Wednesday- Animal of the week!.....Horse

Horse!
Everybody has heard of a horse, they can range in sizes from 80 200 cm tall and even taller (or smaller) in so many different arrays of colours. Some of my favorites are dun, dapple grey, black, chestnut, bay and blue roan :) Horses can be used in many different styles and events like English and Western. In English, it is more formal and you would have events like dressage, cross country and show jumping, while in Western, you would have events like reining, barrel racing and cutting.
1#- horses can live up to their late 30's
2#- horses can sleep both lying down and standing up.
3#- if cut (lawnmower) grass is fed to a horse, it can be fatal
4# there are 3 'genders' of horses! Male and female and a castrated male is called a gelding.
                                                            5#- there are over 250 breeds of horses.






















Stay fluffy,
