Guinness Started Under Saddle Pic's

1rish · 10-12-2005, 02:16 PM

Hubby came home this evening and caught pictures of me riding Guinness for the first time. He did really well. As you can see I was having to urge him forward. He kept stopping and looking at me like, "shouldn't you be behind me or something?"
Enjoy.

Oh he's beautiful! What's he crossed with and how tall is he right now?

1rish · 10-12-2005, 02:24 PM

Thank you! I am partial to him. He's the barn "puppy dog" LOL

He's a Shire/TB, He looks a lot taller than he is. Last time I taped him he was 16.1 He is string testing out at 17.2, so I am hoping he will hit 17 when he's full grown.
He's really pretty when he's not all sun bleached, unfortunately he didn't climatize to the humidity this summer and the sweat just ruined his coat

=(

Oh, how nice. He looks so sweet. Glad to hear the first ride went so well.

He is a stunner! Have fun with him, he has lots of potential! He is really gorgeous (or should I say handsome?)

Easy going does not even begin to describe my young man LOL! We have actually tried to make him act out with firecrackers, tarps, you name it. He has been exposed to so much from such a young age that nothing bothers him. The first time I asked him to walk over a mattress he yawned and acted like he wanted to lay down on it and sleep. Ha ha ha.

Gotta love those draught horses.
