New colt.....a rescue!

I'm SO excited! It's been a few days in the making, but all the final plans are now in place for the new rescue colt which will be transported from Texas to PA a week from Thursday! He's such a cute little fella and I think he'll be a perfect buddy to my Andalusian youngster. Ironically he is part Andalusian too! He's still extremely thin, has upward fixation of the patellas, and has never had human contact until this past week, but I have a gut feeling this is going to be great. Here's a pic of him. Be kind, he was only rescued a week ago from a terrible situation.

Now, I need help naming him.

He looks great to me....not thin at all, though could use a de-worming.

He looks like he holds a lot of promise. Good for you, I bet he turns out to be a real doll.

Thanks everyone. Yes, he has already been dewormed.....twice, but it's going to take a while. He actually is thin but I think his woolie coat kind of masks it.
I am told he is the healthiest looking of the bunch. The other poor kids are nothing but a rack of bones. So sad.
