She's incredibly cow-hocked, she has a long back, and I don't really like her shoulder...but I like how she moves, looks more english than western.

Long back, thick neck, cow hocked, toed out in back. Her rear hooves also look rather long too.

She looks really stocky too.

Where do you get Percheron? She doesnt look anything like one in any respect She looks like a pleasantly plump Arab mare Really cute, I like her. She looks like she has alot of "spring" to her strides. lol

That mare looks like she's a draft cross. Not sure what the rest of her is but there has to be some draft in there. what are you wanting to do with her?
