American Quarter Horse

Title: “Taming The Star Runner” The title makes me wonder what kind of horse The Star Runner was. It sparks my interest and makes me also wonder how he tamed the Star Runner. The title fits well with the book because in the book the main character was untamable like the Star Runner. I was excited to read another S.E. Hinton book. There were no pictures in this book. Author: The author of Taming The Star Runner is S.E. Hinton. I have read two other books that she wrote, the first being the…

Equine Scientist A career that I believe to be interesting would be being an Equine Scientist. If you like horses this is the job for you.

There are many colleges to go to, one of the…

My horse, Bogi has always been a good mount and he knew the trail, and he knew it was time to go. “ Something's wrong with you ” I said weary. My heart was now pounding. The wind was howling gently at first and soon after it sounded…

little girl grows up loving horses, but most outgrow that desire. I never did. When I was young, I was scared of them because the first horse I fed a carrot to looked as though he could eat me. I was 4 years old and also the size of his head. For the longest time, I wished to ride and train horses even though I did not know a single thing about doing that; today, I teach other people more about how horses work within their herd and how humans can better work with their horse.

gods. If Socrates doesn’t believe in any gods, then he cannot believe the god that is his own. Therefore I recognize that Meletus accusation has no meaning. Also, Socrates gives us a question: “Did ever any man believe in horsemanship, and not in horses? or in flute-playing, and not in flute-players (Plato, Apology, p.241)?” I think that means what he believes in not on any specific god but on the power of gods (Rubenfeld, CAL 105N, 10/07/15). Socrates also says that: “For this is the command…
