Well, the size of the horse depends on the size of you, or the person who is going to ride. If its a little kid, she/he should have a pony, which is under 15 hands(horses/ponies are measured by hands) and the little kids shouldn't be riding a horse because it might to strong for them to handle. If your older
(13 or older) you should def get a horse. 15.3 hands and bigger!
Hope this helps:D

∙ 12y agoWell it would depend on your height and weight. If you are thinner built and tall, then you might look better on a horse between 15.3 to 16.2 hands. if you're shorter or heavier built then anything under 15.3 hands will be best. Shorter horses have more weight carrying ability than taller horses, despite the many myths about taller horses being stronger. Also a horse should have a minimum of 7 inches of cannon bone per 1000 pounds of it's body weight. Also broader loins tend to mean a stronger horse too.

∙ 10y agoThat really depends on what you plan on doing w/ the horse.
Pleasure riding,
Eventing,
Dressage,
Horse Wrangling,
Rodeoing, etc.
As different Breeds of horse are used for each & they're configured differently as well. Height, Barrel diameter, Bone size, Hoof size, Mussel density, etc.
It also depends on your own Height as well.
