Appaloosa: strong, opinionated, extremely intelligent, a partner or an enemy. I've owned one (my horse of a lifetime I miss her terribly) and known a few. Amazing horses but every one was the same. Drop kick you if you tried to boss them but would give their whole heart if you shared a partnership. All were also extremely visual with their moods and thoughts, facial expressions especially.
Welsh: sweethearts with trust issues and big personalities. They take their time,more than any other breed I've been involved with,to bond with and trust their owner. Never yet met a nasty, malicious Welsh but have met (and currently own) many a drama queen. They tend to "over react" in true Welsh flare and if you're not familiar with the breed or savvy it can be a match made in hell with the wrong pairing of horse/owner. They are very intelligent and often independant and in my experience with them,they will if they learn they can push all your buttons and always test whether you are worth trusting. I love the breed but they are not for everyone.
