Guest cathgart Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hi, Horses and pigs don't mix. For some reason they seem to dislike each other. Have seen a good boar try to attack a horse that the farmer was riding at the time. Only good thing is a horse can run faster!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
