Haflingers. They are awesome, we go pony sledding, go to long shows, and so much more! These guys take it all in stride and are so sweet.

My funnest time with a horse was when I had finished riding in a competition. Me and my horse-loving friend, and fellow competitor, were riding my white Pony Of America mare. We parked her near a man on his horse. We were young at the time, so that’s why we decided to decorate my pony so she looked like an Indian pony. We started making handprints out of “mud”, and so the man dismounted and walked over to us. “You do know that that is horse poop, right?” He asked. After a good hand washing, my friend and I had a good laugh. We still do every time we hear the story.

My horse Hawk and I love spending time out of the saddle in the winter when the arena is iced over building snowmen in his paddock, then he kicks them down and we build more!

My favorite ride was a trail ride. It was a hot day so my friends, the horses and I cooled off in the marsh.Then we went cantering down a trail. But the trail had fallen trees,so,we jumped them,waiting for the next jump down the trail.Cooled off in the marsh again and rode home happy.And that was the most, fun,ever!

The most I have had in my riding career so far was the day when I bought my horse and we ran the barrel pattern. He was amazing! It felt so good and right then I knew that this summer would be a great barrel racing season! He is such a great horse and I am so happy I own him.

The most fun horseback adventures are those which are not planned. For example, on a trail ride one lovely fall day, one of the girls I was riding with fell off, and her horse took off across a field of crops. With the only other rider on a green horse, I had to chase down the runaway and still at a full gallop lean over and grab her reins. It was the most exhilarating experience I had ever had.

One of the most fun things I have done was at a camp. We got to draw on the horses (was washable of course)and when we where done, we took a picture of them and I still laugh at it now.

I love just spending time with my horse. I will just hop onto him bareback – just a halter and lead-rope – and ride him to his pasture and while he is walking around grazing, i “reverse-cowgirl” and just read a book using his rump as a book-holder. We spend time together – each doing our favorite relaxing activity – him eating while getting pets and scratches and me Reading and chilling with him.

Swimming in the Yellowstone river together! I was surprised my 24 year old Arab would do it, but it ended up being super fun for both of us.

I personally think that the most fun i ever have with my horse is just working on our bond, I’ll spend time just trying to see if she will follow me, I just spend time with her. Just having fun being together, I also enjoy just messing around by riding bareback and relaxing in the company of horses. It just gives a sense of peaceful ness that you can’t find anywhere else.
