Arabs

How many people do and dont like Arabs? Or whats you fav. breed? :mrgreen:

 

I don't mind Arabians. They're not my favorite, but I like them. Not enough to own one though Take a guess from my screen name, I'll take a Thoroughbred over anything else any day.

 

Haha me too. i trained my OTTB from when she was 5 i loved it, and now she is so perfect, i think lol, she trailers perfect goes through water is not spooky and i did natural horsemanshipwith her. I would
encourage anyone to do that it is sooo good for them and you! now i do Hunters/Jumpers and i am taking dressage lessons on her she is little, only 15.2, but she is a powerhouse!!

 

i hate arabs my favorite breed is ottb/paint thats what one of my horses are! :!: :!: and i love her so much that horse of mine

 

I cant say I 'hate' any breed of horse, since when you get down to it they are all horses. Im not too keen on arabs, I like some, and dont care for others. I have an Arab cross stallion and he is a handful, but I love him to death!

But I do prefer Paso Finos and Paints ( a colored Paso Fino put the icing on the cake for me)

 

Arabians are an okay horse but i wouldnt say they are the best!
I prefere warmbloods! I own a Hanoverian myself.

 

Personally, if its got four legs, a tail and a mane, I love it.

The Caspian is intresting to me. My Bio professor just had a filly. She's adorable!

 

i luv arabs but i still love the endolusions and i still cant spell the name

thanx!

 

lippizaners (sp?) are my fav.

I think arabs are beautiful. Too high strung for me, but beautiful nonetheless.

 

andelusions are beautiful. I always did like the percherons and clydes as well....oh and not to mentions your plain ol' mutt horses!!!

 

I'd have to agree w/ Samsintentions....(ouy, thats a mouthful!) :lol:
If its got 4 legs, a mane and a tail, then I adore it. I'm not really crazy about Arabians, but mine's a gentleman.

I'm really fond of all the draft breeds, anything w/ a percheron (or bigger) build. Horse feathers are beautiful! More! More! :love_y_t_much:

I'd like to own a retired carrage horse one day. I'd spend hours brushing out those legs. Le sigh.

 

I must say Arabs have never been a favorite of mine! to high strung for me!! I have always loved quarter horses. I have trained thouroughbreds right off the track. But I stopped that after one broke me!! 5 days of being paralized was enough for me. I would not mind a quarter/thoroughbred mix. I have heard they make GREAT barrel racers. Fast as lighting and can turn on a dime!!

 

You'd love Taco then!! She's half perch, and quarter.

The baby is sooo cute!

I'm training a clydes....his feathers have been shaved off though. When they brought him to me, his legs were sooo matted with burs it was hopeless..... but they're growing back out rather quickly!

 

TACO! What an adorable name! I think we need a thread about cute/funny/original horse names.

Aw! Well, I hope those feathers grow back in this Texas heat (I think thats where you are.)lol

Do you know what the sire of Taco's baby (colt/filly?) was? Wonder how big it'll get...hmm....only a good 5 or 6 years and you'll know for sure.
lol

 

We have 7 full-bred Arabians. I love them. So many people say they are so high strung and "crazy". Mine are so sweet. Every one of 'em. Especially my horse, Khomaya. Her and I are on like the same brainwave...I know what she plans on doin, before she does it. I rode her once and we had a cat that wanted to ride too...well rather than let me help him up...he decided to climb up himself...or jump...he just kinda stuck to the right side of her stomach. I've never seen or felt that horse bounce so much...and I held on the whole time...I thought she was gonna kill me. But ever since then...we are closer. We don't stand still to long when cats come near anymore. :lol:

Also, when i was younger, my mom would help me on and off of her...but she always had trouble getting me off...because Khomaya (a mare) would start getting very protective of me and start acting like a stallion, and grunt and get very agitated whenever mom got close.

We also have a gelding who is the cutest thing in the world. He looks almost like a quarter horse...he never grows his forlock...he always rubs it off. And I have him nearly trained to nod yes when i ask him a question. And he loves to stick his tongue out all the way and make the funniest faces. He is such a beast. He's SOOO short, but he's SOOO solid!

We also have a stallion who's like great-grandfather (or grandfather, i forget) was a hugely famous breeding stallion (Bold Fire), and his grandpa (or father) was Bold Finale. He is Bold Finales Legacy. He's so cute...at a show once, I gave him a kiss on his nose, and he looked almost embarrased, it was so cute!

I love my horses...my arabians...

 

WHAT!?!?!?

I THINK YOUR ALL MESSED UP IN THE HEAD!!! I LOVE ARABS MORE THAN ANY BREED EVER!!!THEY ARE NOT HIGH STRUNG AT ALL THATS A MYTH AND THEY ARE THE MOST BEUTIFULL BREED OF HORSE EVER NO QUESTIONS ASKED!!!ANYONE WHO DOSENT LIKE ARABS MUST BE COMPLETLY MESSED UP CUZ I OWN AN ARAB GELDING NAMED HAMIS AND HE IS A TOTAL SWEET HEART!!!I LOVE HIM TO DEATH!!!SO WHOEVER HATES ARABS YOU BETTER WATCH OUT!!!!!!!

 

Ok Arab lover, no need to get all bent out of shape here!


Taco is doing great and baby is getting big!!!!

She should mature to be about 15.5-16hh
She's going to be one Stocky filly!!!!

Oh yes, Feathers will grow back anywhere. One thing about Texas and the heat is skin allergies that can develop under all that hair!

 

I LOVE Arabs... I guess I'm a sucker for the hard work that comes with them being high strung and all... I love that about them (I know I know I'm a weirdo) but I love them... I Like Fresians too...and TB's...I'd LOVE to have an Anglo Arab.

But to be honest...I'm also in the same school of thought that if it has four legs, a mane and tail I love it.

 

I love Standardbreds, Appaloosas and Arabs. But I wouldn't like to own an Arab, they can be a handfull....
