Here's my boy Chester in the stable:

Obviously eating was much more important than posing for a photo. xD He looks pretty short here --or it might just be me...--, but he's actually around 16hh+ I'd say. I may be wrong, but he's certainly taller than little ol' me. ;3 Unfortunately I cut his butt off in this picture, but in the other one where I fit him in completely, Chester moved his head and it's kinda blurry.

SO cute! And tell us if you get to go to that stables, it looks like tons of fun. I'd love to ride a Gypsy...

Uman was a good horsey today! My trainer lunged him at first because we got a new gate and she didn't want him to spook. He was insane, it was pretty funny. xD Then I rode him, and he was very loose and comfy... I only rode him for a short time because it was really hot (the heat index for later in the day is supposed to be 117 degrees D:) and he was already tired from the lunging.

Good. What color and breed is the foal?

Yes it was me :3
She looks just like her mother,brown,white blaze and one big sock,and I think the rest of her feet have small ones :3
She should be a quarter horse,but we aren't sure what her daddy was,we don't even know who her dad was.Someone said her mother looks like a Thoroughbred but i'm pretty sure she is a quarter horse.

Thanks. ;3 I'll make sure to let you all know how it goes, if I do ride there. My reaction as soon as my mum told me they were Gypsy Vanners was "YEEEEEEEES, yesyesyesyes! Let's go there.", so hopefully we'll be able to.
There was another place we've been to before, but it was a Western stable and I was hoping to try a lesson there, but they're closed for breaking and training their young horses at the moment, and they're not sure when they'll be open again. :c Ah well.

Yay, a horsey thread. :3 I think I'll like it here.

I don't really have that much to say though, so this is kind of of Spam. xD
But anyways, I have a lesson every Saturday with my brother, I don't have any pictures of the horse though.
I don't own any horses, but I'd really like some.

I live in Wales (cardiff) and i have been st D's its reallly nice but not expect too much out of a beach ride they are mainly cobs/heavy horses so you wont be going too fast across the beach.
btw Mandy-Lou22 is soooo amazing wanna give her a massive hug
also thank you to Asura for giving me my dream pet
also thank you to AiraSkylar for giving be the 08 advent of my dreams
another thank you to ~Amberleaf~ who gave me 3 free rares!

I'm not sure we'd be going on that anyway; I'm the only one who has experience and rides regularly that will be going, so we'll stick to one of the others.
Thanks anyway. ;3

vanners are more like ponies, given their shortness, than heavy horses. theyre like haflingers.
