Sometimes I just can't believe how much I love my horse

No, but I was always a horse crazy girl. I rode from 5th grade thru college and a bit beyond. I never owned a horse, I still live in the 5th largest city in Texas. And, honestly, if given the choice of staying where I am with my cats or moving to the country and having a horse, it would be a very hard choice. I hate to move. I really hate to move. I hate it so much that if I never move again, it'll be too soon. I last moved in 1984.

I am so jealous of you! I have loved horses since I was teenie tiny, and they have always, always been my favorite animal. My parents put me in riding lessons when we moved to Texas right before my 7th grade year, and I not only rode but also volunteered at the stable. I did mostly grunt work like mucking stalls, but I loved it anyway because I got to be around the horses. Unfortunately, I had to stop riding when I started college, and I miss it every day. :( It is one of my big ambitions to own a horse someday. I am glad that you enjoy and appreciate your horse, and I hope you two have a lot of great memories together. :)

i never had a horse of my own.... but the horses i used to ride and train have taught me a lot..... they have actually taught me the meaning of life and how to live it..... unfortunately both of them (scarlet and scotch) are no longer in this world and i must say that they were the closest to my heart and always will be...i have always been a horse lover since the time i learnt to walk..... and will always be a horse lover even after i go 6 feet under..... but as you put it.... these four legged creatures have taguht me a lot in my life and i intend to learn more from them as life goes by..... :)

Yes, I know what you mean. I grew up in a rural area and always wanted a horse as a kid. As an adult, I never felt the urge for one even though we have the room. Just seemed like more work with three kids already. Two months ago we had a starved paint show up in our back field. The police couldn't take him so we agreed to care for him. Of course, no one has claimed him and after thirty days he became ours if we wanted. I can't imagine not having him and will always believe he came to us for a reason. He's become another one of my babies and I don't mind tracking out at 6 am in the pouring rain to feed him before work. His health has improved with proper care and he seems so happy. We can't even begin training or the possibilty of riding him for awhile. He was so skinny, his backbone is still sticking up a little. Yet, I don't care. I'll be perfectly happy with him even if we neve get to ride him.
