Droooolllliiiinnnnngggggg! Over the horse!
Wish I could ride with my shirt off, would cause quite a scene around
these parts. Just call me lady Godiva!
Perfect example of the connection, wish it was more encouraged to get
people back to how it all started and quit leaning on aides.
I think everyone should be taught to ride bareback first, then move on to
the trickier jumping/working with saddles and "stuff"!
The original photo on Facebook described the horse as a Percheron. I posted it as it clearly shows what can be done to get front end animation (as opposed to mere front end action) without the use of devices.
I, with much fervor can not agree the horse is a full blood Percheron or to even any percentage. I would rather with little reservation say he is most or full blood Andalusian. In the first place Percherons are only either black or white/grey.
Whatever he is, he is a d*** gorgeous and very handsome specimen of horseflesh.
Ummmmm...that horse is a dappled gray. And he's way too chunky/drafty/muscled to be an Andalusian. Andalusians are way more refined and not nearly as big-boned as that horse is.
Nice photo and I agree it is more perch than andalusian.
And, I will add this photo to the people who claim the only way to get a horse into a "dressage frame" is by cranking on a double bridle and using brute force.
I couldnt see the first link on my iPod but I did see the video.. Amazing. I agree that it's probably a Percheron, looks a lot like one at the barn I work at Posted via Mobile Device
Wow what a gorgeous photo and horse!
After seeing that photo I had to log into facebook and look at the rest of his photos. What an amazing photographer! If you guys haven't I would definitely recommend looking through his other albums. I wish I could talk pictures like that!
that has got to be the most amazingly gorgeous horse i have ever seen...
