After digging out my Sleeping Beauty Colorforms with Samson the horse, I thought it might be fun to look at a few more Disney horses.
Horses factor into many Disney movies, especially the animated ones. Some have important roles in the film; in others they are secondary to the main characters or even just part of the background.
Here are a few of my favorites.

Nokk, who is featured in Frozen II, is a Disney horse who plays an important role. Along with Elsa, he helps save the town of Arendelle from a flood and then remains with Elsa as her mount in the Enchanted Forest.
and a stuffed Bullseye that is my stable mascot. As you can see, he is a favorite of the grands and well loved.
I may not be a unicorn lover, but I am absolutely a fan of Pegasus! He is not the brightest crayon in the box in Disney's depiction of him, but he still is fun.
This movie is full of Green mythology, art, and more. I even used it in my classroom a couple of times when teaching Greek Mythology - the kiddos loved seeing the references to the myths they had learned about.
My favorite Disney horse comes from one of my least favorite Disney movies.
Here's a clip that always makes me laugh.
There are many more Disney horses, too many for me to write about. Want to take a look at them? Go here for a comprehensive list of every Disney Horse.
