For me, its her little diamond on her nose. She LOVES kisses and will give you her snozzle at any opportunity.

Here it is (sorry if the photo is huge):

Your turn!!
 
For Charlie I think it must be his lovely nature, he loves cuddles and kisses so is there for me when I need a shoulder to cry on.

Millie I would say it's her cheeky personality but also her willingness to please.

Pixie amazes me in the way she has matured from a scruffy, wormy weanling that could hardly walk into quite a smart little two year old.
 
Mine is so well behaved on the ground! All the time I really couldnt fault him, although when I got him it used to take 3 or 4 people to catch him and he used to escape when turning out and run off (with a chiffney and lungline at one point). Not to mention his favourite old trick of pulling back and snapping his headcollars/leadropes but never the string! But now hes so good, its only taken a year :P
 
Everything!

I love how he always nuzzles my pockets for treats and how when I'm grooming him he grooms me back. I also love how he calls to me when he sees me. :)
 
For Z the fact that she is so sweet and lovely. She has a very soft nose and looks amazing at the age of 36yrs

Still getting to know B but so far, he is very quiet to handle, lovely to hack, he's got a really girly whinny, he picks his bucket up and throws it when he finishes his food xx
 
That whenever he sees me or hears my voice he puts his head right up and stares at me with a "hello oh good its you " look on his face and yes I am well aware that I mean cuddles and carrots;-))
 
i do love everything about my boy but especially the fact that every where i go on the yard and every step i take, my boy neighs for me constantly, but not in a stressed out way if you know what i mean. I love to know he loves me too!
 
The looks out the corner of his eye he gives me, he has very expressive eyes, makes me hoot with laughter. And the fact that for all his cheekiness and lack of interest in schooling he'll always make an effort for a jump and is a truly genuine pony.
 
My youngster i love everything about her, she has such a cheeky personality and she is stunning. I love my gleding sweet gentle nature and how willing he is to please.

That's what my horse does too, even if I'm mucking out his stable and he's tied up on the yard and he sees me he neighs!!
 
the way he trusts me, no matter how frightened of something he is.
the way he hides his head in my chest when he's frightened of the vet, and just gets as close as possible before staying still.
the way he can hold an entire conversation with me, with no human words spoken.
and especially the way he can forgive me when i'Ve walloped him with the yard brush by mistake cause he's forgotten where i'm mucking out!
 
with My mare it is the way she is so sweet around my little girl, who is 7. Milly is 16.2hh but if my daughter wants to out ehr headcollar or fly mask on she puts her head right down almost to the floor and lets her take ages trying to put it on! especially given she is quite headshy with grown ups. Also she heards the other horses away form her and looks after her when we are poo picking!
as for daughters pony, i love how he looks after her if he thinks she is going to come off he stops dead! Also find it quite funny that he is a little bugger with her but as soon as she sees me notice he is like butter wouldnt melt!

Her character.
She's got a huge character, she is very willing once she has built trust in you and is protective over "her" people.
She is never nasty to other people, anyone could do her, catch her, ride her etc but she is extra special to me an my mum.
 
Loads of things!

How much he enjoys being groomed and having his belly scratched. How great he is about the little day-to-day things: always loads onto anything, great with farrier etc. We clipped him this week for probably the second time in his life and he really enjoyed it. How great he is at standing still (sounds minor, but so many aren't), especially at standing still for mounting. This thing he does with his mouth when he's thirsty and sees you carrying water. Finally, how good he is at keeping himself in one piece (touch wood), he never seems to get injured and if he gets into a situation (e.g. tangled in a rope) he doesn't panic and gets himself back out of it safely.
 
I just adore my horse.

My favourite thing is how he has the sweetest, softest face in the world and if you kiss him he loves it! I love how his coat gleams like dark gold satin and the way his forelock hangs down between his beautiful liquid brown eyes.

When riding him, I like that he really loves to work and try hard. He digs deep to give you that little bit extra just when you least expect it.

He also has a cheeky, strong and spirited side to his personality which belies his 'butter wouldnt melt' looks! It gives him an edge that I love.

There we go enough gushing lol!
