Your biggest horse fear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dakota's_sable · 04-19-2005, 06:09 PM

Mine would be rearing and flipping over on me, the horse just falling on me, or dragging me with my foot in the stirrup.

Aside from riding, my biggest fear is my horse getting really, really sick or dying.

My worst fear has already happened!! It was to lose a horse tragically, not something I wish to go through again, don't know if I could handle it again.

i dont have any except for my horse, if he is in pain when he dies, but other then that if the Lord wants me and my horse to drown we will drown. thats the way it goes!

I'm afraid of having another jumping accident and ending up paralzed or worse. I still jump everytime I ride though. lol. Go figure. lol.

My biggest fear is being on a horse when they rear and go over backwards and i also fear that my horse or the horse i am riding starts bucking and i fall off and land under his/her hooves while they are still bucking.

Well since I have had many of these "personal injury" things happen to me already; luckily without any serious injuries (not even 1 broken bone).

I guess the one I REAAAALLLY wouldn't want to have happen again would be a horse being in a lope, and then tripping/falling, and rolling over me. Picture a horse doing a running somersault and you being under them.

When it happened before I managed to jump out of the saddle, and land clear enough that only his hips landed on my legs (again no serious injuries luckily).

Something tells me there should be a large piece of wood I should be knocking on vigorously now!!!
