Most horse people have dogs too! We are a versatile bunch! And favorite breeds sometimes we defend with as much vigor as dog folk!

This is great. Mack is going to post some pictures of my boys in a few minutes.
I just got in from riding the palamino, Harley, and will be leaving in a few minutes to ride Rusty, my roan. I'm going to take the camera and take some pictures of the trails I ride.

Oh I know, my dog-stalker pal! ;-)
I mean, tho, that it's my experience horse people have more sense than dog people (assuming there are separate groups). They understand, for starters at base, that horses can kill you, whereas dog people don't get that about dogs. Thus they have more respect for horses, like people should have for lions, than the latter have for dogs. That includes, ironically, devaluing dogs' intelligence - ironic since generally they are smarter than horses!
Combined w/the Dr Spock approach to discipline, it makes a very dangerous combo. And a very Nazi-like lock-step world-view that labels and libels any1 outside their view "cruel", etc. That's why I don't like dog fora much.
