Horses are my favorite animal because they are so beautiful and i love horseback riding and most horses believe it or not are very gentle and will eat out of the pal of your hand. Horses are so beautiful and elegant and i love the way they look when they run. I also love horseback riding alot. I can't say that i have a favorite type of horse but i do like apoloosas the ones with the spots and i like stallions and Clydales. I love the mane on horses and the way the hair is when they run they are just so beautiful and did i mention i love horseback riding. I also love to pet horses. So are horses your favorite animal and why? what do you like about horses and why?

When I was a child, I dreamed to be a horse rider. I even ride on a broom stick, imagining I was on the field looking for bandits. The horse images were so stunning when I see one. Some believers, if they have figurines of a horse in standing position, it brings luck and prosperity.

Shavkat i never heard of horse figurines in a standing position bringing luck and prosperity. That is very interesting to know. Thanks for sharing. I have some horse figurines and they are in standing position because that's how they were made and stand better. So i hope i get good luck. Thanks again for sharing that information.

I love horses because they are beautiful. I also had all kinds of pleasant experiences with them. Also, my share of falls as I was learning to ride. I had a total of 2 falls from a horse from beginning to advanced riding, and they say if you can handle falling and getting back on, you are a natural. I love horses, always will and plan on having them someday.

I really love horses and ponies. My home country has Welsh Cobs, New Forest Ponies and Highland Ponies. I love the look of Arabian horses as they seem so elegant. When I was a teenager I rode a lovely Highland mare called Heather. She was in horse terms gray. In layman terms white with a gray mane a tail. I wished to buy my own horse but my family didn't have enough money. I like the look of the mane and the tail. The head can look beautiful and ever so sweet. I haven't been horse back riding in years. It was a favorite activity when I was a teenager.

I am horse crazy, but I'm not that crazy about stallions. I've meet sweet ones, but most aren't. I knew one with great bloodlines that was just a maniac when it came to being ridden, last I heard he was in his teens and unrideable.
I personally love the color of the buckskins, especially the ones with the golden coats and black points.
I rode for years when I was younger, and I probably wouldn't look too much like a fool on one now, but I'd hurt when I got off!
If I were to own a horse, I'd probably get a rescue, like my cats and dog, but I'd probably want a buckskin or dun and not too big.
I've said I'd like a "house horse" one of the miniature horses, but since I live in a big city and they don't allow "farm animals" inside the city limits without a certain amount of acreage I guess I won't get one...
Having said all that, giraffes are my favorite animal... don't ask why, I really can't explain it - probably dates back to my dad bringing me a stuffed giraffe back from Texas when he went for a job interview...
I'm also pretty cat crazy - a lot easier to run a cat rescue than a horse one...

I also love horses and I have one of my own. He's an Arabian (my favorite type of horse) and he does western and sidesaddle. When I was in high school we competed all over the state in horse shows and even went to regionals and nationals. Now that I'm in college I haven't been able to show but I still like to go out and ride my horse and some of the other horses at the barn. They're very relaxing to be around and they always make me feel better.
