You might be a horse person if ...

[michickenwrangler]

You don't let your child eat carrot sticks for lunch because THOSE are for the horse

When people ride in your vehicle, you have to move saddle pads, bridle bags, Easy boots and Dover catalogs out of the way so they can sit down

The hoof pick mentioned on the first post is STILL on the kitchen table

You tell the grocery cart "whoa" when you stop it.

Non-horsey friends and relatives have absolutely no desire to watch horse related movies with you.

You just brought a horse blanket in to put on the kitchen table to mend it, then it's going in the washing machine. And the smell others would complain about I'm loving.

You tell everything not stopping to 'whoa', like when your truck is skidding on bad winter roads. Or of your slipping sideways you stay 'easy, steady' in a reassuring voice to get it straight again.

You have no non-horsey friends, they gave up on you years ago.

You wear all your clothes to the barn...it doesnt matter what it is.

Hay in your hair/ down your bra (cause you can never get it out) is perfectly normal.

Spurs and whips do not mean anything dirty to you.

Mucking stalls is a great excuse to get out of housework

You can share apples with your horses and not be grossed out

When people complain about injuries you can tell them at least 5 stories that are worse

You know what colic, bot flies, foundering, mud fever, and melanoma are and you know how to treat most of them

You have at least 8 buckets all with a different purpose

Your horse gets more shoes than you

You have ridden in pjs

You stay up all night with your horses when they are sick

You accessorize your hairstyle with pieces of hay.

You examine every piece of rope or twine for its halter potential.

Your favorite outfit is made of leather and includes whips and spurs.

You spend more time at the feed store than the grocery store.

you ask for things like lead ropes, hoof picks, and boots (no not for you) for your birthday

You need to explain to your friends why you ride your bike with your heels down


The whistle you use for your horses to come in from the back pasture ~ 125 acres ~ also works on your husband, kid, dogs, chickens and even inlaws...... (I about died the first time it worked on them) ~ AkTomboy

You'd rather spend 2 hours buying horsey bits than in a boring supermarket for human bits.

You will spend 10 minutes in the shower for yourself and spend two hours plus grooming your horses purely for pleasure.

The German Shepherd Dogs come in muddy and you complain about the mess BUT after the horses roll in mud it is great therapy to clean them up and detangle their mane's and tails!

Horse poo smells normal - other animal poo smell awful!

Love my horses and donkeys

When riding, or driving, in cars, trucks, or carnival rides, you instinctively shift your weight with the movement and manage to be the only one who doesn't spill their coffee on a bumpy road.

When you first wake up, you try to brush your hair with a horse brush.

You might be a horse person if... you find this funny or are pretty sure a trainer has had these thought about your horse at some point. I actually got this off of one of my trainers facebook.

I have 2 bales of hay in the back seat of my car because they ate the round bale and I can't go get another till Sunday.

I judge a car by how much horse feed I can pack in it. Dodge Caliber handles 1,000 pounds.

I have a feed bucket in the car.

I love shoveling horse poop-compost for the garden!

When you have hay in every nook and crany along with the ceiling of your car and hubby is ashamed to use it !

My car aka the feed wagon!

Horse poop smells good !

Hay smells good !

The Barn even smells good !

Nothing more wonderful than a horses breath !

Every pair of shoes and boots you own have manure on them !

Your favorite way to spend Mothers day is giving your sweet horses a bath!

You ask for a wheelbarrow for Christmas!

People ask you in the grocery store if you have horses and you have to ask- Is it how I'm dressed or how I SMELL?

You watch the Superbowl for the Budweiser commercials, and then you cry in front of your boyfriends buddies!

The only reason you have a second job is to pay for hay!

You grow 1000 carrots in your garden, and half of them are for your horses!

You try to merge your car by leg-yielding!

You constantly 'kiss' to your children to get them moving!

You have to keep your Dad on your side so you can borrow the truck for hay, hauling horses, etc.

You not only know how to drive a tractor, you can fix one too!
