I have a new pony....

[sw123]

its all rather scary as I've had Tog for a long long time but he has come back from injury fine and I want to keep him that way so he can now have a new job description just doing fun things and not too many lessons!!

This is the new boy to fill his rather large shoes....

16hh (altho i think he grew in the lorry last night!), 5 years, came out of Cavan sales last year, has hunted quite a bit and done some BSJA over the winter. Hopefully he wants to be an eventer!

Pedigree here - http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/mullentine+forever he's by a son of Cavalier and got some good TB lines too!

I got him home late last night and had to go to work early this morning so not had much chance to see him yet but a few pics

All very exciting and also rather terrifying, dont know if I can ride a non small grey irish number but sure there will be lots of ups, downs and fun trying!!

He looks very smart hope you have loads of fun with him

 

[Firewell]

Aw you'll be fine! He's looks very smart and sounds lovely too. Have fun

 

[measles]

He looks a lovely sort - good luck! I am in the process of buying a mare by another Cavalier stallion and if mine if anything to go by yours will def jump (generalisations r us)

 

[Fairy Dust]

He looks lovely! Good luck with him!

 

[Wigglypigs]

He looks very handsome! Wishing you all the best and looking forward to updates a-plenty

 

[Rosiefan]

Sounds very promising and looking pretty good but please may we have some pictures of him without his clothes on when you get a chance

 

[tigers_eye]

He looks very nice and sounds like he's had a lovely upbringing so far. Enjoy!

He looks very nice, you can't beat a nice bay pony. How has Tog taken to the young pretender?

Oh Baydale don't go there - i got home last night having put new boy (who is currently nameless) away and burst out crying, my poor boyfriend was a bit bemused as obviously having a new horse there is nothing to be sad about... But I was so upset that Tog hadnt looked happy and thought he wasnt getting attention and what if Tog doesnt like him and what if I can only ride Tog etc etc. Boyfriend replied with "Sally....they're horses...."

Awwww, I hope you told him that whilst they're horses, they're not just horses? Maybe if you told him it's like having a new boyfriend even though you haven't particularly fallen out with the old one, then he might have understood?

Baydale that post made me laugh. Next time my hubby says anything along the lines of she's just a horse, I will retort with your post !

 

[sw123]

Baydale that made me laugh too!! Sadly because he's a farmer an animal is just that, an animal! However, I think he has realised after this long that Tog is more than just a horse and comes way above him in the pecking order!!

 

[Thistle]

Loving Baydales reasoning!

Very nice horse btw
