2 horses in one body!

[Paint Me Proud]

This made me raise an eyebrow so thought i'd share.

Have a look at the bay stallion - is it a trick of the camera, the level of the ground or is it two horses in one body!?

I'm confused the 1st pic is the coloured described.. Then the 2nd and 4th is the bay stallion and the 3rd picture is the bay mare in foal? Confused?

the 4th photo - bay stallion - looks like someone accidentally bred a shire with a shetland and he inherited the shires bum and the shetlands front!

Haha oh I see now! Yes his back end looks huge in that last photo! He's so bum high for a 4 year old?

He's not stallion material for me anyway

I think if you put a saddle on him you'd slide off the front!

OMG it's a cut & shut horse

Haha aww my friend has a cut and shut pony! Thankfully he is only a year or two old so hoping he will even out :-/

Sorry if im missing your sarcasm


It comes from the term for cars. A car with a good back on and one with a good front end.. are cut in half and welded together. Cutting in half... then shutting the gap between the with welds - cut and shut.

Very dodgey

"One form of lemon is called a cut and shut or clipping, a form of body collision "repair" based on buying a wrecked car and sawing off the wrecked section to replace it with a matching section from another (similar) car. If improperly repaired these vehicles may be inherently dangerous"

ps - isnt pic 2 the same horse as pic4?

'cut and shut' comes from dodgy car repairers who cut two cars up and weld them together to make one car

ah that makes sense. Although cut and weld would make even more sense, lol!

 

[tallyho!]

Poor ugly things.

Haha but it wouldn't rhyme! Phil Mitchell off Eastenders was always dealing in cut and shuts, I'm sure there are plenty of Phil Mitchell horse dealers too... 'whasgoingon?' 'It's not what it looks like!'
