He has some very cute coloring, I love the deep red "accents" he has - hes like a doberman horse!

With him standing so "off" in all of his photos its hard for me to give a honest critique.

Well, first of all, he toes out a bit in both the front and hind legs. He stands very base-wide with his hind legs. I don't like his front legs at all. He may even be a little back in knee with those. His hooves need to get done and once that is done, that may help the angle of his fetlocks. He's got a roached back and a ewe's neck. He could also stand to use a bit more muscling but I'm sure that will come with time as you own him.

I'm just giving you my honest opinion on this boy. He is very cute, its just his conformation isn't all that great.

Well he is offset in his cannons which makes him stand toed out in the front. In the back he is also toeing cause he is sickle/cow hocked. Then he has no muscle what so ever. His haunches are small then big in the middle & small shoulders. His back is not very good & his neck is the oppesite of what you want.

i have to say i think that horses back may be out of place. if he seems sore or cranky or bucks i suggest getting him looked at. Not saying this is for sure but just a thought and he defiently need weight and muscle
