Hi all

This is my 2 year old traditional gypsy cob.

what do you all think? Be nice, he means a lot to me and is my pride and joy!

Has he got a goose rump? If so how can i make this not so bad, if at all?

Thank you :)

he is lovely....how big is he going to be? I wouldn't worry about his shape at this age, he looks very well, but if the last pic is recent he doesn't need any more weight . he has got a very cute face ....
 
im totally smitten and in love with him! The last pic is feb time, the show ones are very recently as in a few weeks ago, so hes lost a bit of weight since the last pic as dont want him too fat! im not sure, he was rescued so not sure about his parents, his withers are at 13.3/14hh but he is bum high, not entirely sure really, hes in 6ft3 rugs!!
 
He's lovely, after highlands Trads are my 2nd love! Like him a lot , nice stamp, pretty boy! Are you off to TOYS in September?

Thank you i do love him a lot! I might do if i can get a lift down there, as you can see my grandad in the top pic is quite an old chap and gets stressed towing far, hes 75 now and dont want him to get too stressed out or put him off as he does a lot for me!

Yes Hetsmum, its surprising but his chest takes up a lot of the rug, he looks funny sometimes because they go past his knees but fit good in the length!x

With great difficulty! I've never had a horse with grey so theres lots of tears of frustration and stress when i bring him out his stable before a show! haha! thank you :D

ah wow thank you, hes my little bargain pony! i bought him unseen from london, travelled near enough 4 hours to collect him, dont really know what i was thinking but i dont regret it at all! all i had seen was pictures and videos! i do feel exceptionally lucky!
 
He's a really handsome lad. All credit to you. Lovely conformation.

Cobs like him deserve to be loved, the size of their hearts matches the size of their bums :)
 
Your cobs lovely. What a great Grandad you have. I bet he loves being involved with your cob. Totally understand that he would n't want to drive long distances. Good luck with your next show.x
 
TOYS is still far but may be able to find someone to travel with maybe :)

He'd never travelled much before I had him, he still has sea legs bless him so we're just practicing locally for now, although I have got him booked in at a county show! Eek!

He's got a heart of gold! Hes still nervous around new people especially men but now he knows me, my partner and grandad he won't leave us alone!

Rosie-ellie I will pm you my secrets ;)

The picture of him as champion was his first ever time out! And my first champion sash! I cried!

He's gorgeous - I really jealous! No I don't think he has a goose rump he is just bum high and it time will muscle up. I had a fell that looked exactly like that at 2 and by the time he was 5 he had a backend to die for.

Loads of people ask for box shares so you never know!
 
Lovely looking lad, and from looking at those red rosettes the judges think so too. I do not think he has a goose rump, it will round out when he develops muscle. Hope you continue to have fun with him.
