Is my boy overweight? Also in CR

Just want to see what your thoughts are, thanks x

Not the greatest of photos to really tell but he looks alright to me

Ignoring the photo as it's not great for weight critique etc. Can you feel his ribs? Gutter down the back?

 

[charlie55]

You can feel his ribs yes, but can see them that well x

Looks fine but depends what you do with him? I'd want mine slightly leaner to event, but for dressage etc he looks fine.

You don't need to be able to see them clearly. If you can just about see them then that's fine, but if you cannot feel them easily (without pressing) then he is overweight.

Hes a dressage horse. Thankyou for replying girls

Best thing is to look at the WHW website for their condition scoring info. He looks pretty good to me, nice horse.

He looks like a Charlie I know, who is Hanovarian.

Lovely looking horse.

certainly would not want to see any more weight on him.
