equinenow I guess you haven't seen the price of horses lately, but they aren't cheap either. However, I'd love to be able to ride instead of drive if I could. I saw some story the other day where a guy was doing just that to protest the price of gas.

LadyWhiteheart @LadyWhiteheart (111) • United States 25 Feb 07

do you have a favorite breed of horse? For me, my favorite breed of horse is the arabian. Eventually if I'm able, I plan to get a pure white Arabian mare. She would be my specialty horse but for everyday riding, I eventually would...

equinenow I've always been a fan of horse racing, so my favorite breed has to be the thoroughbred. I just think they've been refined for so long and are so athletic. I guess if I had to choose another breed, I'd say Quarter Horses with their quick bursts of speed....
