How old was your first horse?

:p How old was the very first horse/pony you got?

I've never owned a horse (hopefully someday...), but the first horse I ever rode I was told was 28 years old.

I have never owned a horse either ( :( ) But multiple years in a row I went to Horse Camp and "my" horse, Blue was about 13 years old :)

edit...and I voted for the wrong option :o

Like the others, i've never had a horse, but i remember the first ever pony i rode. His name was Goldie, he was a 12hh palomino Welsh Mountain mix and was 15 years old. I was 4 years old when i started riding, and i got on very well with Goldie and he was always my favourite pony. I did pretty well with him too, when i was nearly 6 we were both jumping fences at just under a metre:eek:. But, being tall, i grew too big for him all too quickly and had to move onto larger ponies and horses. At eight, i was thrown badly by a pony (no, not the arab incident...lol:p ) and lost my confidence really badly and took a year off riding. I then went back, and Goldie was no longer there. He had been sold. I moved riding schools pretty soon after that, as that riding school had become rather dilapidated and it didn't feel right without Goldie there. I often wonder what happened to that lovely little pony......

Rio was 4 when I got him, Jerry had just turned 6 years old and Juno was rising 5. :)

I've never owned a horse either, My uncle had a horse that died at 32.

First horse that was every truly mine was an off the track 3 year old greenbroke Quarter horse, not the best horse for a 7 year old LOL, but I loved him and I was the only person he would listen to.

I've only had one horse before, she was a 12 year old arabian.

The horse that I sharboarded, cafed for, and took lesons on was 4-5 when I was riding him. Straight off the track :eek:

I have never owned one. But the first one I rode was... about 5.

I've never owned one (and probably never will!), but the first one I rode was around seventeen years old.
