There is a say: "Beauty, your name is HORSE"!

Thank you, Carmen, for this thread. The video is breathtaking.

Mudra, that picture of the white horse you have posted made my day this morning. Ubelivable beauty. Thanks Creator for this!

Love

Why is a stallion called an 'entire'

Answer, a stallion is 'entirely male'. They have no female attributes as other animals do. eg teats

Well now, according to my "The Ultimate Encyclopedia of Horse Breeds" it looks like a Asiatic Wild Horse or Przewalski Horse from the Gobi Desert region.

Cheers

Gio... that horse looks like a Zebra that lost its stripes, or they just haven't been painted on yet.

That' just an Italian draft horse

We farriers used to joke, "What do you do when a Clydesdale wants to put his hoof down?"

"You let him"

I trimmed a Clydesdale once, never want to shoe one!

The Argentinians like Criollo horses. This looks like a rather unappealing one. "The breed dates back to a 1535 shipment of 100 Pure Bred Spaniards - Andalusian stallions coming from Cadiz, Spain, to the Rio de la Plata imported by Buenos Aires founder, Pedro de Mendoza." Wikipedia info

The second looks like a Quarter Horse, great for cutting and barrel racing.

Wow. Check this. I was perusing horseys to post and searched dun (fer sumpin diff'ent): Zebra-Striped Dun



All of these are considered "primitive" markings because dun is the color seen in early cave paintings of horses, in Przewalski's horse (an Asian wild horse), and in many American mustangs. Obvious zebra stripes on the legs are less common but also go along with the "primitive" dun gene.

Thanks, the pics on here are great and I knew people would have horse stories!. Oliver, the story of the little horse, Seabiscuit, inspired the whole nation at the time he was racing! A great movie!

This little mare Blue Hors Matine, wowed the crowd with her performance. Incredibly, she did not win this competition, the judges marked her down cos she 'swished' her tail! I posted this ages ago but I think she deserves another outing!
