<p>[QUOTE=&quot;buyingtime777, post: 310144, member: 188&quot;]Every kid should have a horse. You learn a lot of responsibility. After years of hearing how bad I wanted a horse my dad relented when I was 12. It came down to a sweet little Appaloosa mare or a BIG Tennessee Walker with a gait so smooth you could sip hot coffee while riding him. Of course I went for the Tennessee Walker!</p><p><br /></p><p>He had apparently been out to pasture for a few years and forgotten most of his training and he firmly believed that a little girl was not going to tell him what to do. I learned to ride very well after I got a bit with a high curb and shanks about 7 inches long so I had some braking power. I rode him every day just to irritate him.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was never the fairy tale horse story I had envisioned but I have some hilarious stories about him getting creative to get me off his back and how vengeful the equine mind can be!!! Over the years we got used to each other but my mom, my brother, and the neighbor boys were terrified of him!!!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie58" alt=":joyful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
