well monty is getting more forward going by the day.....think i was forgettin just how long it had been since he was in full work. so today in the school while doing some wee jumps loose schooling....of his own accord......HE CANTERED MORE THAN ONCE.......as soon as he was asked after that he straight into a loverly canter!! so pleased!!!!

here's a pic of him a couple of weeks before i bought him

and this is him now...does he look better?? he's gone up a few girth holes i feel his neck is alot smaller and generally feels narrower to ride. if anything i think he's toned right up. what do u think??

comments welcome.....not too harsh we're working really hard to slim him down

AW what a hairy hound! He is really beautiful I love this kind of horse. He looked a bit over hairy! Could he see out of that lot!!??!!

What are you going to do with him?

He does look a lot tidier. But a stunner.

Showing hopefully, a wee bit of everything but we're also now goin to be doin endurance with a friend at the start of next year!! He's a very hairy boy....he get put in a runnin plait a lot for long hacks, and a wee plait so he can see he he!!

Don't be slimming him down too much, he looks lovely and chunky!!
