We got the wee chap this morning, he took everything in his stride. He loaded very well, travelled like a lamb and settled in very fast when we got him home. He will need his front feet doing as they are flat and will get a vet to check for balls apart from that he is a sweetie. He is being wormed tomorrow and the headcollar was removed before we left. Will be lots of photos in Picture Gallery later but for now here are some I took on my phone! :):)

Yay! Putting one single lone photograph up on FB is just cruel :p

He looks so lovely, huge congrats to you. Don't let the boss Welshie get jealous though ;)

she got VERY jealous! I had to bring her in and give her love and say nice things, and then she forgave me ;)
High hopes he stays as lovely as he is!


Paint me Proud-I know right! Always wanted one of these! Hehe :p:p
Thanks all :D

Oh now he looks a cutie. Look at him :) nothing a little love can't sort out. What a lovely face. Not as much bone as I was expecting from the description but he looks very nice. You planning on keeping him to bring on when he's old enough?

How could anyone part with that lovely lad. You've got yourself a really nice looking horse, please, please keep us updated and give us regular reports about him! BTW What have you called him? May I say well done for having the heart to help him, I don't mean it patronisingly just that I really admire your commitment to helping him.

I don't know! probably because his boy bits haven't dropped and aren't likely to. he is such a sweetie though, happy to have fuss etc even whilst busy eating. His name is Haribo, I thought it was a really cute name so we have kept it! :D
Plan on doing regular updates :) Can't wait to see how he grows and changes myself :D

Very cute.
So you're hoping he doesn't go above 15.2hh. Did you find out the height of sire and dam to know in theory what he should make? I know they don't always co-operate on height :(

Thankies :)


read the posts :p:p we are leaving his name as Haribo as it is dead cute! :D:D

taylor, don't be so bloody rude! not everyone reads every single post on a thread you know!

Welshie squisher - apparently his sire is a palamino welsh D 15.2hh and dam is a 3/4 TB , i can't remember her height but from memory (wasn't really listening at the time ) she is at least 15hh.
he currently stands around 13hh and is 17 months so if anyone would like to gestimate adult height please feel free.
