3. my horses wer 18 and older when i bought them. they both....*looks around* they both were over 30 the last time i saw them. i'm only considering the ones i've owned longer then 3 months. for most these questions.

4. my pony was 14.2 and my horse was 16.2, idk the other two's hieghts because i didnt keep them that long (show horses that didnt work out)

5. i had my pony for over 10 years. and my horse i had for a long time( dont exactly remember)

14. while riding? i was taking my arab pony out for a ride, i decided to let her gallop along at whatever speed she wanted, a few mins later she tripped and fell, she landed on top of me, but when she got back up she didnt end up steping on me again.  it didnt hurt, and we were both fine, little shooken up but okay. i was riding bare back and we did land in the mudd. but other then that not too much horrible in the way of riding accidents.

15. i've done: showing(flat work), showing(hunter/jumper), showing (barrel racing at fun shows, pole bending and fun classes) trail ride, eventing, rode english/western.  took my horse to ky horse park, rode on the rolex clorse(we had a tour of it on horse back, we didnt do their jumps), took my horses camping.

Answer 18

Western. (I had a bad experience riding English.)

6th Grade.

This year, my horses would be 10, 6, and 3.

Respectively, they are 15.1hh, 16.1hh, and the other was still growing last I saw her.

Respectively, 3 years, 2 years, and 2 years.

I have had three horses. (I lost them due to a family situation in 2007.)

I was 11 or 12.

All of my horses were crossbreeds.

1 was a buckskin. 1 was a sorrel paint. 1 was a palomino paint.

None of them were registered.

Pennsylvania.

Lead Ropes.

I loved just being out in the field with my babies.

My sorrel paint broke my nose once. I was also run over by my palomino paint's sire.

With my buckskin mare, I barrel raced, gamed, and trail rode. With the sorrel paint, I trail rode and did a little cow work. The palomino paint was too young to ride.

I loved giving them pb&j's.

I rode western mainly. I hopped on bareback when I didn't feel like tacking up. But now, I don't ride.

When my horse kicked another horse away from me that was about to kick me in the head. The other horse had me backed up into a corner and was about to rear at me, then my horse kicked her away. and that was after just having her for one day!  One of my funny memories is that my horse was flung into a pond by a lead mare. So we took her out of the pasture to dry of cause it was cold out. And we gave her sweet feed. Then my dad decided that she had enough, so we put the lid back on. And sandy was sitting there trying to get it open and she did. it went every where but it was funny!

We were on the road, and this little scooter comes by sandy was all fine with it. Then he came back and was right next to us. it freaked her out and she kept backing up and foward and to the side and i couldnt calm her down. Then it was hard to ride her the rest of the way home.
