I have just bought a 3 year old heavyweight coloured show cob, who is turning out to be an absolute star.

I would love to see pictures and know a little bit about what you do with yours.....

He's mine.....

I bought my mare aged 4, 15.1hh -- VERY similar build to your lad.
She's now 13 years old and 16.2hh with 11 inches of bone. Firmly in the maxicobs, now!!!

Your boy is lovely :)

Oh my! I wasnt expecting him to grow to anything like that size. :O I almost asked the questions of how big should i expect him to grow but after being told he will make 15.2 and probably no bigger, I didnt bother!

Pictures?!!!!!It would appear that nobody here has a HW cob as no pictures have been posted! ;)
 
I have a heavy weight but he's a full hairy traditional! I may turn him into a show cob one day but we shall see... Count your lucky stars your boy has a black tail, what I wouldn't give for Harry to have one of those!!

Btw, he is GAWRGEOUS :D

Aw thanks :)

I know, I didnt notice that until someone mentioned it. I am very glad. I find it hard to keep his white bits anything near white, nevermind a tail!
 
My Molly-moose!! We don't do showing just yet (can't afford the tweed) but might do one day. We venture into the world of dressage and Trec. Here's some pics....

Gleelful Imp - I rememeber seeing a few posts from you about Gorgeous George and thinking how beautiful and huge he is, how big is he?

I love seeing what people do with their heavyies. I cant wait to get out and about on mine next year. Enjoying hacking and getting to know each other this year :)
