haha brilliant, how old WAS she?! lol
My heart horse was a bay, purebred Arabian gelding.
I had him in the crossties grooming him one day, when another boarder's BF (I don't board anymore) came wandering up and asked what he was.
When I told him Arabian, he said, "An Arabian, huh? When is he going to turn white?"
I told him, "He won't gray out, he's a bay and will stay this color."
He said, "Well, then he can't be a real Arabian, 'cause all of them turn white!"
I gave him a strange look and told him, "No, Arabians aren't all gray. They really do come in different colors."
Dipstick continued to insist that I couldn't possibly have a 'real' (purebred) Arabian, 'cause he'd read somewhere that all of them turned white, and I must have gotten ripped off.
At that point I just gave him a, 'You're a total dumbass and I'm done with this conversation' look, unhooked my horse, and walked away shaking my head.
haha what?! never heard of that... :P
Why am I the only freak here who finds the way you worded this amusing? :twisted:
Mine is making fun of my own kid, big meany-me. When we went to meet Misty, the pony I eventually bought for him, her previous owner (a 9 year old girl) told my then 5 year old son that Misty "walks right through water."
My son misunderstood her and told everyone that would listen for the next three months that his new pony "walks on water" :lol:
haha this made me laugh!
