My Drafts (and A Warmblood!)

I finally got some pictures of my full size horses today, so you all get to see them. Yay!

Goldie doing what she does best...being a vaulting horse! She's a 8 year old Belgian that stands 17.2hh.

Look at the pretty new halter...(I think you can guess who this is)

Best picture of the session...Oracle, my new WB working:

And then after he's done, he takes a moment to reflect on how strange we humans really are...

Hope you liked!

Thanks for the comments!

Catfish - At the withers, actually. You should see them with their head up...."Hi up there".

Wuv - Thanks! I love my guys! These pictures really don't do them justice, they were just quick pictures because you all haven't seen them yet. I'll get better ones when it's not a mud hole out there!

i did vaulting once. when i was 7, on a horse called penndragon. woah that was 17 years ago!!

i love big horses, bit nervy though, ever since i rode one when i was weeny little 14 year old, on a chunky 16.1hh WUSS of a horse who saw something flap on the outside of the ring i was in, next thing i know we're both on the opposite side of the ring and he's shaking. god damn wimp he was. shook me up though, no way i could do anything, i'm tiny now was even tinier then.

 

[Annastasia]

Awwww, I know a Pendragon who's a vaulting horse. Did you vault in the USA?

Thanks for the nice comments, everyone!
