I love riding horses! It makes me feel so free. Plus, horseback riding is a special kind of therapy for my sister Kelley, who has autism. What does horseback riding mean to you? Post here to talk about HORSES.
I went to the Devon Horse show yesterday and I saw this champion competition and there were jumps that were over six feet! The Jumpoff at the end was amazing! The girl and horse that won turned halfway around on one of the jumps in the Jumpoff. The horse that won was Rocky W. The prize was a trophy and $45,000.
I rode a fast horse named yankee at riding he flew over the crossrail and started cantering! I fell onto his neck and held real tight then i swung my leg over doing a dismount from his neck! hope i don't get him in the show
kookookoko, Hey! I discovered that my hotel right now has internet, so yeah... My b-day's in November, sure lets be friends! (I'm already on vacay right now! We just got back frokm Epcot! )

swedishfishyfashion, i am turning 13 on June 8 when is your birthday? When are you leaving? I am going away in July/August for holidays and in july for camp. Lets be friends. Bye
kookookoko, You're welcome! I'm 13, and you? I'll not be on for 2 weeks, though, so I'll talk to you then. (Florida trip, sorry!) Maybe we can be friends? Buh-bye (for now)!
kookookoko, It is NOT your fault that this happened. Did you make the deer come out and jump? Did you know that would happen? Did you even know what to do when something like that happens? No! So it is not your fault. You probably shouldn't quit. Neither you nor your instructor expected this to happen. Ask her about it, and how you can be better prepared for the unexpected. Only if she is discouraging you more than that one time, and doing it a lot should you consider finding a different instructor. I hope you're okay. Good luck!
I Love Horses!!!!!!! they are so gental and so calm, yet so wild! Riding is sooooo wonderful! It makes me feel so free and just so amazing. Although i don't ride a ton, i just love being around horses!
OMG, I am so terrified to ride a horse! I love, love, LOVE horses, but I am deathly afraid of heights! Horses are such beautiful animals! My little sister, who is 8, loves to ride and watching her is so much fun! Click the heart if you love horses but don't ride

Should i quit?? i hope not. please help me someone
hplvr123, Wow, you're so lucky that there are so many horses where you live. ALthough there IS a riding stables right beside my school, my mom doesn't wanna pay so much for lessons. I want to ride English, which is what they teach, but my neigbor's horses only ride Western. I learned English first (only $15 per lesson with my old instructor, but she moved ) and it is easier for me than Western. I wish I could get lessons...
swedishfishyfashion: no, i dont have a horse, but my buddy (our skool has this thing where we get buddies) who is in 1st grade lives on a thoroughbred farm, 7i babysit her sumx & help w/ the horses ttyl! -hplvr123
hplvr123, Yay! I love Man O'War! I ride when I can, and now I can ride pretty much whenever I want to, because now my neighbor bought two horses! (I was gonna buy one of them, but at the last minute she changed her mind and bought both, but she lets me ride them.) I would love to ride competitively, but I need to practice a little more first! Do you have a horse?
swedishfishyfashion: i no!! itll take 4ever 2 wait!!!! its a breeding & racing farm it has bred & tained famous horses: including man o' war!! there is a st in ky called man o' war after him!!! i ride sometimes but not competitively. i am oo busy w/ all my other sports ttyl -hplvr123
hplvr123, I don't know about the farm... Yeah, I read about the 2010 games, I'm psyched but that's 2 years too long to wait! What exactly is Camulet Farm? A breeding farm, raceing farm, riding school, or what? Do you ride?
swedishfishyfashion: i dont no if u saw it, but it is the HUGE one w/ gorgeous white fences. yes, i have we r gonna host the world equestrian games there in 2010! im so xcited!! i heart livin here! ttyl -hplvr123
On land I'm a purebred klutz, but on a horse's back everything changes! I'm a team with someone who I totally trust, and it feels great, like I'm flying!
hplvr123, I've never heard of that particular place, but we passed a ton of horse farms when we were driving, and the whole place was gorgeous!Have you been to the KY Horse Park?
Horse -back riding is great! I can do thins I can't do on foot. my horse was at an old barn that they weren't taking good care of him. His ribs were showing, and he needed a lot of TLC, but now he's an awesome horse. He's the absolute best!!! How could anyone even think of putting him down???? ticklesA P.S. Katani, keep riding! You were really good in the book. P.S.S. Say hi to Kelley and Mr. Bear for me!
I rode a horse for the 1st time during an outdoor adventure club outing for my middle school!! ~MartyRoxs005~ PS- And I WAS deathly afraid of horses b4 that, but now I'm not!!
