Critique Maddy- 6 yr old OTTB

No, it almost looks like it's slightly roached...but it might just be the way she is standing.

But you are welcome, she sure is stunning.

yeah the ground def isn't even so that doesn't help but i had to tie her or she'd follow me rather then pose for the camera lol

Try your best to get a special privilege to take her out. Explain her condition to the BO, and I'm sure he will understand. Are the paddocks or fields well enclosed and safe for you to leave her out alone?

Yep .. there are three paddocks (2 smaller and one med sized). She has always been good when turned out, never caused a problem- it isn't just me who can't do it its everyone so i am not sure what the deal is but will ask. She has a 12x12 stall with a 12x12 paddock too ...

Have you ever asked why you can't turn them out. I feel that is unfair. Are you paying to board your horse there? If so, then you must get your money's worth.

yep I pay board... they just changed the rule because I used to be able to turn her out as long as it wasn't between 12-5 (that is when the ppl who pay them to turn their horses out get turned out- but there are only 3 turn outs and only one horse can be in them at a time so i don't want to pay to have them turn her out cause there isn't even a space)

Ahhhh. Right. I can understand that one.

What is the reason that no more than one horse per field? Is it because they fight or because there is only space for one?

they are small... :(

That really sucks. I don't know how my horse will survive without her time out in the field...

You must still ask your BO though. Even if you pay abit extra. = )

i wouldnt ever
1. board at a place were i had to pay extra for turnout
2. board at a place were my horse goes out alone (and not for medical reasons) horses are herd animals, and may change behavior (dangerous, or depressed) when they are alone/ get lonely.
