Got this girl and cant wait to start training. Got her late this afternoon and letting her sit for the night. She attacked the grass! She come from a sale, the guy I got her from had her locked in a stall for a week in till I got her. She has some bad looking cuts on her hind legs but are now scabbed up.(He said in happened at the sale before he got her.) So going to get a better look at it tomorrow and put some meds on it. And worm her. She knows how to lead and tie somewhat so thats a start. She is under weight and said to be a coming 2 year old. And both eyes are blue. I will get some better pics tomorrow, but I took a few before coming inside. And I also need names!
She looks like that would be what she is most suited for- it might be just me but her legs look VERY upright and may be a little sickle-hocked behind- but i think that is just the way she is standing.
actually, I think she's nicely conformed. it's the lack of stifle muscle that makes her look peg legged. I think she's got good bone, good angle and a great shoulder. this horse will be a powerful athlete , once fed (assuming there is no lameness). I think you scored!

She is absolutely beautiful. I'm sure she will become a great horse!
Thanks tinyliny. I haven't seen her lope yet but she has a nice ground covering trot.I cant wait to see her filled out. I am hoping she will be stocky.
Thanks guys, I thought she looked good myself. going to try and get some better pics to give u guys a better look. So far the only bad thing is that she is very pushy. But that wont take much to fix. She is very people attached though. I think because my mare is trying to kill her and she has no one else to hang with. But they will work it out, hopefully sooner than later.
Took her out to clean her up a little, and she rolled in a mud puddle. So I cleaned her up as much as a brush could. She is so sweet! She eat the wormer on her own,Tied perfect other than being a little antsy at first,And let me spray her with fly spray. She did not flinch. And LOVES to be brushed. When I went to catch her she walked right up to me and stood there in till I took off her halter and put on a rope one. So she now is halter free. Its like she was begging to come out so she would not be bullied anymore. Lol. I put her back up and she followed around like " Dont leave in here with her!". I felt so bad. I got some new pics She has some rain rot on her loins and lots of cuts and scraps. Most are healed, they just have to grow the hair back. The cut on her leg looks bad, so meds was put on it. Please excuse the mud. It wont stop raining.
It seems she had to have something done with her. She does know a few things. She is very sweet, and to have been treated badly and thrown on a trailer to a sale. It seems she would be scared of people or jumpy. But she is not scared at all, not even shying away. I just dont know how someone could take the time to make her how she is now and just throw her away.
Update on Ellie. Gaining weight, Her rain rot is healed, and her leg is looking better. Got some pics to day to see if she looks like she has gained a any weight. I think she looks different. what do you guys think? Sorry about the glow, it is very sunny and she is very white. She glows. :lol:
much prettier girl- I really like that shoulder on her...too bad her neck is upside down and under-muscled...she will be a looker with good excercise and training.
I think Patch would be a good name for her. I don't hear many horses called that. She has definitely put some weight on and looking better. Hope she keeps a gentle mind once she gets fully up to weight and muscle.
