Favorite breed of horse?

I'm not a horse person but have always heard good things about a Morgan.

I've always been partial to mules, particularly draft mules.

One of our neighbors has mules. He and his Wife ride them on the roadways up to the local country store about a mile away. He used to be a horse farrier until he eyesight got worse. They love their mules.

When I was growing up on my Father's farm, my favorite horse was a Palomino named "Peanut".

if i was pulling a plow or something that required grunt.. I'd like my mule.. as a weed puller though.. mine lacks some social skills.

I love the look of a paint, I feel the same about big giant drafts also...

But I'm DEEP in what TexasJohn said "...then you get to do fencing, water, build shed and cover, get tack, build tack shed, get horse trailer, get vehicle to pull trailer, change insurance, build more sheds, buy feed, buy hay, build more sheds, start rodent control program, visit vet regularly, then you can't leave home because need to feed and water horse, buy inclement weather clothing so you can take care of horse in any weather, purchase fly and parasite control supplies, visit doctor because you got bit, kicked or fell off...there's more..."

So my opinion is UNQUALIFIED! :laughing:

My favorite kind of horse would be one with a seat belt to keep me on.
