1: If your horse could talk what would they say? What would they be like?
He would be that pushover husband that doesnt really agree or want to do a lot of the stuff but does it just to keep the peace. He was definitely be the fat kid that only likes a select few people and generally rolls his eyes at all the stupid stuff people do haha
2: If you were a horse, what would you look like (color, markings, etc), what discipline would you do, and what would you be like to ride?
I would be a huge chromed out Warmblood that really stands out in a crowd (afterall I am 6' tall myself and get starred at all the time!). I would be a really competitive eventer (at prelim and below, I mean who needs to be an over achiever!) for the right person but personally I would not want to own me in horse form!
3: How many barns have you ridden at?
In my life? Im not sure, like 8 or 9?
4: What kind of bay do you prefer? (bright bay, blood bay, etc)
Dark bay all the way! Not the biggest fan of bright bays
5: Can you braid a horse's mane? Tail?
My braiding skills are getting pretty advanced... but I would never braid a horse for the hunter show.
6: Do you believe that you have to fall off in order to be a good rider? If you never fall off im not sure how you are having fun! I fall off mainly doing stupid stuff these days
7: What do you think is more important: eq or effective riding?Effective riding. It would be really hard to have awful equitation if you are being effecting.
8: Are there any "horse couples" at your barn?
Barn owners... but the husband doesnt ride, just does chores.
9: Favorite treat to feed your horse?Whatever he wants :)
10: Silly quirks your horse has.
Ummm.... he unties himself?
11: Strangest thing you've fed your horse.I dont know. I offer him anything that I am eating.
12: Have you ever made any horse friends through the internet?
Yes especially "met" a lot of people when I was more into the feedlot rescues
13: Would you buy horse furniture?
Not sure. I wouldnt deck my whole house out in horse stuff but I would totally make a little girls room horsey
14: Funniest horsey moment
Too many. Like I said earlier, I do a lot of stupid stuff!
15: Post a picture of your horse (or any horse) making a silly face that you got on camera!
When I taught Tolo to smile! |
Also too many to name. I have gotten pretty lucky with some moments with Alanna and her horses. I usually leave it up to her to entertain me.
17: How old was the youngest horse you've met?
I have seen a few births including Apollo (who I was originally going to get over Mystic). Loved this guy! He was actually born over a month premature and wasnt expected to live. He got tons of plasma within the first 3 days and ended up making it without any further issues! My cousins and I got to name him
The first two are when he was about 2 years old. I cant find the baby pictures of him and I :( |
18: How old was the oldest horse you've met?
Mid 20s?
19: Opinion on colorful tack? (like red or blue)
Saddle pads, polos, browbands? YES!

20: Have you ever tried horse treats? Hay?
Im sure as a kid. Afterall I basically lived at the barn with my best friend (whos parents owned it) from like 5-10 aka: when you do stupid stuff.
21: Have you ever felt like giving up on a horse?
More like realized he wasnt going to do what I wanted to do. He wasnt a bad horse at all just wasnt interested in playing the game of eventing. I have never wanted to give up on one due to naughtyness or anything (thankfully!)
22: Tell the story about the horse that you first felt "click" immediately with you (and if you can't remember, most recent)
I havent ever felt an instant thing but more like a bond overtime.
23: Ever ridden side-saddle? How was it?
No, not unless you count riding one sitting sideways while bareback, and never plan to.
24: Most interesting place you've ridden at
I rode Tolo across the highway and through a drive through ice cream place :)
25: What kind of horse do you like? (sport, stock, endurance, etc)
Sport horse for sure!
26: Do you feel like you have more patience with horses than people?
I actually dont have much patience but it all depends on the situation
27: Is the horse you ride very vocal?
No and I HATE horses that scream all the time. Like to the point that I would sell the most amazing horse ever if it screamed at shows/away from friends/pretty much any time.
28: Ever ridden in the sunset?
Yup
29: How do you like a horse's mane? (roached, pulled, long, etc)
It completely depends. I think Mystic would look awful with a short pulled mane but I think lots of horses look awful with a long mane. Basically any TB/sport horse I get its mane is pulled and short. But I thoroughly enjoy not having to pull Mystics!
30: What is your dream name for a horse?
Honestly have no idea. There are a ton of really cute names.
#1 cracks me up!!
