple of "My Little Pony" toys accidentally fell in the gene splicer, hence the neon-pink hair.)

In addition to the traits of the Poodle, the Ponydoodle can be ridden by small children, mow your lawn, and can be maintained on either a meat-based diet or on hay and grain -- thereby cutting the cost of feed.

I have been horse- shopping, and one of the prospective horses is claimed to be "hot on trails." What does this mean? It also said that he is more comfortable with another horse on trails. Does that have anything to do with it?

First and foremost, let me say this. These are not my horses and I am not advertising them for sale nor am I buying any of them. Thank you to whoever reported this as me advertising. The question posted is not about buying or selling. My question is: Which of these horses would be the better stallion prospect? Since I see this all the time about how cool owning a stallion is, should I get a stallion as my first horse, should I breed my stallion, etc. I decided to let everyone here look at several horses and list the good and bad points and maybe open a few eyes about what is and is not stallion material.

The gray horse is listed as having points in multiple AQHA events and a World class pedigree and a great disposistion.

The big sorrel & white overo is listed as having points in halter, color, roping and western pleasure in APHA out of a World Champ sire

I purchased a 4 year old gelding at the time from this stable in Thurmont NC. He is now 5 years old; I went away on Friday 11/9/07 and returned on 11/11/07 only to find this sack hanging below. Of course I was stunned and ready to pass out. After making a few calls to other horse owners I was informed that yes it is possible for him to have testicles because more than likely he was not gelded. This would explain his attitude towards other horses and short temper as well. I guess my only questions now is why would it take 5 years before his testicle dropped?? Please any answers or experiences you may have would be greatly appriciated.

and after one week she stopped eating her grain, though she would still eat hay. We had wormed her and we think it was because of the de-worming that she stopped eating. She is now eating okay again. But now yesterday she had one eye closed and today her eye is cloudy and she can't see out of it. We will be taking her to the vet tomorrow, but I was just curious to see if anyone had ever had this happen before? And do you think the blindness is permanent?

This is an 8 y/o, she just had a baby in Sept. that was taken off her (not by us).

What would you expect from these horses?
A green horse? An intermediate horse? And a finished horse? Discipline makes no difference. Can be English, Western, Polo, Dressage, Racing, Barrels, Poles, Roping, Everyday Riding, Trail Horse, etc. If you were taking a horse from “start to finish”, how much time would you estimate spending on this project? Method used is not at issue. My question is directed towards how you would expect a horse to advance thru training levels (bits used at each level, length of work sessions, what is accomplished to advance to next level, etc.) to reach the desired goal. Reason for this question? I see a lot of this on Answers. “My horse is 9, I have been training him for 7 years, want to show, but I can’t because he has never been ridden in anything but a snaffle and he will not take a lead, collect himself, or backup, and I have a week to teach him this”.
