I have to admit that i've only seen they grey in the magazine and to me it looked very fat. I have just spent a year getting my cob to lose waight and he was not as big as that to start with. Big bones and fat are totally different and they should not be used as an excuse
I don't know a lot about vetting but surly common sense would tell you its bad idea. I would never lunge on concrete so what good is a vetting going to tell you about it that can't be seen from lunging in a school. I hope the your poor horse recovers quickly.
I have a small pony that always comes up and licks me when I'm trying to tack up the Orc. I think its rather sweet although she can get in the way a bit. Orc likes to groom my back when I groom him which tickles as he has rather hairy whiskers. Both get multi vit in their tea and have himilayan...

I've got my first show of the year on saturday and the Orc is looking a mess so thought i'd give him a wash and try to get rid of some winter coat and make some headway with getting his socks white. The results are i'm soaking wet he's rolling in the worst part of his field and he's socks are...
i'm glad you have put off the measurements etc as it was starting to get expensive and this will be the first time doing big shows if we can get to some classes.
Will there be any classes in the suffolk norfolk area
