After leasing Scotti for more than 6 months- we finally bought him! He's an 8 year old Percheron/TB cross. I've been riding my whole life and I've never had the chance to own a horse. My husband really wanted me to have him though :D I'm so lucky!

Ohhh, I feel your pain! We have a horse that has the same problems. All of his bridles have to come from draft horse places and his halters are huge! Good luck with him though!

he's absolutly stunning!! Love the family shot! and the one of you and him. long wait but im sure its worth it!

My boyfriend still thinks i shouldn't have bought my horse. But hey its working out so far! ha!

and i have the same head problem! my horse is just under 15hh and has a huge head!! i bought him a horse sized fly mask and it was to small! now he needs a new halter and i'm kinda nervice to buy one because of his ginormous face lol

Congrats! He is beautiful and you sure do look happy. I agree with MyBoyPuck - your husband is going to miss you.

Good luck on the headstall. My husband's draft cross ended up having a local tack store make his halter so that a few things could be adjusted to fit him because draft was too big and large was too small. For a riding bridle we use a WB with a few adjustments and it works.

LoL Yea- if he had a normal job, I'm sure he would! But he's a Marine and when he's home he works really long days... he's gone a lot for training and then the dreaded deployment :-/ So, my hope is that Scotti will help me through everything when my husband is gone!

Ahh! I've been looking in all the wrong places for a good man. I never considered the military guys. I was just looking for a guy who golfed a lot! Scotti will definitely get you through the apart time. Now I'm really glad you got a horse!
