NEW HORSE!!!!!!

[spaniel]

Well, after 12 months of going on about it I have finally done it!!

Our new addition arrived late on friday after a whirlwind week of motorway driving, vettings and transporting.

He is very green but has such a nice attitude, is settling in very well and proving to be quite a character.

I will post more as the weeks go by (am worn out with the stress of it all just now) but he has an album of photos on my webshots account for those who would like to see him.

Album entitled Jack.

What breed is he? He is beautiful...

 

[Snowberry]

wow - he's lovely!!

How old is he? What are you doing with him??

 

[dieseldog]

He looks lovely

 

[spaniel]

He is full Irish Draught and 16.1 (so far!).

He is just seven but only been in work about 6 weeks (he was doing daddy duties before that). Im going to use this winter to tidy up his flatwork and hack him out. He has a powerful jump so its possible I may be airbourn next year!

We are going to see what he likes doing and concentrate on that!

 

[H's mum]

Congratulations Span! He's absolutely gorgeous - I'm so giddy for you!

[Happy Horse]

He is a seriously sexy beastie! I think I have missed the conversations about you getting another one but congratulations - he looks fab!

 

[spaniel]

Absolutely...I go for temperament every time and he is proving to be a gentleman.

[rrose]

[beaconhorse]

[truffles]

He's absolutely lovely! Such a rich dapply colour-yum!

You planning to do anything in particular with him?

 

[Sooty]

He is just gorgeous!!! I take it he is no longer entire? Has he finished growing do you think?

Pass Spaniel the crampons and rope...

 

[spaniel]

Thanks everyone....he is by Blue Rajah and is now without his 'plums'!!

I am having the mounting block extended as we speak Sooty!!

 

[LEC]

Lucky you, he has a very nice look about him.

 

[4whitesocks]

wow he's lovely - is he irish bred or bred in the UK (do you know who his Mum is?)
I'm a sucker for ID's and he really looks like a 'proper' ID (probably why he only recently had his bits stolen from him)

Congrats!!

 

[Enfys]

Lovely, lovely boy Spaniel, I hope you have many happy times together.

 

[allijudd]

he is very nice.......

good luck with him....

 

[henryhorn]

I really like this horse Spans, he looks not only handsome but honest and kind too.
I wish you lots of happiness with him.

 

[spaniel]

Thank you HH, I really liked him the moment I met him!

 

[Alibear]

Have full breeding details (bought from the breeder) and yes, definitely a very proper ID.

Congrats!!
