Cobs don't exactly get enough credit...?

I agree that cobs don't get enough credit. They are such sturdy little "powerhouses" and usually willing to put up with a fair amount of abuse by novice riders. They can carry the entire family, and usually are very low maintenance. I think many horse people are obsessed with showing, and even if they don't show they want to ride the pretty, flashy, "showy" types.

No need to apologize for your riding either. We all started out as beginners too, though some people on Yahoo act like they were experts from the 1st time they sat in a saddle. I liked the way you patted the horse in apology for making a mistake, and didn't punish the horse. That's the kind of thing that makes a true horseman!

I love cobs, they range from the placid plod to firey little things who are so much fun. My sister's is excellent, with an experienced rider he's brill and can be quite sharp and yet we can put a complete beginner on him, without leading him (always in a secure environment) and he'll plod round and really look after them.

Santino is hated as his character now seems to be the cowardly heel.it fairly is his interest i think of to sell this & be over with followers via fact the celeb all of them like to hate.His section with Stone chilly at the instant became the funniest element he's completed in an prolonged time.I agree he's charismatic & fairly gifted on the mic. He seems to be hated much greater now in view that this Maria storyline the place he's now decreased to her valet.Santino might desire to artwork on his wrestling skills & get some greater in-ring journey to flesh out his character.That way he might get greater credits for his efforts.

I love cobs! I have my own piebald cob! It all depends on how you ride!

When my cob first came to me we could barely make it over a cross pole without him knocking it down, he was strong, stubborn and now he is a jumping pony!

We can jump 3ft clear with ease!! He has muscle tone on his bum now and can beat the more 'fit' 'showy' ponies when we are galloping and still have the 'fitness' and endurance to be ahead afterwards! He has gotten more feisty during jumping and tries more now!

Cobs are great for example with me he will turn into a jumping pony yet he will give my less confident mum a steady ride!

Anyone who says cobs can't jump clearly have never had a cob. My cob will plod around with my little cousins and be really careful and gentle with them and then he will jump 3ft with me and test me! Yes he bucks and is really strong but this shows you how SAFE and SMART cobs are, he will test me but keep me safe, he knows i will not fall but it will wake me up a bit whereas he would never dare do that with my little cousins on top.

I love my cobby and can't wait to do some jumping, cross country & hunting with him! :)

Cobs are the best :)

Dont underestimate them if you have never had one readers :) x

I don't exactly know what your question is, but cobs are my favorite! :) I think they are adorable.
