How do I know what breed of horse is right for me?
We are looking to buy land in the future and I will be purchasing two horses. I dont think I could handle breaking a horse. I have some experience but not years and years. I only want them for pleasure horses, no working. I would also like them to be sociable with other horses. Any suggestions?
You should look into training than a breed. & For the person who said not Morgans is uneducated in the breed. My mother has had Morgan horses over 55yrs. Me & my 4 sisiters & 2 brothers all learned on them. I give riding lesson to 5yrs to 11 yrs old kids. All on Morgan horses!!!! You can find them from 800.00$ and up. They are very hardy!! I have 151 in WY. They all work the place. They are all barefoot & I don't use blankets. They are very sweet, loyal & hard working!! They are awsome of trail riding. Truly a all around breed. They are very rewarding to own!!! Just the first thing you should look for is training.
