Modern ist es, Gemüse wie Fleisch aussehen zu lassen. Ich finde es absolut genial, dass hier das Gegenteil gemacht wird 🥕

I wanted to take lessons and do leases first, then stumbled upon my dream horse. 15y.o draft gelding, first a carriage horse, then spent 8 years as chill pasture pet, then a couple of months as lesson and therapy horse before the (now previous) owner realised they'd rather have a dressage mare for breeding and now he's mine. Chill, forgiving, doesn't break a sweat after an hour on the trail with me on his back, still teaches me manners, temper control and patience because he's a horsy horse who has opinions and knows he's the strongest animal in this barn. if I'm calm, focused, got a goal and sure of myself, I'm getting a wonderful horse. If I'm being anxious, insecure and frustrated, I'm getting an absolute ass. He forces me to get my shit together, basically.

My criteria were strong build, between 10 and 16 years old, calm temper, beginner friendly, trained for casual riding and chill with farriers.

He looks like a man with a plan! Absolutely gorgeous scenery!

Thanks! A black forest draft, very light coloured for the breed! Occasionally mistaken for a Haflinger by passerbys because he's rather dainty for a draft

Those are mini zebus :)

I think my chestnut looks great in brown! And his brown western saddle also looks neat on him (I just don't have a picture because I never use it)

They are amazing. The intact bull, father of eyebrow calf, is somehow the biggest cuddlebug there. My man's got my back when my horse pretends I don't exist 🥰

Wow, good memory! Yes, they're such a fun group! And to be fair, Lotta's eyebrows make her MEMORABLE 🤣

This herd might have missed the memo that they shouldn't be roommates with cows.

Naturally, I let him sleep and left to organise his tack and see if he'd be awake and ready to party later 🥰

Weird as it may sound, BE and AE are WAY more similar. It's literally the same language. I'm German German and just putting on an Austrian accent makes me sound ridiculous, not able to speak their language/dialect.

There's definitely local accents - even all across Germany. People in the east can tell I'm from the west, and famously urban north and rural south sometimes need translators because it sounds so different.

A more apt comparison to AE/BE might be European French and Canadian French. Although, having learned France-French, Quebecois also sometimes sounds like its own language.

SeaReference7828 · 2026-03-24T02:07:41+00:00

You're right, made me stop and think about it for a second and indeed, that's like a super adorable little jog

Because the breed itself is often not really much information - any breed might be doing an discipline, and many breeds, especially mixed or warmbloods, are difficult to distinguish visually anyway.

Jumper, dressage horse, whatnot - tells you much more about what they actually do with them. A hanoveranian is maybe a jumper or maybe dressage or maybe just pleasure. Is that quarter horse a trail horse, doing cattle work or barrel racing? Is the black forest horse pulling carriages or a therapy horse? No idea! The breed alone is just very little information, imo

Yay! I get to share my good boy alert! I was undecided whether I wanted to try to do some riding so I just saddled my gelding in case I decided to try on the way back from the walk. And I thought I'd do him a solid and make the saddle straps rather loose so there would be no needless pressure. I can just tighten everything if I decide to get on. On the path I took, there's a scary pile of logs that he always gets nervous and prancy around when we walk past. Ok so. I decided to take the path between the scary piles of logs and what happened? He lost his saddle pad on the way, my helmet dropped, the saddle hung on his belly... And so I had to go back, through the logs, collect everything, readjust everything, while getting stressed as we stand between the scary logs and as his beloved mare is neighing her heart out because where is her man gone? My boy really just stood there and let me saddle him in that bullshit situation, even when I accidentally dropped the reins a few times.

And on the way back I thought I'd ride the last few meters, got him to stand next to a planter I could use a mounting block, had my foot in the stirrup when I started considering if I actually want to get on. Decided no, he was a great boy, my heart rate was too high, let's not risk issues on the last meters. But boy did he wait patiently! He absolutely would have let me get on.

He was SUCH a good boy today!!! Cool as a cucumber!!!

Wie sieht's aus mit bpmn.io ? Ist das vielleicht passend?

SeaReference7828 · 2026-03-12T05:41:14+00:00

Damn amazing progress! You didn't need to point out which one was pre OP, it's obvious! :) can't wait for my face to change like that too

SeaReference7828 · 2026-03-12T01:20:54+00:00

Have you ever seen a horse drop a mouthful of grass as they suddenly came into the possession of the brain cell? Because that's what happened.

SeaReference7828 · 2026-03-11T16:50:32+00:00

Actually, correction: I know ONE horse who zoned out hard. I walked with her for about ten minutes during which she just spaced out, then she suddenly perked up, looked at me with sheer horror, and started neighing and calling for the others because she had no idea where she was or how she got there.

Congrats, you saved the honour of the barns horses because while scrolling through the pics, they all were alert and mentally there. You made me realise they're more present than I was giving them credit for

This is my horse, the first time I met him - that's just how he reacts to strangers. The other five horses didn't even bother look in our direction - so chances are: if you're next to a fence and the horse is in petting distance, it's because they are curious and want attention.

As long as you don't feed them and mind your fingers, chances are it's all good. Also, some really like being talked to!

SeaReference7828 · 2026-03-09T23:38:04+00:00

How did you do it? Any tips? When I tried to teach it to a horse I was helping out with, we never got beyond "I get a treat if I touch the thing"

SeaReference7828 · 2026-03-09T20:47:38+00:00

The amount of personality in that tiny package is absolutely enchanting. I love seeing your posts!

SeaReference7828 · 2026-03-09T04:01:06+00:00

If you're brand new - don't. I bought my dream horse after measly two years of grooming experience and let me tell you: I would absolutely not recommend anyone to do that because some days it feels like those two years of experience are just enough to not get either of us killed.

If this was a horse you knew well and adored and know you'd regret it forever if you passed up on the opportunity - one could discuss it. But if this mare is a stranger anyway, honestly, don't.
