[RC] Marwari horses - Donna O'GaraI was in India for New Years and I rode some marwari horses and loved them. The problem is it's nearly impossible to import them. The Indian government doesn't want them to leave and the US government won't easily let them through quarantine (long boring story). There are only a few -- maybe 10 or 15? in the US. They would probably be phenominal endurance horses. The ones I met had problems getting along with each other, but I don't know how much of it was inborn and how much learned. We had to keep about a third of them away from the others or they'd kick, and they were accurate kickers. They also weren't very personable, but that too could be learned behavior. They aren't all gaited, but I understand most are. I didn't get a chance to experience the gaits. The ears are marvelous.
