Hi,
My name is Amber and I need help with choosing a type of horse. What would do you think the best?

Depends on you height weight, level of experience, and what you want to do with it, in the sense of competing ect. Plus personal preference.

Well I am 5'0 tall 115 Pounds and I like the color Bay.

I think you should choose a horse who is not enough strong to throw you. Horse should be peaceful because he may heart you if he anger. I have visited various horse related directories directoryhorses.com to know the behavior of horses. They are very strong and powerful enough to heart you easily.

Buying a horse is not like buying a car!

You have to decide where you will keep it, how, and what for as well as why. Forget the colour! that will bias you, instead ask about age, temperament and vices, decide what you need the horse for then start by asking an experienced friend to help you look. Go through the ads and cross out any that don't match, visit the ones that do and make sure you go more than once, always make sure the owner rides the horse first too, then get a vets advice.

i think you need to do some research...

Yes you are right she has to research about it. This will give her better suggestion about the selection of horse. I have already refer her directoryhorses.com, if any body has another website please refer her.

Right go to horseandhound.co.uk/forum

they'll sort you out.

Have you considered everything?

Ages?
Breed/size/weight of the horse?
What you'll keep him/her for?
Vices?
Tack?


It's not buying a bike darling, colour should be LAST on your options...

omg we arent choosing a new car here? you need to get out there and find horses you like, not come on forums and ask what people suggest..
