So i went to see the horse tonight I mentioned earlier. Only round the corner so didn't bother getting a video before I went - big mistake.
Beautiful boy let me cradle his head in my arms and gently pull on his ears, he was so kind, and i had a lovely cuddle. Just my type of horse, big middleweight sort and very kind.
But soon as the stable door opened I saw he was quite pigeon toed on the left foot. He had a terrible sacrum with obvious sacral problems. He dished on both front feet, he wouldn't use his hind end and was resistant into canter. Bunny hopped and disunited at times or would try and run through the corner. Tail held to one side.
Knew he wasn't coming home with me as soon as I saw the sacrum. Saw him trotted up and ridden but I had to intention of getting on to add to his discomfort. Shame but i can't have another crock in the paddock although I'm sure he and Lari would have got on like a house on fire.
He was a lovely person and I just hope he goes to a good home.
Never mind, my savings can get a boost in the meantime. Lots of frogs to be kissed first I suspect. This photo was the spit of his confirmation.
