Re: [RC] Horse question... (really long) - Barbara McCrary
Arab horses are better watchdogs
than dogs! Ours (being taller than dogs) spot anything unusual as far away
as they can see, and when they all go ears up and forward in the same direction,
I know to look for something unusual...a coyote sitting on the hillside 1/4 mile
away, hikers passing through the ranch at a similar distance,
etc.

Beautiful Trail in the World"
I've
noticed that my Arab mare, Cissie, notices anything moving off in the
distance, cars, boats on the lake, other horses, etc., when the horses riding
with us don't pay any attention to it. A couple of the trails we ride
give a view of a road in the distance and she always stares at any cars
moving along it.
