Arabian Horses............? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=aTwDdX0RD-Q Ok, first of all, i know im not a great rider/jumper, i have been around horses all my life (im 16), only hacked out and stuff until i really started riding in Feb 2008 *ish*, but only recently in mid 08 started jumping.......anyway....more to the point, do all Arabians do this when jumping?...90% of the time he jumps more than 1/4 than he has to! Thanks x (& I've never had jumping lessons, so please dont pick up on the jumping!) Thanks "LopeSlow" XD He is 19!!! (20 in Feb) He hasnt done much jumping in the 14 years weve had him =) But the vet did say back in 1994 "Get rid of this Horse he will kill you one day"!! He is great with children, a 6 year old was riding him bareback not so long ago... & To the first answer, it's not a gallop, and cant you read? I said not to comments about the jumping!!!

What is it people don't like about Arabian horses? They are the only breed of horse I will ever own, they've always been very personable, and I've never had a problem. Other horses are just boring. Do people not like Arabians because the people are not talented enough to handle them? And don't tell me they aren't useful for anything but endurance because I've had an Arabian that could out jump my sisters Swedish warmblood and scored higher points in dressage then Hanoverians. I didn't mean people who would rather ride other horses are untalented I'm saying the people who think your average well bred Arabian is flighty and crazy has not been exposed to enough horses to realize there are bad apples in every breed. I shouldn't have used untalented...oops! I didn't think this would get such a huge response!
