new member of the zoo, critique please

if he doesn't show up for you here, he's in my "critters" album

Sweet sweet face

Here's one for critique.
And I'm leaning more towards thoroughbred now....

Oh my gosh ... HOW did I miss his thread? He has an adorable face! I stay way from critiquing TB's though. I don't do well with them.

Well, try anyway, just pretend he's an appendix as originally thought

The big grey ? He is a nice looking horse. He is very solid looking.
Is the sorrel the skipper w , with the brand on the butt ?
The big grey horse looks like he would be good for dressage or HJ .

Yup, sorrel(actually she's registered chestnut), is the Skipper W. I gotta take new pics of her

Beau/Bo tried on his new (my old) western saddle, and for now that's what it will be. He has to grow a set of decent feet before he'll work seriously.

Okay then!

I don't think there's much to pick on here, myself. I agree with the others that say his shoulder is a bit upright. His neck is set a bit low and his back is a touch long. He appears a bit bum high and camped under in the back BUT I think the fence is tricking my eyes somewhat with the shadows across his legs.

He's got great bone and looks very balanced and sturdy. Plus I want to kiss his face!

That's so funny that you said puppydog. My friend laugh at me because I call my horse "puppy". Very nice looking horse you have there!

Thank you
BBB, he's definitely not bum high or camped under. He's standing a bit funny because he's sore. They had him in a packed dirt with rocks paddock right next to newly arrived pigs...he ran like an idiot and hurt his RF
Bluehorse, I call all my animals and sometimes even hubby "ciuccolo".....Italian for puppy
