Horses in Strange Situations

Naughty HorseSometimes horses do the silliest things, which I guess is part of the reason we love them so dearly.

Don’t Worry, Everyone is OK

From what I’ve read, all of these animals recovered with minor injuries and no serious harm was done to anything other than their dignity.

So it’s ok to have a chuckle over them now, although I’m sure no one was laughing at the time. Good thing for us (not so much the horse) they stopped the rescue long enough to take a few snapshots.

This silly guy ate too many fermented apples and fell into the family swimming pool. By the way, the horse’s name is Fat Boy.

Horse inside a pub

Hey, a horse can enjoy a pint now and then too can’t she? This horse actually became a regular at a pub in South Tyneside, UK.

Then there is the story of this drunk guy who rides his horse into the bank…then takes a nap on the floor.

Maybe you’ve seen this poor mare who managed to get her head so stuck in a tree that it took a kind man with a chainsaw to free her.

And yet another tree curious horse. Almost unbelievable that this has happened (and been photographed) more than once, but it has.

    Both shots of horses stuck in the tree are actually the same incident. The second photo has been shopped to include a saddle – the lighting is all wrong near the horses rear, and the stirrups and ropes appear to be defying gravity. Quite funny anyways though 🙂

    the photo is NOT shopped you nublet

    its was when the horse FIRST got stuck, they unsaddled it to help the horse.

    they then covered the horse with blanket while the tree was cut.

    Riiiiiiiight. Not photoshopped…. And I’m a magical glowing unicorn here to grant you you heart’s fondest desire. Just google ‘horse head in tree,’ and it will become quite obvious that the photo with the saddle is ‘shopped. Unless you intend for us to believe that this ONE photo with the saddle on is correct, and the rest of the 264 photos of the horse in the same pose WITHOUT A SADDLE are somehow ALL photoshopped.

    a) The saddle is clearly saturated much more than the rest of the photograph, even a novice to photoshop user can see that.

    b) The saddle seems to be defying gravity, as mentioned before, where the stirrups and rope should be at different angles. The saddle is also lacking a girth, seems to be sitting only on one side of the mare, and the random black line across the saddle that disappears under the front of the saddle pad would appear to be reins that have been tucked behind the saddle. Reins that go nowhere… Odd…

    c) Unless they were riding her bridleless, your irrational comment can’t even hold a drop of water, because if they couldn’t get her head out of the hole, they sure as hell couldn’t have gotten an entire BRIDLE off.

    Perhaps YOU should follow your own advice and do some research of your own before you start acting like you actually know what you’re talking about. Or are older than the aforementioned 12 year old.

    And NOOB is traditionally spelled like so. Nub is what you have left when your neighbor’s pitbull bites off your finger.

    ok, that pic was obviously photoshopped. Stop being such a jerk. I saw the same pic without the photoshopped saddle and blanket. looked fine.

    And if you were trying to be sarcastic and funny, i’m sorry, you should make yourself clearer if that was your goal.
