What would be your dream horse?

My current horse shod would be good, he won't hold shoes so is barefoot but thin soled so I have to fanny around with boots but I love him dearly. He is 19 though and my absolute dream when he is eventually no longer with us is to have a 5yo Friesian. *sigh*
 
I don't think I could choose colour, make and model for my dream horse - it's the attitude of the horse that matters to me and it could come in any shape or size I think.

Forward-thinking, honest, lively but not dangerous, cooperative, communicative, enthusiastic, gentle.

Am also "shopping" for a horse at the moment....

I found just this :D he is the one in my siggy. He will be my perfect horse with a little more schooling and experience. 15.3h 7 year old WB with lovely paces!
He sometimes gets a little excited and bouncy and very occasionally has the odd strop or buck but that's it. he is not spooky at all. lovely to handle, loves cuddles, being clipped is his idea of heaven and loves work
Only downside is (if you can call it that) he is chestnut with almost a white face, which in appearances are the two things I would not choose :p

and to think I nearly walked away from him not once but twice :eek:
 
I've had my once in a lifetime horse but my dream horse going forwards...

Can I have 2?

Well I'd like a traditional cob, just like the one I've got, only entire and never gets dirty... well you did say dream...

And I'd also like a Chestnut hannovarian with a really good attitude 4 or 5 year old with fab paces to train up to grand prix (dr). I would also like to have the time to do this again!!

Bonkers !

just a little bigger, younger, more confident with his jumping away from home, A MANE, and abit more 'wow'.

but im more than happy with my boy. hes as close to perfect as ill get
 
My current riding horse would have been my dream horse when I was a teenager. At 15/16 I couldnt realy have dreamt of something with her ability. Now I think shes fab and I'm really, really grateful to have the opportunity to own her, but I do feel guilty that I'm not using her to her full advantage. She was bought the way middle age men buy Ferraris :D I do love her, but shes not 'perfect' for me.

I do however have a foal on ice in the field, that will be my dream horse. I have no doubt that hes one of those "horse of a lifetime" horses. I cant fault him, and the fact I've will have had him since weaning will make it even better. Every time I look at him etc I just get "that" feeling. I almost sold him a few months back for a ridiculous profit, but something inside me just kept screaming no, no, NO!!

I just need to wait another 3 years before I can ride him, and I CANT wait!
