Well, the first horse I ever rode not counting pony rides was a little roan Shetland gelding named Pumpkin. He was absolutely adorable, and I rode him at my schoolteachers house. She had four other horses, and I always thought they were huge. Nope. The largest was like 15.2?
The first horse I ever lessoned on at a riding school was a blue roan Shetland gelding named Macaroni. Roni was the sweetest little thing, and I'm sure he's doing awesome in retirement right now

I believe it was magic. She was so stubborn lol

The first horse I rode alone was named Storm, he was a beautiful bay quarter horse (I think). He was a gentle giant, I was around 6 or 7 when I would get on him and cruise around his owner property.
Lana (his owner) was a long time friend of my mom's and would let me come over and "ride"him. He was kind of like a babysitter really, careful when we walked around the hilly and rocky area.

First actual lesson horse was a mare named Donica. She was a thoroughbred mare deep chestnut in color. She was around 16hh, and one of the most stubborn horses I've rode, and also one of the sweetest. But she taught be how to stick like glue, and how to control where I went and how fast. I learned my flatwork and how to jump on that mare.
Think I was around 8 when I started riding her. But sadly she passed away at 28 or close to that a few years ago.

Her name is Pine, she was my first lesson horse, she's sadly now retired

The first horse I ever rode was named Oley he is so sweet if he felt you were not balanced or about to fall he will slow down and wait until you were sitting better in the saddle . Now he is so old and lame but still going. He is a huge bay quarter horse so cute

A little Shetland named Wiley was the first I remember at my old horse camp.

A sassy black and white Paint gelding named Mourning Ash

The first horse I rode was a little dapple gray pony by the name of Ladybug. She was such a sweet old mare!

The first horse I ever rode was a palomino paint named Sunny. I believe she was a AQH. She had blue eyes, and being the little 5-7 year old, I was terrified I had never seen a horse with blue eyes and was only used to ones with brown ones

I rode a chesnut TB- Clydesdale cross named Garfield for my first ride. They were doing an assessment for a 5 year old me on a 17 hand mammoth

I think the first horse I ever rode was a Tennessee Walking Horse gelding named Sunny.

I didn't really ride but my parents put me on this old black Shire called King to see what I'd do. I recall having a one-sided conversation with King about how my day was going so far. Didn't go very well.

Hmm. Let me try to remember... Well, it's actually easy to remember. I have never ridden a horse before in my whole life.

His name was Harley. He was a darling, bomb proof QH.

Dakota, mustang.

Sweet little guy. RIP

I spent about half of my life with horses, I still remember the horses, like Wilson and Camen were Quarter Horses, I think Camen had a little Thoroughbred in him, but I don't know But I rode a couple of horses in my life, last time I ever rode a horse was in 2016 and I remember riding one named Toad, but the one I remember the most, the one I rode all the time with my sister, his name is Pencil, but we called him Coco and he was a pony.

Silver! He was a very cheeky 11hh Welshie. I only rode him a few times but will always remember him.

Pirate, he was a bay and white paint horse I was four years old and rode him as part of fine motor skill therapy.

Blueboy, an Icelandic pony!

her name was Roxie but now I can't ride horses

I was about 2-3 and my dad just bought a new purebred arabian horse gelding, thing is he was 4 and my dad still put me on him!!!
But my dad rode with me because of his age today we still own him along with a purebred arabian mare and a pony with a black and a blue eye who is for sale

Doly, the paint mare. She was pretty evil

It's okay, you're not alone! I've never even ridden or even met a horse before! I'm sure you'll get the chance to soon. I probably never will.

Joe but saddly was pu tdown a year ago at the age of 37

Stormy, he was bad but after his name was changed to sunshine he acted better. �
