Drifters Growing I think

[Flibble]

I havent actually measured him but I was looking at him today and I could swear his bum is higher than his withers.

So if you bear in mind he is just 6 and ISH with a poor top line and muscle is beginning to build then how big will he be the ad last year called him 16.1hh but he was never that last time I measured him he was 16.3 and a bit and that was in march.
This was last August with a friend holding him the day he arrived.

And this is a year later

Please note I have trained my big pony to stand when asked to WAIT

I think he is lovely

!!

I also think it is probable muscle and topline that is making him look like he has grown!!

Thanks Slinky he is due to be shod today perhaps the Farrier can bring him back down.

He is developing into a lovely person (horse ?) its hard to remember sometimes when you see changes creep in. Last year he was a monster at feed times and I kept out of his way in the stable and now I muck out around him move his bucket if he is chewing over poo.

He leads in and out of the field like a dream and is the pefect gent on the yard. Every day I try and find something new to challenge him.

I am still waiting for my saddler to check his saddle as its fit concerns me so I have been doing a lot of lungeing and playing on a lunge line with him. He has a very biddable attitude so once I get my saddle sorted I can start working towards my jumping again.
