Does your horse chase rabbits?

[Copperpot]

Was house sitting at the yard where my horse lives, so just before dark went to say night.

He was cantering along, nose to the ground chasing a rabbit.

I've always thought he was a bit "special" now I know he's just bonkers

Bless him! Mine will chase dogs... never seen her chase a rabbit.

Mine does and he has caught some.
The local Buzzard pair are big fans of his & have beaten me to a couple of his catches - he runs them over!

 

[Copperpot]

I am not alone then he won't chase dogs but he does chase chickens too! If I find any squished bunnies I will know its him!

 

[ChestnutTinker]

Violet chases cats??

 

[Haylee]

Yep! My cob chased bunnies when I hacked him out before I brought him what did I get my self in to

 

[Megibo]

Not rabbits, but she will chase dogs and chickens all day. Nose to the floor, running after them. It's a wonder she doesn't kick herself in the chin!

 

[pippixox]

got lots of pheasants around us, which if they dare get near at dinner time are at risk of nearly getting their heads bitten off by my boy. same goes for chickens, but he wont normally chase them.

One of ours chases rabbits, and dogs, I've even caught him trying to stomp a Jackdaw

My older girl used to chase them when she was a baby & also used to chase joggers when she was in a field that had a public footpath through it

My younger girl chases rabbits now too, even saw her try to chase a bird the other day. She'll chase me up the field if I run & has been known to chase dogs.. She just likes to play with things that move fast enough

Our Welsh D made used to stomp them to death, not nice when picking out her hooves

Mines a rabbit chaser too! He's also fascinated by cats and dogs, when i rented my field down the river a woman stopped me and showed me a photo she'd taken of my horse leaning over the fence nose to nose with her dog. He's very friendly, I suspect he only wanted to play with the rabbits lol!

 

[Copperpot]

Mine loves dogs apart from if he's eating. I have a video of him grooming a dog over his stable door.

Mine loves any animals he's fascinated by the goats at the stables which continually head butt him yet he goes back for more . He also loves to harass the cat - pushed it off the wall the other day !

I wish, our two are ok with chickens, initially scared of Donkeys, ignore the pheasants and my lad loves grooming a bull, both are now curious about the lambs getting into the field

Not the horses, but the cows in the field opposite our yard take great pleasure cantering and chasing after the geese!
Apparently the geese sometimes turn around and try to chase the cows. It really is hilarious to watch.

Our welsh mountain pony used to kill & shred them!! We used to think it was a nearby farm dog which had got into the habit of it or something but the numbers started adding up (bodies left in his paddock) and one day we caught him in the act - horrible creature! Thankfully since moving house he's stopped killing them and just chases them.... hopefully it will stay this way, it wasn't pleasant - poor things!!

Roo chases them. If they make it to the edge of the paddock he stands snorting at them.
He does stomp on them: I had to put a poor bunny with a broken back out of it's misery a while ago
