Ah, gotcha! I just freak right out when horses are tied improperly.. I've seen firsthand what happens... not pretty, not something I'd wish on anyone's horse - sorry if I seemed hostile! Completely not my intent, just want your gorgeous new boy as safe as possible!!
I demand (haha) update pictures in a month, I bet he'll have changed a lot in even that amount of time.

Oh my gosh, he is gonna be a beauty. 14 or 15 is not old at all and you should be able to use him for at least another 10 years. I agree with you, he looks like an appendix to me. From what I can tell from his confo, he looks very well put together; his shoulder and croup are a good length and nice angle, his legs seem straight, and his neck ties in low. His knees and hocks also look to be pretty low set, he should be a very flowy mover.

The filly is adorable too though she looks a little evil in the pix LOL .

Wow, he is so handsome and looks like an absolute sweetheart. I'm glad you were able to save him. Please keep us updated on his improvement.

The filly is also quite adorable!

Thank you everyone !
I definitally will update on photos for you all :)
And lol this is where i can say, " i know how to pick them ! ;) "
Im hoping when the vet comes to see him, when we need the other horses to see a vet than what he will say about his age.
we are going to deworm them all and give the new ones their vaccs etc.
The Filly well her name is Sunfire and she is practically the boss ! the colts are afraid of her lol !

Dont worry JustDressageIt, i know what you mean im exactly the same way lol, about when it comes to animals, :)

wow!!! that is an awsome buy for $90. He is so handsome and when he gets some heft to him, he is going to be even more gorgeous. I agree with you i think he is QH/TB cross, he has QH looks and TB looks. You are so lucky. What a handsome guy. I cant believe someone just dumped him off at a sale, what the H!!

^ I know right :( i never even got to get more information on him! never saw the owners around him once, i was watching his stall like a hawk, and i saw NOONE go there, but i stayed around him and he would come up to me and was just adorable. <3
And if he is broke, well its a bonus !
