Before backing your youngster, please read:
🐴 A horse ages about 3 times faster than a human.
So, a 90-year-old human is like a 30-year-old horse. Both are creaky, missing teeth, probably wear glasses, and are living their best retirement life—spending more time at the spa than at work. 🧓✨
A 25-year-old horse is like a 75-year-old human. Still getting things done, but don’t ask them to lift anything heavy.
A 20-year-old horse is like a 60-year-old human. Body’s a little sore, but the brain is still ready to run a marathon… even if the legs aren’t. 🧠🏃♂️
A 13-year-old horse is like a 39-year-old human. Peak performance—wise enough to know what’s going on, strong enough to get things done, and probably complaining about back pain by lunchtime. 💪😅
Now, let’s talk about the babies:
A 3-year-old horse is like a 9-year-old kid. Still in “I don’t wanna work” mode. Maybe they’ll help out by drawing you a picture of a unicorn, but that’s about it. 🎨🦄
A 4-year-old horse is like a 12-year-old kid. Doing odd jobs for pocket money—mowing lawns, delivering newspapers. They can start earning their keep, but don’t expect them to finish the job without a snack break. 🍪
A 5-year-old horse is like a 15-year-old teenager. Full of attitude, thinks they know everything, but can barely handle a chore without “accidentally” doing it wrong. Still growing, so don’t ask them to carry a fridge, but they can start building some muscle. 💪😜
A 6-year-old horse is like an 18-year-old human. An adult! Finally ready to do some real work—if you can get them to stop texting for five minutes. THE CORRECT AGE TO START WORKING! 📱💼
Pushing your youngster too hard too soon? Prepare for a future of limping horses and dramatic eye rolls. 🦵🤦♂️ Take your time! One more year of chill can add 10 years of useful working life. Be patient with your pride and joy (and maybe bribe them with snacks). 🧁🎉
Our own Farmleigh Storm, no competitions till 6 years old!
