If the spirit of me not having a horse to ride for a while…
If you could steal a horse from any of your friends or barnmates, which one would it be?
The obvious choice here for me would be Halo. I mean… he’s a total badass. He’s a lovely mover, a beast on XC, and a good showjumper. He’s big, he’s kind, and he’s gorgeous. I love Herrlerr. Who wouldn’t?
But he’s a big, strong, rangey horse, and I don’t think I’d ride him nearly as well or get the same results that Bobby does. I’m also 100% certain I’d get completely run away with on XC. He’s super fun, but he’s not the type of ride that I’m typically drawn to. Therefore, my answer is Violet. Definitely Violet.
She’s a young TB mare, only 15.1, quirky for sure, and just too adorable for words. Totally my type… I love mares, and obviously I like quirky. It would be easy to pass right by her in the barn, being plain brown and a bit dainty. But under saddle she’s ridiculously impressive – a lovely mover with a wicked good jump.
I’ve ridden her a couple times – there’s not a lot of horse underneath you, size wise, but she has a big stride and lots of power. She sure doesn’t know she’s little. She’s sensitive but brave and always ready to go go go. What’s not to love about a little fancy sportscar of a horse with tons of talent and plenty of try? She probably has way too much talent for me, but still…
Violet. Definitely Violet.

Violet looks totally awesome! I looked it up, and it seems that horse stealing is no longer a hanging offence, lucky you!

I can’t even. In addition to my endurance horse that I need to keep fit, I have a 5 year old and two soon to be 4 year olds. You are welcome to steal one of mine. Please.

There are really only like 2 horses that aren’t mine at my barn that aren’t retired, so I’d have to steal someone else’s horse. Maybe a fellow bloggers? That might make for a good blog hop…

Violet looks like an excellent choice! Maybe you can borrow her for a few weeks? I want to steal my trainer’s stallion. He’s not very big, and looks like a giant pony, but he can JUMP!
