I thought i'd start a new thread (new beginnings and all that) however the previous thread can be found here:
http://www.horseandhound.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?614006-This-has-gone-on-too-long

I'm going to take some photographs of prince to document his progress every week.
So heres the start.

Poor guy! He looks reasonably happy and healthy now despite his condition, must know he's in good hands

It will be great to see his progress - I read the last thread after you had got him but didn't comment, it's a really great thing you've done for him.

Poor chap. But think how fabulous he will be with some meat on his bones :)

I look forward to further updates. I don't doubt the next one will show the beginnings of an improvement.

Didn't catch the end of the previous thread but think I recall some of the story anyway. Hopefully, with some decent care he'll look a totally different horse in no time.

Worringly though, I saw a horse at a show last week (doing the showjumping) with a rump not dissimilar to that in your picture. In addition, the poor horse had some big lump of a rider on him too :(

Poor lad he's so thin. He's very lucky that you kept pushing the owner to do something, I can't imagine how awful he would look in winter if he stayed in the same ownership, well done you!

Contact Farmkey .. They should be able to tell you where he was done, what year and possibly what his name was at the time
And may be able to forward your details to previous owners to trace his history

Hello! You can guess where i've been all day :p
Today Prince had a wormer. EquiMax at the advice of the wormer dispenser.
He also had his mane pulled and a small detol wipeover. Pictures later, i forgot! He was ecstatic to see the other horses again!

He was done with the previous owner. He'd had him since a 10 month old colt so really its just the breeder, him and now me!

A huge well done to you! Looking forward to updates and photos :)
Thank you very very much everyone, but I'm certain you all would have done it in my shoes!

Well done you, that is a fantastic thing you have done. What a lucky horse Prince is now to have been given a second chance with you. Every horse deserves to be truly loved and cared for and at long last Prince has got his chance. Look forward to seeing more updates on the pair of you :biggrin3:
