I chopped off his mane today, working on making it look pretty, but it’s a work in progress. He also got a bath.
Wow, he is really cute! Doing a happy dance for you!
What a handsome guy!
Congrats!
Congratulations for your horse!!

I am so excited I can barely stand it. I have been looking at horse ads and videos a couple of years now; and waiting until we got to the financial point of being able to afford a horse. We got there this past spring and the only hurdle I had to pass was convincing my husband we could handle it.
He agreed this past Sunday. I went to try a mare at a farm on Thursday, met and fell in love with a gelding at the same farm, had him vetted Friday and brought him home!
The boy needs groceries and lots of TLC, but he’s going to be cute cute cute. I will get better pictures later today after I bath him and trim his mane.
His name is Good Lil Train, barn name Train.

Long term plans include APHA All Around events. More immediate plans are just to get him carrying himself properly and moving through his back. The poor boy is a liittttle uncoordinated and has moments where he’s just not sure where to put his feet.
He also has no idea how to lunge on a line. He’s fine in the round pen as long as nothing is attached to him. So I’m working on that little by little.
Oh, and he has a FB page now.
Congratulations! This little cutie really landed in the clover! You are going to be a great owner. Keep us updated on your progress with him. What a super way to start the summer!
Happy for you. He’s cute!
So happy for you and for him! Congratulations to you both! :yes:
Congrats!!
So happy for the both of you!
CUTE!! Congrats - to both of you!
Congratulations! After a 30 plus year break, I bought my guy 6 years ago as my 50th birthday present to myself! You are going to have SO much fun!!
He’s ADORABLE, Silence…and such beautiful movement! You must be THRILLED!
