Once I climbed back up on my horse, I rode up to my grandpa Jim, who was waiting for me on his horse. My grandfather squinted his…

Furthermore, no one will hold these people and concepts accountable for their actions. This…

The Impact of the Horse When the domestication of animals originated, the main purpose was food production. With an ever changing world environment, having a herd could be the difference between life and death. As time passed, however, the human species began to realize the folly in their ways. Not only could animals be raised for food, they could be raised for other useful byproducts: milk, clothes, and many other products necessary to life. Inevitably, the need for animals that were more…

The Stolen Horse It was a nice sunny day in July. Isabella was practising riding her horse, Festia. Festia was an adorable, clever, charming, and lovely horse.

Isabella was a talented horse rider, and she wanted to win the race very much. “Let’s go, Festia! The race is next week, so we have to practise!” shouted…

It all started when I was a little girl, I had always wanted a horse. So when I was 8 I started to take lessons but that only lasted for a few years, hard times hit and I wasn’t able to afford to ride anymore.

That was until I turned 16 and I was able to start volunteering with horses. When my parents split up and it sent me into a depression, I dreaded getting up…

We did not know what the outcome would be but I told her that I would teach her. She asked me to teach her when we were feeding the…
