Nearly 2yrs on...

[Marchogaeth]

^ Above is Pepper a week or so after I bought him...

I'm just so proud of my boy! In over a year he's come on so much so he's nearly unrecognisable!! I bought Pepper as a 13y/o because he is clever, he never fails to make me smile and knew him before hand, I knew there'd be no nasty surprises around the corner!
Having said this I also knew he wasn't perfect, stubborn, lazy, ridiculously nappy, naughty and any form of schooling was none existent!
I'm not saying he's perfect now, (if there is such a thing!) but I'm proud that we've got this far and that we're still improving all the time! I won't carry in boring you, they say a picture speaks a thousand words so please take a look!
They're exactly what you make them, no more, no less.
Pointless post really, I just wanted to share my beautiful pony with you all!!😉
I love what we've archived despite few believing we would, any horse can improve at any point in there lives. My amazing boy!

...and this is Pepper now!!

Schooling progress!❤️

...and he learnt to Jump!!!

Wow! That is some transformation! Well done you; I wouldn't have thought it possible to restore so much topline and tone in an older horse. Congratulations, you have done a very great thing.

 

[_Annie_]

That's wonderful! He looks amazing :-D

 

[WelshD]

Wow what an odd shape he was! incredible that the shape ever came right, well done!

 

[The Fuzzy Furry]

All credit to you OP, big transformation

 

[Exploding Chestnuts]

Well done you, it is obvious he appreciates it, which is above and beyond the norm [for a horse]

 

[Shady]

[Peregrine Falcon]

OMG, what a huge difference. He's a credit to your hard work.

 

[SatansLittleHelper]

Wow...awesome transformation! ! 😊😊😊

 

[AdorableAlice]

Without the socks to identify him I would not have believed that is the same pony. Wow, well done.

 

[oldie48]

I can hardly believe he's the same pony! You have done the most fantastic job on him, he's so lucky to have found you.

 

[Darkwater]

He looks incredible, the transformation is amazing. He is very lucky to have found you

 

[ycbm]

Well that's a new one on me! Before you posted this, I would have sworn blind that it was impossible to fix a sway back like that. Well done you, it is exceptional what you have achieved.

Without the socks to identify him I would not have believed that is the same pony. Wow, well done.

Above plus I am sure you have put in a ringer like BGT dog. You have done the most incredible job he looks great.

 

[DD265]

Wow incredible! How did you do it? And 2 years seems like such a short period of time for such an amazing change - I wouldn't have thought it were possible to recover a horse from that topline.

 

[Jules_F]

He looks incredible. Well done

 

[wren123]

Wow, just wow!

 

[FfionWinnie]

Wow! That is some transformation! Well done you; I wouldn't have thought it possible to restore so much topline and tone in an older horse. Congratulations, you have done a very great thing.

My thoughts exactly. Wouldn't have believed that first pic could become what you have now OP. Very well done.

 

[Clodagh]

Well WOW!

 

[Spot_the_Risk]

Amazing. From the first photo I would have added 15 years to his age (and the older ridden picture too), your horse now looks fabulous, all credit to you!

 

[Bluedaisys]

Wow, as everyone else says what a great transformation!

 

[kathantoinette]

Gosh! What a transformation. Would never thought that possible. Huge well done you.

 

[tiggipop]

fabulous.... I too did a double check re the socks as I couldn't believe it was same pony.. well done... amazing & show what a lot of love and tlc can do for a pony x

 

[SecretAgentBilly]

That's an amazing difference, honestly looks like a different pony! What a super job you've done with him.

 

[Red-1]

Fantastic to see how love and hard work has paid off. One lucky pony!

 

[pippixox]

i have just had to come back and look at it again as it is such a stunning transformation!!! wow wow wow! proof hard work can pay off

 

[Leo Walker]

well done. That is nothing short of amazing!

 

[alainax]

Glad to hear he is still doing well! I remember the thread you posted with the transformation pics a few months ago, the difference stuck in my mind!
