Lol. I came to say the same thing. Like- “low maintenance” uh huh. “Only needs grass” uh huh. Good for health… yeah. On of the top causes of traumatic brain injury, one of the most dangerous sports in modern times and history, and beyond your brain, well… before horseback riding Christopher Reeves couldn’t do a 10 minute mile but after horseback riding he easily do a mile in under 10 minutes so long as it was downhill, so I guess there is that. There are potential health benefits to riding appropriately, but there are also health risks beyond injury- muscular skeletal and other things or increased risks out of saddle for lower back issues and such.
Loyal? Pffft. Some cats are loyal but cats are not considered loyal animals.
Horses have good memory overall for certain things but they aren’t generally loyal. They may like some people or animals more or less than others but it wouldn’t be very practical to but and sell and rent and lend and lease horses if they generally formed..
.. these intense young girl novel “special bonds” with a single person or animal. Horses tend to be adaptable in that way. They often dislike change or get confused or insecure around the unfamiliar but they generally adapt. So… I could go on, but indeed- written by someone with cowboy fantasies who likely hasn’t owned or perhaps even touched a horse before.
Colic my bru
