She's lost a lot of weight this winter, which means she will be getting a weight gain supplement and I'll be bringing more bananas.

She was really excited to see me today and instead of letting me brush her, she would let me do a couple of brushes, then would trot away and give me a mischievous side eye.

I finally got to brush her when I took her into the grass to graze.

She looks like she’s smiling and pleased to see you:)

She rushed over to me when I showed up today and immediately demanded head pets and attention.

I'm short, so his wideness can make my hips sore. He also has a very bouncy gait. He is the sweetest boi. He can get bitey sometimes, but he'll stop if you scold him. He's a gentle giant tbh.

Sorry for the stupid question.

I'm not a horse person, but I always loved those belgian horses, tha big ones for heavy duties. I noticed they got some attentions on YT recently, and I started to wonder why they aren't popular for riding.

Of course they're slower I guess, but maybe not all the person would cares about riding fast. Are they difficult to ride maybe?

I ride a Belgian cross a lot and he is really wide and not the comfiest to ride. He also isn't that fast, so he'd do poorly in competitions.

What makes him not comfy? How os the character of that horse?

And yes, I don't believe anybody could compete with those horses! They're made for work.

But if you look at horses like people look at dogs, so in a way totally disconnected from their selection, I guess many would like to have a huge Belgian or Romanian, cause they look great and many doesn't care to compete in anything, they just want a bulky lovely chunk of animal to hug, love and spoil.
