This is a horse chat thread where we share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share. In the previous threads we have had a great time talking through lessons, training, horse lamenesses, illnesses and pregnancies... and always sharing pictures and stories.
I always have a link to this thread on my profile page, so if you have something to say and can't find the thread in latest posts look for it there and wake the thread up!
I also have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and Becky pings everyone most mornings. Let Becky (Paynoattentionmanbehindthecurtain) and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list. As FreeRepublic is a political site, our politics and other issues will probably blend in . There are many issues for horsemen that touch politics land use, animal rights/abuse cases that make the news . Legislation that might affect horse owners.
So... like the previous threads, this is intended as fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends. There are lots of ways of doing things and we all have our quirks, tricks and specialties that are neat to learn about.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
She certainly does look like a QH.
I just got back from riding with Tina. I took Rock out. I even remembered the camera, and had Tina take a picture of me:)
They are loading, but it might be awhile till I post if they are slow loading. Jack is on tonight:)
Becky
Can you believe that gaping mouth? What a spoiled child! "I don't want this in my mouth, don't want it at all!"
Post your pics before 24 starts! I don't want to wait!
I'm so sorry about Jacob.
Congratulations on your anniversary.
Becky
I had just glanced thru your pictures, but had went backto look more close after my post. I'm surprised that she was doing so will by the end as much as she seemed to dislike it at the first. She's not so spoiled:), just had to adjust.
Becky
Congratulations. I hope Jacob starts feeling better real soon.
I like that picture of her smelling the flowers. It looks like she is smiling:)
Becky
She just needs someone willing to take her slow and easy... like me... I plan to saddle her when she's 20.
She's so adorable. I love her to pieces. :-)
Happy anniversary, Rose!
I haven't been on lately. Been out of town, plus have a new computer that I've been trying to get set up. Still don't have it set up. Lot of work ahead of me. It's nuts.
I had posted the other day asking about horses or ponies being better for kids and someone ,I think Hair said that well trained ponies are very expesive because adults usually can't ride them to train them. Might be a good business for you:')
This is Tina and Oreo. For some reason I cannot figure out where we were when I took this.
Me and Rock.
Here we are riding down the fence line that I've been griping about. But the man did open up the trail so I can get around it. I think it's pretty her along this fence.
The trails rather dark in this one, but you get to see Rocky's head:)
Becky
My granddaughter loves her too. She even named her:')
Those are great! I like Rock ;~D
So this is the lady with the paint that had the big wreck last week?
Thanks, he's a good boy.
Yeah, that's the horse that thru the fit tied up. I think she learned her lesson today. She told me today, he stepped around a bit while she was trying to get on him, but she finally got him to be still. I'm taking that as he wasn't tied up.
He did fine the whole ride.
Becky
You don't know who he belings to?
How many of them did he kill?
Becky
Oh no!!
I'm so sorry to hear about your chickens.
Not as sorry as that dog's gonna be though.
But be careful! You don't know if that dog's got bigger issues than just hunger.
I think I know who he belongs too..........he is a neighbour, a little on the "rough" side. He has 3 pit bulls who are chained up in not good conditions. As far as the chickens go, I have only found seen live one. : ( They were all roosting and he got right up in their house.
yeah, those dogs, you dont mess with. Hold on, my dogs are going crazy again.........
