Welcome
to our webpage about
horses!
|
We are third
grade students who want to share our love of horses
with you. Although we don't own our own horses, we
have taken riding lessons, collect horse figures
and love to read about them. Some of our favorite
horse breeds are miniature, quarter and
paint.
|
Miniature
horses are smaller than regular horses.
They can't be bigger then 34 inches at the
withers. Withers is a name for the horses
shoulders.

We would like to thank Annie W. for the
use of the picture of her horse, Little
Lady. You can see more pictures of Little
Lady at Annie's
Web Page.

Paints (or
pintos) have
special
coloring.
During the
days of the Old West, Paints were one of the most
popular horses with both cowboys and Native
Americans.
Do you know why
some horses are called Quarter
Horses?
