Tis a well known fact amongst the gentry that only the very finest bred horses have moustaches and ergots.

They are to catch any food that may have dropped from the cob's mouth while eating. This ensures every morsel is consumed

Hi,Maybe because cob owners are too scared to ride 'proper' horses
as a cob owner I will say that my girl has strides smoother than the thoroughbred I ride, is not small and is so responsive that if you kick she will gallop, you only need to squeeze! You could never call her lazy and she is really beautiful has won shows and stuff in the past.

I will never understand it.
They are fat, lazy, hairier than Bigfoot, and usually bad tempered.
Their paces are so stilted, that they look as though they've had their legs tied together, which gives the rider a nasty jolty ride.
I suppose I can understand riding schools having them, for the scaredy novices, but once you can rise to the trot, surely you'd buy a decent blood horse, or at least a Warmblood?
Your thoughts?

SLOTH???!!!!
WHAT DO YOU MEAN? My cob is BEAUTIful, light, pretty and floats rather than walks! She is NOT fat either!

You're in denial :wink3: All cobs are fat, slow and moustachey. It's an irrefutable truth.

I think that all these cob-fanciers are forgetting to use the phrase "relatively speaking" in their posts...

Ah yes... relative to a tectonic plate, cobs are somewhat speedy :wink3: But only just. I've seen grass grow quicker.

the posts belong to them as they deigned to elaborate on their opinions the spelling, punctuation, and grammar were all completely correct as the english grammar rules of possesion apply. Hope that helps. xxx

I do worry about his chicken legs, and his tiny little feet - the poor spindly thing

If you're seeing their legs when you ride, the saddle may be the wrong way round. Your head should be pointing to the sky, not the ground :wink3:

True, but they can have also a beautiful nature which is very comforting for novice riders.I love the gypsy cobs with their fantastic manes and lovely gentle and patient way they have with people and they are also very clever.
