I think he's right Alex, she is going to be a gentle giant, a big beauty, a leggy model.
Nope she will be a shorty naughty, a midgit fidgit, a petite pony, a pocket rocket, an anything that stays under 16hh!!!!!

If it makes you feel better all this is cheering me up at a stressful time and taking my mind off poor Monty's giant elephant leg......except now I'm thinking about it. At least M's giant elephant leg is (hopefully) temporary.

Yes dear, you just keep telling yourself that and ignore elephant in the room and the mountain of evidence that is growing daily.

I was about to say seeing as he's 17hh and grey he normally has giant elephant legs anyway, but he doesn't really. He has scrawny TB legs on a giant Shire/Welsh body - which is probably why he's having problems! He's also a gentle giant and his owner's 10 year old rides him so I wouldn't worry about her size!

That may be even more useless than only 3 out of 4 travel boots, bravo :lol:, well unless your horse was particularly one sided .
None of anything big, but this is the wee darling being merciless bullied even though she's told me she's def all finished getting bigger now:

Alex Frankie pony (clue in the name) is in cob sized travel boots, with the shortest canons ever and they, if anything are too small. Embrace the full

Pfft Topaz fits in cob therefore Skylla must stay fitting in them too, she's not allowed to be bigger :lol:.

So gaining that elusive last boot was trickier than envisaged...
Placed the order with super duper express delivery, delivery company were excellent sending me text and email updates as to the whereabouts of the safe cargo of the wondrous jockey print travel boots. Messaged me on the Monday to say they will be with you between 1:45-2:45, hmm first snag I wouldn't be in, never mind reply back stating the safe place they can be left in! Feeling smug I went about my day, receiving an email and text to say they had been delivered and left in the safe place at precisely 1:54 . Super excited made my way home, no boots , check email and pictures they have sent to show the lovely package in a safe place, just not mine or indeed at my house...
Devastation at epic proportions by this point, wander the streets dejectedly peering at other peoples 'safe places' to no avail, (and gaining the reputation of a bin peer'er I'm sure ). Ring the delivery company in the morning and huzzah the lovely Martin is in the area knows which house he left it at and will have it to me in 20 mins! Counting the minuets down, and in only 10 he was there with the boots .
However to add, the front's of full size are too big so to everyone!!!

We have a 16.2TB who is all leg... (could have been 15.2 if he hadn't kept growing - a bit like Skylla ) FS are too tall on him so must be for giant horses!

I like that, could have been 15.2hh if they'd not carried on growing :lol:. I have to admit though, the FS hinds fit lovely , she must have oddly short cannons in front, but at least I do have both cob sized fronts!Any-one have a three legged horse with full size front legs but only one cob sized nearside hind? If so I have the travelboot set for you

I have to admit this thread had me in stitches the whole way.
Has the missing boot turned UP yet? Sorry I had to
Just how big is she OP? She's gorgeous. Mine is 16hh with a 14.2hh barrel - all leg with ginormous canons. Full size snug boots are too small for his hind canons! I'm only 5'2 and my leg nearly is at the bottom of his barrel haha. I think I'd have to go with full size travel boots - I really like the pattern.

Bah not another one .
Refusing to measure her, in my mind she is and will always be 15.2hh, I do not need to shatter that illusion quite yet :lol:...
I have a pair of full size fronts that I can rehome if that helps, then you just need to find a pair of full size hinds, good luck with that:lol:!