Hi, I am 12 and I live in the US. I absoulutly LOVE horses and have ever since I was 1. I don't have a horse at this time because I am still grieving over my last horse, a goregeous Paint, that we had to put down. But I believe I am getting a Thoroughbred quite soon. I LOVE HORSES
levelground, u sound like me.Where do you live? Here is what i am doing. My family and me are going on holidays away from home and while they sightsee i go to horse camp.Get your parents to holiday where i live(ever been to canada,thats where i live,its beautiful) and come to camp w/ me cause i might go here instead im not sure.PS, any other canadian here????????
ilovenickjonas6, My 2 fave horses were 4 sale, and now my neighbor has agreed to get one, and maybe the other if we don't get our fence up soon! They arrive here Saturday, I'm so psyched, except I'll be out of town for it , so unfair! But I'm so happy, because she's kinda old, so she's gonna let ME take care of BOTH of them!
Oh! I was so upset about 8 Belles, and she got 2nd, too! That makes me so upset about how they are breeding some of these horses for speed only, and forgetting about strong bones and bodies, too! She broke her 2 front ankles...
HPLVR123, Cool, I love KY, I went there and I went to Churchill Downs, I saw this sweet little filly named Aurora Bowl, she was so nice, I have no clue where she is now...
Swimin Dude, I'll be your friend! I love horses&ponies too! My dog might not have to be put down anymore, we're not sure... Her ligament was torn a year ago and her old body was in terrible pain, but now that the snow disappeared last week, she seems way more limber! Yay!
Hey Sorry, I heard that it was Big Brown.... It was all over the news, my grandmother also told me. My grandmother and I love the Kentucky Derby. Well it's still sad! *sniff-sniff*
i wanted brown 2 win the derby and im glad he did but i feel soooo sorry for Eight Bells...poor thing!... oh on www.game.equination.net it has a really fun virtual horse racing game-check it out!
Hey swedishfishyfashion, why is your dog gonna be put down? we had to put 3 of our dogs down 1 because when we were littler #1 dog went around and bit horses that we were keeping for a neighbor. #2 dog got bit by a tick and got a disease so we put her down, because we didn't want her to suffer. #3 dog she was 15! she was gonna die any day so we put her down #2&3 were great dogs! want to friendz? write back!?!?!?!?!?! ~Swimin Dude~

YAY! Kentucky Derby is this Saturday! I'm ultra-psyched 'cuz I've actually been to Churchill Downs before! Adriano's jockey silks are purty! Who's your fave to win? IDK yet!
My horse Hunter is 3 breeds. 50% Arabian, 20% Belgian, and 30% thoroughbred. Hunter is so funny! What I find really puzzling, is that he's scared of anything white, and HE'S white! Whenever he eats an apple, he sucks on it! He LOVES treats! He gobbles them up before you even hold your hand close enough to his mouth! ~ Lunatuna ~
i used 2 ♥ horses i did lose all interest in horses but my friend got one for Christmas so sometimes we ride together when we are not busy with stupid work high school is really hard!
lol when i was little me and my friends decided that we would save all our money and buy a horse 2 share. of course that never happened but i stil dream of getting 1. they are just so wonderful! and i'd also love 2 learn 2 ride. right now the closest thing i hav 2 horses though is horse books. lol!
dear unicorn~princess, i luv horses and unicorns 2! sadly i dont own either of them. lol. they both r just beautiful creatures. my other fave magical creature is fairies. wat other magical creatures do u like? plz write back soon!
U r sooooooo lucky if u have a horse!!!! I love them! I also like unicorns who look like VERY pretty horses!! Click on the heart if u like UNICORNS 2!!
I love horses! thay are so butiful crechers the way thay muve acros the hils of the controy. thay are such pesful anamles. some people say thay are just horses or thar just another anamal but i think thar rong that more then that thar spirets gostes. people shud not cach and try two tame them. they shud be wild and fre two rome wer thay want for ever. so thay wont becom exstenkt.
I LUV horses!!! I take english riding lessons and I luv them!!! I won 1st place in my first show!!! I absolutly luv to ride!!! I want to buy my own horse. got any money saving ideas?
I love horses!! I don't ride them much any more . I feel free and safe on a horse! my friend says they stink!I tell her if you love them they don't stink so bad! I love riding ,and hope to have a horse of my own some day!
Me and my sister both own horses and I am so grateful to I am almost always riding or at the barn I love it !!! I don't now what I would do with out horses ! if you have any questions about horses I'm the person to ask!
