What backstory there is to Tolkien and horses?

Dear fandom, I trust some of you has deeper knowledge on this issue. Horses feature heavily in number of his stories, and horses often are given names and even personality, instead of being just tools of transportation. I know Tolkien used to train horses or something of the kind during or before WW1. What lead him to such position? Did he had experience on them beforehand, and did he continue working with horses after the war in any way?
Just curious!
But every word you say today
Gets twisted 'round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied
