Soldier

About Me

Active within 1490 Days

I am from Meadville, PA and I've been a Club Horse member for 4 years, 1 month and 23 days

Nicknames: His registered name is Brother Possum. We also call him Solja Boy. His theme song is Solja Boy, but with different words...

Age: 20 years old

Gender: Gelding

Breed: Quarter Horse

Height: 15.2h

Color: Bay

Type of Riding: We do Western riding, no English. We mostly do trail riding and at-home activities. Sometimes, there are small competitions that we go to.

My Horse's Achievements: I taught him (using clicker training) how to pick up things, and hand them to me. We also got 6th place in a Pleasure Competition.

My Horse's Favorite Treat: His favorite treat is a special thing that he only gets on his birthday and Christmas. It consists of oats, molasses, grain, apples, carrots, and a few of some brand-name treats for good measure.

My Horse's Favorite Things To Do: He loves getting treats he also loves a nice, easy lope. That would probably be his favorite gait. He seems to like baths... but not like total LOVE.

Pet Peeves: When we make him go somewhere he does not wish to go. (he acts like he's dying) or when he believes that he deserves a treat, and I don't.

My Horse's motto: His theme song:

Soldier Boy, he thinks he's old!
He can't crank that cause he's old!
He can't crank that soldier boy..... oh! And so on.

How We Met

Well, we had a horse trainer/dealer be on the lookout for a good horse. Unfortunately, we forgot to mention any colors. So he came up with the ugliest, most beaten-up looking horse on this earth. He hadn't been abused by humans- but by his stable buddy. We connected at first sight, I swear. After a few rides, I was determind to get this horse. So, after some agreements, we settled on a price, and he was mine. But of course, we bought his abusive stable buddy too..

HELP! I would like to just say that sierra is in a BAD condition right now! If you would like to here what has happend. Please listen... Sierra was running down our lane with all the other horses we have and two pitbulls came out of the bushes and was chacing them all. Well of course the horses freaked and tryed to get away, but Sierra went threw the bobwire fence. she now has 27 stitches on her chest and is in critical condition. She has to stay over night and tomorrow i can bring her home. The vet said that I cant ride her for about 4 weeks to 6 weeks. So please vote for Sierra. She needs votes for this. Maybe she can be the horse of the day. That would not just make my day good but hers too! so please VOTE! Thanks Taylor ps: Tell everyone else to help vote for Sierra! Come visit me, Sierra.	05/07/2009 03:46.44 PM	Report This Comment
