cobs

I have had 2 cob crosses. Both were fantastic horses and both have evented at pre-novice.

This is Tia who is a welsh cob cross

Well here are my two:
Megan Welsh Cob Section D

My Fresian Cob Cross Stan

The Welshy is a bolshy baggage at times but I love her to bits and Stan a bombproof in traffic but not keen on umbrellas !
 
Mac is Suffolk Punch x ID, but people think he is cobby. He is the sanest most loving boy boy you could ever meet.

Dolly. Not really sure what breeding, too big for traditional cob, but definitely cob in there.

Would trust either of them with complete novices, although Mac can be ever so strong, but both have plenty of character and are really good fun.
 
For years I had an arab, 2 TBs and a WB. Now totally hooked on the gypsy cob (and of course the clydesdale). Fun, very forward going but safe - just what you need as when you get into your 40s the falls hurt more than they used to.

Here is the baby - he is just 2 in this pic

And the old boys who is 21 this year but still going strong

COBS ROCK!!!!!

I am lucky and haven't come across many people who are anti cob, more the opposite and people have been converted into loving them they are just fab and can do soooooooo much!!! There is not a ploddy bone in my boys body he is up for everything and is the most loving horse I have ever met!!!!

I love them!!!!!!

I wouldn't buy anything that wasn't a cob or cob cross, I just don't get on with finer beasts! Chex isn't super heavy, but he has the cob mentality - that stubborn streak, the calmness, and the ability to put his hooves to anything! Not 100% keen on really lazy cobs, but thats because I'm too lazy to constantly keep them going lol

Here's my little cob (not a true cob, but near enough!):

Ooo did once have a comment at a hunter trials, my friend overheard someone asking if that carthorse was doing it!!!! How rude and he beat all of their horses so a very belated ner ner ner ner ner!!!!
 
I must agree with all the comments. I have a beautiful girl, Welsh cob, she too is very wide but oh so comfy and you just feel safe on her.

I love all the pics, must try and get some of mine on here. Is it easy to do?
