This is my boy Charlie A.K.A Charles Asher, he is OTTB but I have no idea how long he has been off the track. He is around 3 or 4 and is, no joke, 17.3 (i measured him half a billion times, had to make sure) I have no history on him because he was a rescue out of Danville, KY and was in horrible condition. He was 600 some lbs underweight, still had racing plates on and a mild case of thrush. My first OTTB had passed away earlier this year and i kinda think it was fate for charlie and me to find each other (even if that sounds silly to some people) I have no history on him at all, i dont know for sure how old he is or his racing name. He's tattoo'd but I cant read it but Im trying!
He's amazing, takes care of me like no one else in the world and is a complete doll!!
From about 2 months after I got him

He was being silly and rubbing his face and bitting the webbing.

This one was from about a month and a half ago. I believe he was 900lbs ISH.

^how tall is the person in the picture? Cause that person must be 7 feet tall if your boy is 17.3!

i think hes like 6 foot but he was standing a foot away from him, it doesnt look like it though. Ive had my vet out and a bunch of people have measured him cause they dont believe hes as bit as he is. its crazy.
