There are 2 types of horses... Just for fun!

[Red-1]

I was having a lovely ride out on H today. We did a route we haven't done for a while and, on the way home, the bridleway was somewhat overgrown.

I have a habit with this, that I will break off any branches I can, as I ride along. BH is a lovely youngster, and quite mellow. I have had some horses in the past that I would not have DREAMED of snapping off branches when riding, it would have ended in disaster!

It made me think... There are 2 types of horses in this world, one type would panic if you broke a branch above his/her head, the other would try to snack on it!

Made me think of some other ways that there are 2 types of horse...

One type would panic and dump you if you lose your balance, the other would do their utmost to keep you in the plate (not sure where BH would be on that just yet).

One type can have a month off and go for a relaxed ride, the other would need counselling that the holiday was over.

Any others?

There are two types of horses, one type...

 

[SO1]

From my instructor who said there are two types of horses broken ones and ones that are about to become broken. They seem such fragile beasts.

There are 2 types of horses in this world. One type would eat anything, including their own foot given half a chance. The other needs organic balancer grown on the tip of Mount everest, harvested on a blood moon on the 12th hour of the 12th day of the 12th month, served on a bed of chaff harvested by unicorns.

Sobering, but not wrong!

LOL. Rigsby would eat me if I stood still long enough! But I have had another horse who actually had the feed grown on the Alps, with flowers and organic air. I LOL at myself. ?

There are two types of horses in this world, those that see fencing and eat near it, and those who have to go thru/over/under #grassisalwaysgreener

Not forgetting those who roll next to it and get tangled!!!! (RIGSSSSSSSBY!!!).

 

[Cloball]

Ones that run away from cows and ones that try to lick their faces.....Albeit the majority fall into the run away kind in my experience

[Cowpony]

There are two types of horses - the ones who wear the same rug for years, and the ones who shred every new rug you put on them within 5 minutes. Sigh!

 

[PapaverFollis]

[ponynutz]

Ones who let you pull their mane and ones who create a wall, you, horse sandwich if you even come near them with the evil metal comb.

(Guess which one mine falls under)

 

[ycbm]

What a great thread!

I got beaten to the food, I have the harvested by unicorns one, its a pain!

There are two types of cross country horses, one type you point them at the fence and tell them to jump, the other starts scanning for the next flagged fence as you land the last one.

[nagblagger]

One that gets obese by looking at a blade of grass, the other eats buckets of feed and still looks like a bionic hat-rack l

 

[Snow Falcon]

Those who stay in a field.

Those who have every trick in the book not to!!

And those who manage to teleport others into their field. (How my old boy did it I'll never know?)

 

[Red-1]

Oooh, I have another.

Those who need rugs undoing to remove.

And those who appear, rugs at the side, with all fastenings done up - and no damage/injuries!

Jay Man was one of those!

my TB loved cows. She would flirt with them. Also loved her mane and tail being pulled.

there are 2 types of horses. Those that look up when you shout (one even knew my car) and those you can have for 18 years and they still refuse to acknowledge you…. Unless you’ve got a bucket.

Mine will eat anything she finds in a hedgerow but nothing I put in a bucket!

 

[ycbm]

Another.

Those who limp in with a leg hanging off and look at you as if to say "it's just a scratch".

And thoroughbreds.

?

 

[maya2008]

Two types of ponies: ones that like children and ones that don’t!!

 

[PapaverFollis]

Ones that can get turned out in a rubbish dump surrounded by barb wire and never get into trouble... Ones that manage to half dismember themselves in a padded cell.

She’s the best kind of nuts ?

 

[DabDab]

There are two types of horse...
Those that are a suitable mount for a pub ride
And those not worth owning

 

[catkin]

There are 2 types of horses

Those who are born supervisors and have to closely inspect everything that anyone they pass is doing.. And those that have an attack of the vapours if something looks at them funny.


There are also those who think that a village carnival band dressed as yellow munchkins is (or should be) the most normal everyday occurrence. And those who are not Welsh.

 

[ycbm]

Those which walk up to you in the field and stick their nose into a headcollar.

And those I never want to own again!

There are two types of horses, one type...

I used to regularly ride under some low hanging edible branches - willow, beech, hazel, ash etc. I used to break off small branches for horses to eat. Gathering an armful to take back with us. Horses quickly supported this game! But we did used to spook other horses we past laden with branches! Except the ones that automatically saw food.

There are two types of horses - those that can stand on 3 legs whilst you trim / clean foot, and those that sometimes think that is too much effort to balance and start to sit / lie down as easiest option. Guess which I own?

 

[smolmaus]

There are two types of horses, one will look at a speeding audi roaring down the road and get a bit nervous.

There are others that will barely notice the car but will spook at a fully stationary rock that's a "funny colour".
