I dont have any horses of my own, but I ride a quarter horse mare named Spring. Shes a light chestnut, about 16 hands and she has a white blaze and 2 white socks on her front legs. She is always very forward and listens to all of your commands, but she cant to flying changes =(. She can jump up to 3', I do 2,9. Shes perfect. She does Hunters. PICTURES: ___________________________________ I also ride a brown Dutch Warmblood named Beanie. Hes 18. Hes a Jumper and hes awesome. Not much else to tell. PICTURES: _____________________________________ Then theres Calvin. Hes close to 20 and a dark chestnut. Hes a retired racehorse and duh, a TB. Hes about 16 hands and jumps about 2 foot. He has some back issues, but, whatever. I have no pictures __________________________________ This is Henry. Hes a chestnut pony. Hes a bit of a nutcase and takes off with kids sometimes, but, hes ADORABLE!!! PICTURES: ___________________________________ This is Q. Shes 16 hands and shes about 15. Shes a TB and does hunters. This is my sister riding her a couple years ago when she just started jumping. Shes REALLY CUTE! PICTURES: _________________________________________________ Okay, I'm done now. Sorry, I know. Picture overload.

She never raced, actually. They were gonna race her, but she injured her foot and they couldnt put her on the track, so, they sold her to us.
Thanks! V loves her. She was 9 when these were taken. Shes 13 now.

I think low teens are the best times for horses, they aren't old and they aren't young. Remember Sonny, the horse I always talk about? He is around 13 now. I LOVE YOU SONNY! Sorry... lol

Especially when you are a beginner rider, low teens are wise and teach you so much! If you are advanced intermediate to advanced, you might want to get a young horse and start it from the beginning, but everyone should have a teenager horse! They are nothing like teen-ager humans!

very awesome pictures! and a little secret..my horse can't really do flying lead changes either...its like pulling teeth when I ask him to do a flying change..but he loves his momma, so he does it eventually. =] practice makes perfect.