Oh no! Now my the owner of these horses says that another lady is interested, and she might sell to her instead! NO! I love Charlie and Duke wayyyy too much to part with them, and my neighbor said she was interested in getting one, too!
levelground, I know a place if you're near it. Garrod Farms in Los Gatos. Spelling is bad. They are really cool. They're horses rock. My favorite is Pete and Grizzly, they are both Chestnut horses. Bonus, they have two cats and a dog, but he's deaf. One cat's name is Duchess and the other I can't remember. The dog's name is Duke, or something.
Who doesn't like horses? They are the best! Well, dogs AND horses are the top best in the pet world!!! And who doesn't love horseback riding and trails?
AAaaaahhhhhh!!! Today I just learned that my 2 fave horses EVER are for sale! Eeeekk! They have to be sold together, and my parents only wanna buy 1, but MAYBE my neighbor will buy the other, cuz she hearts horses and has a barn&field, too! But thing is, we have to put a fence around our field! If we don't buy them, I probably won't ever see them again! I'm crossing my fingers and praying that I can get them! I love them so much! And it'll help me to have other pets when my dog is put down, too, so I really really hope it all works out!
I ride English AND Western! I go to Western horse camps and ride Western on trails, but I have English lessons. I love riding, and both styles are wayKewl!
Oh, chocolatte, I don't get that magazine, but there's a British mag by the name of PONYmag, and it is soooooo cool! I love it! Only thing is, it costs more in the bookstore because it comes all the way from the U.K., but it rocks!
Hey, horse lovers! There is this cool magazine called PONY and it comes with monthly packages, which you can choose not to order because each one costs money. A subscription to the magazines only costs $4-$8 though, so it is a good deal and they are very great for us horse people! ~Choco*Latte
I LUV RIDING! It is so much fun! I love jumping and cantering, riding makes me forget all about my problems and school work. i can just relax and enjoy the fuzzy animals! Horses are soooooooooo CUTE! I am a champion in competition actully!
i love horses i own 3 horses there names are cathleen Beau and this is are baby his name is Carlin he is beau and Cathleen's baby cathleen is a female and Beau is a male i love them all and i plan to keep them as long as they live
When I went to horse camp in the summer,we had a show at the end and (it was a week long camp) we all got awards and I got 'Most Improved Posting'!! i was sooo proud.

i really like horses, cause they're gentle and very cute. My Dad used to have a farm, and we had a lot of Miniature horses there. I was really sad when my Dad sold our farm, and the horses and the rest of the animals
I do not have a horse but my cousin has 2 the boy is blue and the girl is silvia but i have been riding my whole life but if i had a horse it would be a boy and it would be a black and white paint and his name would be Deoblo De-ob-low but if it was a girl it would be white and caramel colered and named lacey. I really want a horse
I really want a horse its the one thing i really want in life i take lessons in CO. I'm a little sad (my fav horse died ) but I still love to rid though. she was a paint horse
last summer my friend introduced me to this woman who has two horses, and her mom knows her, so now we ride there a lot. But, at that time I had just come back from Europe, where I had riding lessons and tried to canter, but almost fell off instead! But, my friend and I went on a trail ride, and the horses spookedand started cantering. I stayed on, and controlled my horse, even though I was bareback! Im in luv w/the horse now, his name is Charlie and he's the sweetest Arabian ever! Now I canter a lot, and its soooo much fun!
hi every one not only am i a very dramatic actress and singer jk but i am a first place horseback riding champ i have won the young riding champ4 years in a row i have 3 horses i have been jumping since i was three and if you love horses vote for this comment.
Leaofparis, I barely ride, and I still ADORE horses! So trust me, it doesn't matter if u have ridden or not. OMG! I love the Saddle Club series and the shows on TV. They both rock! Learning about horses is so interesting, huh? Oh yeah, and Arabians are awesome! They r really pretty too, (like every horse!)
Ok, I'm kind of embarassed, becuase I've never actually gotten the chance to sit on a horse, but I still majorly love horses! Has anyone read the Saddle Club series? Before BSG, this was my major series passion! I learned all about horses. I also like Arabians, because they are from India.
OMG! This is my dream come true! LOL! My BFF has a horse... wait no 3! I'm so jealous. So, what's your fave breed? I really like Tennessee Walkers. They r so pretty!
Wow wow wow! This club must be really new! I didn't see it here this morning!!! LOL. I LOVE horses. I don't own any but I go to camp. The pony I ride there is named Chubby and his show name is Fat Chance. He's Really fat!!
