Before/after 28 year old Rebel w/Cushings Disease

ejforrest · 05-10-2008, 07:48 AM

He has had Cushings since he was 7 and I have had to shave him every spring. BEFORE

AFTER

BEFORE

AFTER

Kicking Chief's butt. I put a used blanket on Rebel(used by a different horse) and Chief thought he could kick Rebels butt. NOT!(I did have to take the blanket off so Rebel didnt have to fight all night. Its now in the wash.) This might look like Chief is the one who is boss, Rebel is and has always been and here he kicked Chiefs butt, JD's Butt, and Appache's. Chief just wouldnt give up until Rebel got the best kick in-Children!

He's looking pretty darn good for 28. You do a nice clip job to.

If you seen it up close you would laugh

I do have to go back over him and fix the stripes

He is my love and I am hoping he keeps going until 35. He is such a great horse.

LOVE that snow time pic!

He is the reason I love Appaloosa's. I have been looking and looking for another one that rides like him and has his attitude. I dont think there is another one like him.
