Do You Ride Horses?

@ Lexi

Tricky Business sounds cool :3
Show names aren't something I have much experience with... I don't think of them too often. Though I'd love to think of one for my mare Malibu :3

Gandalf The Grey: (love the username by the way) You're 5'9"?1? Holey, that's tall! I feel so tiny on horses that are like, 14.3hh-15hh @.@ I'm used to riding big ponies but now I'm on a smaller horse and I still feel tiny! But I'm only 5'2.5" soooo hahah. I feel short to everyone really, my mom and dad tower over me and my bf's 6 feet O.o let alone a huge horse!

Thanks!
Yeah, I tower over most everyone. I'm still growing and could hit 6 foot(I'm a girl)
I believe that Choices is about 16.3 hh, which is a pretty good size. I'm as tall as my mom, and a few inches shorter than my dad. My crush(Since I don't have a BF) is about 6 foot as well. Some horses I can almost lay on.
Small horses sometimes feel right because they have long necks. Choices has a ultra long neck.....

@Favorite Horse:
I have four favorite horses. before i actually had lessons, I sometimes rode an appy stallion named Fancy, he was the sweetest horse alive. When I first started to ride, I rode a horse named Purple(Who actually looked purple) he was a dear and made me feel so confident and cool. My next favorite mare was Dance, an retired racehorse(Her registered name was Dancing Bean, no kidding) She wasn't flashy and lost weight easily, but she would do whatever you would ask of her. Progressive Choices(more affectionately known as Choices or silly, big girl) is the mare I currently ride most often. We work really well together, and she's a very sweet mare.

@Lexi
I like Tricky Business, Little Miss Spunk and Sugar and Spice. They seemed to fit her personality really well.

Boomer is wrapping his hoof around my finger...he loves me. I don't know why its like from the first day we meet its been blooming and branching out from there. He follows me around everywhere and nudges me mostly my hand looking for treats I usually bring him lol. I love that horse I never have bonded this strongly with any animal before well not like this. He loves everyone but especially me. When I was over feeding him carrots with my ex (Don't ask personal) he was giving him treats also but when I fed Boomer he followed me away from my ex and was following me around the field. He didn't do this to my ex. I guess you could say I meet my soul horse. <3

@Tallest horse ever ridden: The tallest horse I've ever ridden is my (17.2hh) pony Thinker :)

@Favorite horse ever ridden: This is a tough question for me... I don't really have a favorite horse ever. I loved my horse Ceasar so much, but different than I love Thinker, and different than I loved Black Mist... I would say Thinker has been the best match for me though. Unlike when I owned Ceasar, Thinker doesn't intimidate me and sometimes scare me when I ride him; I'm super confident on him (even if I broke my collarbone falling off him).

@Hime: Any baby news?? :D

Guess what Friday is? Camp out at the barn! I'm sooooooo excited. I'm probably going to sneak out of my tent and go see my Think Think :) I'm going to the barn pretty much every day until next Tuesday; I don't think I'm going Sunday, but I might for the heck of it (and to get Italian ice from the ice cream machine).
HorseLoverz.com is also having an AMAZING sale until tonight I think. Up to 80% off and buy one get one free! I'm about to order some boots for Thinker that are BOGO for $30 in black and white :)

@Timaeus Testified; I like Guilty Pleasure! She's really pretty though <3

@Timaeus Testified I agree with everyone I like Guilty Pleasure

[excalibur.]

@tallest horse: The tallest horse I have ever ridden was 19.2hh. It was a huge shire gelding and he was absolutely beautiful. The smallest I have ever rode was a 9hh Shetland gelding called Rammy when I was 1. He was soooo cute.

@Blue:
It depends on how much you use them. It sounds like with how much you would use them it sounds like they would last for quite a while. I always drag my feet so the bottoms of my boots are usually worn down pretty fast. Although I haven't had that problem at all with my tony lamas. And anyway, you could always get them resoled.

@Opal:
Totally agree. While I do like horses that are around 15 hand or so, Queso is 14 hands even, and although I fit him fine, I feel like into big at times. And I am perfect size to work with him, it's more of a self conscious thing where I ride a shorter horse than everyone else. But I don't really mind because my horse works for me so much better than everyone else's.

@Largest ever ridden:
Probably my draft boy Rocky. He is 17.2 hands. After Rocky, probably Oreo, he is 17 hands.

@Oliviaoi:
No problem!! Anytime!!

@Fav Horse Ridden:
Probably Queso just because I've had to work so hard with him to get him where he's at now. And he's still progressing. He can be the biggest jerk to ride sometimes, but when he has good days it's like a dream.

@Lexi:
It sounds like she is gorgeous!!! I like Tricky Business! I think that's a pretty BA name!! I like Guilty Pleasure too. And My kinda Paradise. But Tricky Business is my fav I think.
