what are the pros and cons of riding a horse?

February 25th, 2010

i’d like to learn horse riding but my parents totally disagree
ive gone on trails as a group and walking is ssooooo boring, at the end everone was uncomfortable and complaining but i loved it. i love animals and my mum hates animals

pros:
they are fun
give you something to do
excersize
they are like your best friend, mine is as close as my dog
they are loving and dont care what you looked like that day, or how bad your day was, they just want to have fun with you
riding them is fun
…….. endless possiblites

cons
they are smelly
take a lot of time
take a lot of $

owning a horse is soo fun! but if your just starting it i recommend a partial lease (you get to ride a horse for 2 days a week for a monthly fee, usually boarding is exclusive and they live at a barn most of the time) or helping at a organization, or taking lessons!
Good Luck! Enjoy :)

    There aren’t really pros and cons for horse riding some people enjoy it some people hate it.

    However if you enjoy it then it can be very therapeutic to ride a horse it is also exercise as you use allot of muscles.

    On the other hand it can get pretty uncomfortable after a while particularly if the horse has a bouncy gait or if your equipment does not fit properly.

    If you want to learn how to ride then it’s your choice you shouldn’t let your parents decide your life. Perhaps you should just tell them you want to learn how to ride or when on a trail [assuming you ride a horse] try and get your parents to see that they are not horrible, dangerous creatures.
