Horses Anyone?

[Dolfan1]

Matt brought up that I needed to get a horse and shotgun to go round up the rest of the guys and gals from Phinatics to which I replied I already have a horse and shotgun. That made me think of posting this thread to see how many other guys and gals we have out there that ride the 4 legged creatures. Here's a picture of my Katie.

I can tell from the photo, she's a very sweet horse, isn't she? Does she stay near you? Or would you have to drive to be with her? I don't have a horse, but here's my parrot, Joey.

I have 5 acres and most of it is pasture so yes, she lives here with us. She's a very sweet horse and I call her my pocket pony because she follows me everywhere and is very inquisitive about every thing I do. Guess she feels she has to be involved. We had three horses but we sold our Tennessee Walker some years ago and then 2 years ago we had to put our Thoroughbred down so Katie is all alone now. Love the parrot and always wanted one but with four cats I don't know that it would be a good idea.

Thank you for sharing. I wish I lived on a ranch. You are so blessed. Please share as many pics as you want of your pets, especially Kaite! I enjoy pics of pets.

I moved here some 9 years ago from a neighborhood where the houses were so close you could converse with the neighbors while you were both on your own back porch grilling so I love this area I'm in now and I'm just sorry I didn't make the move some 30 years ago. I'll post up some pictures of the other horses I have had and also the dogs and cats if you want. I love to share. I'll be going out soon so maybe later tonight I can post some more pics.

This was my Thoroughbred, her name was Hope. We got her out of rescue where she was put I'm guessing because the previous owner decided the 27,000 dollars she won in races wasn't enough money for him. She came complete with paper and the tattoo inside her lip showing she was a real Thoroughbred race horse. We ran the history on her ourselves to see how many races she won or placed in. We had to put her down about two years ago when the Lymphosarcoma she had finally got the best of her.

This was my Tennessee Walker who's name was Johnny Walker, what else would you name a male Tennessee Walker? Best riding horse I ever owned but he didn't care for women much and after he sent my wife sailing about 10 feet when he caught her under her chin with his head, I had to sell him.

My sisters Quarter horse Little Bit who stayed here with us for about a year and a half when my sister had nowhere else to keep her.

I took mine to the water hole but they didn't drink the water.

D1, those are beautiful horses. Thank you for sharing. Katie must be lonely. Planning to get another horse? And you have dogs too, don't you? They all sure have a lot of land to run freely....they're lucky to have you.

Is anyone else having problems sending private messages?

We thought about getting her a new friend but my Farrier thinks she is just fine with us and the dogs keeping her company. We have two dogs who love to chase her when she runs so she turns around and chases them.
