Answers:
safe sound and sane. Forget breed - there's good and bad in all breeds. A quarter horse is no more gentle than a morgan or appaloosa solely based on breed. There's many quarter horses NOT suitable for beginners. Look for one that you get along with. Don't worry too much on color, breed etc unless you're looking at showing. What kind of saddle depends on what you're going to do. Many like the Western saddles - but if you're doing an English discipline that's out. Trail riding you could also use an Australian saddle - which I really like but they sit a little different than others.
If you are riding western and just for fun and trail riding, I suggest a Wintec synthetic saddle. They are quite durable and light.
For your height, I'd not consider a pony per se. Get a good sized well trained quarter horse, between 15 1/2-16 hands tall, and a western saddle. If you don't know how to ride, I'd invest in lessons. Make sure you have the facilities to keep your horse and know how to properly take care on him. There is more to maintenance than just feeding, haying and riding. You might have to consider expense also.
weight and height do not matter!! But if you are looking for a good gentle breed then I would choose a Quarter Horse. They are fairly big in size and very loving. There are a lot of life stock auctions that you can pick them up quite inexpensive. But if you have no experience, then i suggest you take someone who knows a little.
I suggest if you want a pony a quarter pony and if you wasnt a horse then a Morgan or a
quarter horse. but it depends if you ride western
or english. western a quarter horse but either one will still do you good well at least it worked for me.
well if your looking for a good english-riding horse, i suggest a good quarter horse. i lease an polish arabian, that is not high-strung, so also consider a 13-18 year old polish arabian. they are good horses and very beautiful horses. i dont know about a pony for an older person. hope you find a good horse.
Wictec saddles last longer, are cheaper, and lighter.
well for your height i would get a horse. also to know what kind of horse and saddle to get you have to know what kind of riding you want to do. english or western. then theres lotz to choose from. jumping,dressage, roping, cattle,crosscountry. and all of those have different kinds of saddles.
I think, that if you do not have any idea to the answer to your question, then you should not get yourself a horse. They are a lot of responsibility and if you don't know what you are doing, you could easily get hurt. I would strongly suggest taking riding lessons for at least a year before considering buying a horse.
well wut do u want the horse to look like and ud probaly go for a western saddle
The saddle will depend on the animal you are saddling. Although your size is important, it is more important to make sure that the saddle fits the animal properly. Have someone who is versed in this matter help you with the specifics.
search the web maybe you will be able to find the best answers there!
