Hey,

My horse has something which means he has no pigment in parts of his skin ( for him its around the eyes and a llittle bit on the nose lol) And I was wondering if this counts as a blemish? And would that mean that I couldnt/shouldnt do showing on him as he wont be placed? Sorry for the silly question but I have wondered a lot about it

Its not a blemish but unfortunately you may get some judges that place him lower than others because of it. At local level it shouldnt matter though. Showing is very subjective so you just have to give it a go and remember that if one judge doesnt like him another will love him!
 
it might sound silly, but if he is the horse in your siggie, then he is black on his face around his eyes ye.........

if so, and his lack of pigment is not irritable, MAKE UP!

second the make up, my friend had a bay hack who had appaloosa type pale areas around his eyes- black make up and no one would ever know.
