Smudge is the best horse ever! - 2010-08-04
Are you jealous that I have an Arabian? I have a Black one. He is a show horse, and no other horse is better then my Smudge.

    Why would anyone be jealous of you? I have a white one so there....

    I wouldn't own an Arabian if you gave one to me, for nothing. They are hot and temperamental, and sometimes unpredictable. I hate what breeders are doing to them.... those awful swan necks.
  • Arabians ROCK!!!!!!!!!! - 2011-07-02
    Arabs are not temermental!!!!! Their REALLY sweet!!!!

    Not owning an Arabian is not knowing what excellence really is in a horse. They are not tempermental, unpredictable maybe (learn more about your horse and that can be managed), but they are wonderful!

    No, I am not jealous of your arabian. I got one for free because a friend's grandmother couldn't afford him and I'm kind of sorry. He's sweet and all but he is always psyching himself out and panicking. Oh, and he will NOT stop pulling back while tied. I can't tie him.

    I am a little jealous that you have a amazing horse. I have always wanted a horse and I still don't have one. I am single though so you think me and you could date babe.

I own a Polish Arabian and he is now white. He is 13 years old and I have owned him since he was 5 years old and only 90 days into training. I have been around horses all my life. After getting my daughters old enough, I was finally able to start riding again in my forties. Faress is the arabians name, yes in the beginning I hit the ground a lot and often. Never was I thrown, but he did spook a lot. Took me awhile to get my seat back since we were learning dressage together. I can only tell you that the bond we share is like no other. He is the smartest horse I have ever owned. He can learn a trick in one day. He and I sleep together in his stall. He is loyal like no other horse. So all of you who do not like Arabians probably couldn't ride one because they are not for the green rider. Nor the chicken hearted. You treat them well and with kindness, they will love you forever. I also own a Warmblood. He is beautiful and big and great at dressage and I love him. I can only say the Arab is the most loving horse I have ever owned. When you lie down in his stall on a blanket and you wake up and he is lying next to you, you know this is the greatest bond ever.

I'm scared! I rescued an arab stallion, then let him gain back some weight then gelded him. He is very nice looking, but sad what he went though. Now he's with a friend, for finishing, but they saw him head over heals in the arena, all four feet in the air, and now he's having a hard time with his rear end, and is really sore. Will he get over it?

    I would find a equine chiropractor and homeopathic vet in your area. He might have pinched something or have something out of whack. The homeopathic vet in our area treated my daughters Arabian and he is doing so much better. He is 25 and a beauty. Good luck with him...

    I am a first time arabian owner this year. I own three paints. So for me to have an arabian added to my group of paints was weird. She's so lil but pretty and well shaped, shines like no other, but then is with three fat but well built paints. Makes her look like shes a colt. But I love her, I am recently training her under saddle, she's coming along awesome. But it's summer time, and I have lots of grass padducks, and she's fed hay twice a day and cup of 12% oats a day and it's showing bones? What can I do?

    I have a grey horse, a hybrid between the black one and white one. It is very ugly but I love it. It keeps asking to go back to Arabia even though I tell it that it no longer exists! Thanks for sharing your news about your horse.

    I have a 13 yr old gelding that is such a gentleman...I love him :) He is so smart it is scary sometimes. It just amazes me how intelligent, gentle, and quickly learned he is. Mine is also a gray, flea speck and I think he is beautiful!

We just got a 20 year old arabian and she looks horrible. She is very thin. She has patches of hair missing but I am not sure if my other horse is pulling it out. How can I put weight on her quickly and are there any problems with arabians that I should be looking for?

    Read the Arabian Horse Article attached as that might help. Don't worry about puting weight on "QUICKLY" Be concrned that she is getting a good diet and is able to eat freely as needed. She will achieve her normal weight. Did she have the patches of hair missing when you got her? If you feel the other horse might be pulling it out, can they be separated?
