I posted last week about being offered a free horse. Well after a lot of consideration I've decided I can have him! I've discussed it with my yard manager and she's given me a good livery deal for him, his old owner is giving me all his tack and rugs so I don't have to buy anything, all I have to do is look after him and love him and I can't wait! He is officially mine from next thursday
So here's some more info: He is a 15.1hh bay anglo-arab. He is beautiful and very friendly, he loves to lick people and attention of any kind. He is 19 years old so he is getting on in years but he still has plenty on life in him, he is a fairly sharp ride who likes to go fast and gets excited easily! He loves xc and is pretty good at dressage, he has an amazing extended trot and is well schooled. I am very excited about getting him! I will hopefully compete him in some dressage comps and maybe do some hunter trials. Sadly he's not too keen on showjumping! He has been in a riding school for years which is now closing down, hence why he's being given away. He has a few special management issues in that he's allergic to sugar, is prone to tying up, has a tendancy to injure himself etc; but I don't mind this. I've known him a long time so think I'll be able to look after his needs pretty well. I hope to give him a really nice home where he can have lots of fun but obviously being careful with him due to his age and tying up etc. His name is Roscoe and hopefully he and my boy Luca will become great friends!
Here are some photos of him:
His conformation isn't brilliant I know!
