This is the horse I rescued. How is he? Does he look skinny or fat? I personally think he's still a bit thin but he's come a looong way.

Yes, it's the same horse. He looks browner in the first pic because that's his winter fur. He turns black in summer. Opinions please! Is he still too skinny?

Horse now:

Is this another one of those off topic threads where you ask us a personal opinion of something and how it looks and after we all try to be supportive, you admit to it being you?

If so, yer a fine looking horse.

Thx guys. No I'm not a horse, tea. :P
And yes, he was a racehorse. His dad was best in New Zealand. My horsey didn't like racing though so we got him. Great I also think hes a bit below average. He's getting fatter though! :D

With his style of breed, he is a little underweight. he has lower developed muscles in his chest, which means you need to ride him more. Otherwise it could lead to some health issues for the horse
FEEL LIKE A NERD :oops:

He's not broken in yet. I cannot ride him MORE because his training has to come on slowly. He was never ridden before, except by me. I train him every day. WHAT BREED IS HE THEN, Zeddifor? His chest I think is actually well formed, it looks smaller because he is standing in an angle, his forelegs are on a hill. The chest might be hidden behind his forelegs. Would u like another pic?

Remember, he's only five yrs old. And it takes ages to get a horse back to top condition :)

It looks the same in both pics.

But the after pic looks much nicer cause he looks clean and well kept.

But is still looks the same.

And was that you in the left of the first pic?

If so it explains a lot..your blonde lol j/k we love you.
