Do you recomend any certain breeds??

The animal gurl · 02-23-03

Well I really want a horse and I know how to care and feed and do everything!!! And since it would be my first horse it would have to have a good tempermant. Since I am only 11 it would have to be easy to handle too. So does anyone recomend any breeds??? PLease that would be a great help if I can convince my parents.

Thanks,
Gianna

I heard that both throughbreds and arabians are too lively and active for inexperienced horse owner, even if you know how to take care of horses, not necesarilly means u know how to handle them, besides those breeds need special care, unlike some other ussual kind. I would go with cob or appalosa, theyre great all-rounders and very calm too. But there are plenty of other breeds to go with, you might wanna talk to someone whos a horse expert.

Good Luck!
