This is a horse I'll be adopting soon. He was rescued in May and has some progress to make but is doing well. He's supposedly an appendix. He has no dorsal stripe. They call him a buckskin but I've never seen one like this. Maybe he's a "sooty buckskin"?
Thanks everyone. So he IS buckskin, just not the traditional kind... haha. He's a very sweet boy. I LOVE his amber eyes. He's coming home exactly a week from today! I'm SO excited. I've never heard of a brown based buckskin. So he is a diluted brown, basically?
Speaking of buckskins and new horses, this guy is not the only new addition. Here's another horse, a paint mare, that will be coming next Sunday as well. She's on the opposite side of the weight spectrum though...
^ that's the photo her owner sent to me when he told me about her
^ that's a photo I took of her when I went to look at her
Standing the two of them side by side will definitely highlight the difference between brown based buckskin and bay based buckskin. I know which one I prefer lol.
No, she has been running with a gelding. The horses around here are really plump, even the geldings look like they're about to drop a foal any day. That picture makes her look pregnant, doesn't it?
We are calling Dozer (the gelding) "mud colored" haha :P Thanks Spirit
