ADORABLE!!! He does look fun!
He is so cute and so willing!
He’s been a total kick in the pants - he’s super smart and very sensible, really tries his best. I’ve started quite a few youngsters and I can’t recall one that was this naturally balanced from the start.
He’s come a long way from the ugly little neglected yak-ling I bought off craigslist for $500 two years ago.
Thank you! He looks like he has an enormous amount of potential!
So is he going to get his own thread, or are you going to add him to the title of this one? What a nice little dude.
Believe it or not, he has one it just didn’t get a huge amount of interest like Bo did, and there wasn’t a lot to update since he’s just been hanging out and growing the last two years. I should go dig it up and add the update. New Pony! Update: 4 months later
This one can stay Bo’s, with the odd detour here and there
I love his hairstyle.
Bo’s servant sent me some pix this morning, here is one:
I’m heading over to go take care of his feet this coming weekend, so I’ll be hands on but it looks like he may have filled back out a little bit. As you can see, he has no shortage of grass, space, or donks!
That pic is EPIC! That place looks like equine paradise! Bo, you have arrived.
Yay Bo! He looks great and he looks quite content.
Bo has donks and a Badonkadonk.
I wish my grass could be like that lol
He looks so happy! What a difference from day 1, huh?
I’m happy to report that Bo’s weight seems to be holding - he’s put a few pounds back on, although I’d still like to see more weight over his back. But beggars can’t be choosers, and he’s healthy with good friends so I’m happy.
Look at his forelock! It’s actually growing!
A tuft!! A tuft!!! Amazing what happens when no one eats it off!
that was poor Elmo, Bo was the one suspected of doing the chewing. Bo was not blessed with good hair genes
Woops! I had the forelock bandits mixed up! My gray horse missed those genes, too, despite good ones for mane and tail.
wait are my eyes deceiving or does his forelock look fuller. Is he sporting a comb forward or is nutrition = coat catching up?.
His forelock came in last spring too - pic from last March (2023):
Then it slowly thinned out back to a wisp as the weather got hotter - August 2023:
I do so hope that you have been able to take a big deep breath.
You have done everything right by this horse…your own horses…and yourself.
