Three things are not to be trusted: a cow’s horn, a dog’s tooth, and a horse’s hoof

You cannot judge a horse by a harness

You can take a horse to the water but you cannot make him drink

You can’t close the stable door after the horse has bolted

Who cannot beat the horse, beats the saddle

While the grass grows, the horse starves

Trust not a horse’s heel nor a dog’s tooth

To lock the stable-door after the horse is stolen

To flog a dead horse

The master’s eye makes the horse fat

The common horse is worst shod

The best horse needs breaking, and the aptest child needs teaching

That’s a horse of another colour

Misfortunes arrives on horseback but departs on foot

Many dogs soon eat up a horse

Nothing like the old horse for hard road

Steal a horse

Never look a gift horse in the mouth

The grey mare is the better horse

One man may steal a horse, while antoher may not look over a hedge

To put (set) the cart before the horse

How can the foal amble, when the horse and mare trot

Hungry horse makes a clean manger

If an ass goes a-traveling he’ll not come home a horse

If two men ride on a horse, one must sit behind

If wishes were horses then beggars would ride

If wishes were horses, beggars might ride

Diseases come on horseback, but go away on foot

Do not spur a willing horse

Don’t close the barn door after the horse runs away

Don’t lock the stable door after the horse has been stolen

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth

Don’t put the cart before the horse

Every man has his hobby-horse

A running horse needs no spur
