I really like him too :) I love his size! I noticed that too in one of the pics, but I think it might just be the angle of the picture and the way he was standing :)

hehe, so do i! xD We will probably go look at him soon, the person wants my mom to phone her to make sure I have permission to inquire about him.
So, my mom will phone hopefully tommorow or the next day. And, since he is only 10 mins away, we can prob look at him during the week :)
OMG! I totally forgot! Wednesday is no school because of remembrance day! Maybe we can go then! xD

The last picture you posted of him looks like he's lost some weight, his bum doesn't look as big and he just looks better and more lean. If he was in England and wasn't so big and quite cheap then I'd be looking at him.

Actually, I think hes pretty much the same.. its just the angle, his butt is turned out more :)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure we can go see him Wednesday :)

I still want to do english, but since he doesnt do it, I could just teach him to do it. The tb gelding, he didnt do western, but I want to do both :)
Over the winter, I will probably be doing alot of trail riding and bareback, so probably wont start english until spring :)

I might just be crazy, but did anyone else notice that blue looks a little footsore in the video when she was lunging him?IDK it might just be me though.
The last horse looks awesome! I would go look at him first, but always keep in mind that pretty is as pretty does!!lol
Good luck !

They both seem like really nice horses, but I am going to bring up some conformational concerns, though it might not matter depending on what you want to do with your horse. Blue has a weak hip and gaskin and a long back. He probably won't be able to collect very well for jumping and dressage, but if you're looking for a trail horse, he looks like a winner.

As far as Koko- I love her. She is so precious! If I didn't have one equally precious already, I might buy her myself:) The only thing that makes me uncomfortable is how lowset her neck is- she will have more difficulty becoming light on her forehand, but again, if she's just going to be a trailhorse or whatever, this shouldn't be an issue.
