Because they are still growing, it can ruin their back and legs. In fact, it can pretty much destroy them.

The issue is in the joints. If you start to train a horse too young the joints do not seal properly. Typically we wait until three for quarter horses and as much as five or six years for draft breeds.
well you cant do it yourself but one month is one year.
Not knowing if you mean the age of the horse or the riders age. Both will be answered here. A rider can ride until physically unable to do so, there is no age limit. As long as a horse is healthy and physically able to bare weight, it can be ridden. Well, you don't really have to stop at a certain age. But maybe when your old and can barely walk. But I say if the horse is fine, you can ride. So when ever you feel like stopping is the age.
It Depends Were You Ride, In My Stables, You Have 2B SevenBut Im Sure You Can Ride From About 6.I Hope I've Helped :)I dont know where I go I saw a 3 year old riding it was so cute at another school u only have to be 1 but they just lead u in a circle if ur that young obviously u cant learn properly
The opposite of a female horse would be a male horse. A young male horse, under the age of four, is called a colt. An adult male horse, over the age of four, that has not been castrated is called a stallion or a stud. An adult male horse, over the age of four, that HAS been castrated is called a gelding.
You can NOT ride a horse or a pony at a year old. You will will cause serious damage to their growing body. A large horse is not done developing until 6-8 years of age and a small horse/pony is not done until 4-5 years of age. People how ride their horses before this time most likely will end up with horses that are arthritic and will not live very happy lives.
a horse has to be 2 years of age before you get them broke
No, it will be too young to be broken in :)
It depends on the horse. If I were starting a Quarter Horse from a young age, I would work from the ground until the horse was at least three years old, maybe four.
Yes! Mainly, you can ride a horse at any age, but the best time to ride is when you are young. I've known many riders who've started riding at all kinds of different ages, from 2 - 98!
Well it doesn't matter what breed your horse is, the average age to ride horses is between 3 to 20 years of age but if your horse has any medical problems like arthritis it might not be able to be ridden as long.

16 is about middle age. I knew a horse that lived to be in her 30s.

Every age is a good age for a horse. But for certain work a horse is in his prime from 5 through 15. For young riders with little experience an older horse is the best bet.
as long as you can walk, you can ride. This goes for young children and old adults

Any age, just wear a riding helmet and PROPER boots, and preferably have an adult present. Asking when you can ride a horse is like asking 'when can i sit on a space hopper?' what ever age you want, just take care!
