Young horses not making or overshooting the height you want...

He does look so similar to my boy. I think that Prince will hopefully stop looking like a gawky youngster when he's six. Horse people always think that he's a year or two younger than he actually is. I'm sure that it's the short spine and long legs that deceives them.

our arab mare [part spanish part crabbet part polish grew and grew. When she was 8 and winter came I got out her rugs to find them all too small and she had to have a new wardrobe of equestrian winter coats bought!

Nooooooooo......... if he grows till he's 8, he might get over 16hh.

Felixs bruvver, Spud, grew till he was 8. He was gelded late though, so we're hoping Felix is getting his growing out of the way sooner.

RE the liverpool cream, are you having to get the vet to apply it, or are you allowed to do it yourself? I was chatting to someone at the vets the other day and they said that they had to have the vet out for each application.

I hope it sorts the sarcoid anyway.

Yes the vet has to apply it as its cytotoxic, he has to have four applications. At the moment it bothers me more than it bothers him, its like a grape just between his front legs on his chest just above the top of his legs.
