I find that the horse is an amazing beast! Just ran into this vid on FB and remembered my early encounter with these wonderful animals smile.gif I was about 6 when I first got out of my country to visit my aunt and uncle in The Netherlands. My aunt is a horse tamer smile.gif HOW COOL IS THAT, right? biggrin.gif Well, at that time she was in the stables all day long and organizing competitions with her prized stallions. These were incredibly huge for me at that time but I was fascinated by them and I remember I suffered enormously, when one of the horses in there had to be shot because of a nasty wound which left him crippled. I've witnessed the event and I cried for the rest of the day...

I know Ben loves horses, so he will enjoy this for certain smile.gif what about you guys? Have you had any encounters or stories to tell about these magnificent animals?

I'm a horse rider, but no horses, but that they call in France "Double poney", a horse between a pony and a horse. They have the height of Arab horses, and there are the Connemaras, Hafflingers, "Carmargais", etc... They are smaller than the horses but more malicious and capricious (they do rodeo if they are in mood).

I rode a Hafflinger a long time, and he was fabulous. The others horseriders hated him because he was difficult to ride, but not for me and a other horse rider who bought it recently. Fabulous was the word for this pony. At present time, I ride a "double poney" with Arab blood and who is hated by the other horse-riders because he is a rodeo addict. He is very malicious and gambler, a funny horse, and when you understand him, what I try, he is serious and fabulous.

Yeah, a lot of these horses are just written off by people because they don't want to put in the time to understand them.
