Hello all! Not great at introductions  but here goes, I am up in Aberdeen with my two boys. Minstrel who is a 16.2hh (though the vet disputes this and thinks he is taller) clydesdale X ISH (more TB then ID though on his mothers side) I have had since he was 2 and he is now 13. He is a fantastic horse but sadly has arthritis down to the clydesdale/TB mix in his left fore. We are currently trying the lowest form of medicating him and hope it can be that way for a long time. This is he:  Ted who is currently a 17.1hh (and still growing) 4 year old clydesdale. He is fantastic. I love my heavies but until I had ridden one as much as I have now I must say I did not realise that they were so talented and lovely. Again I bought a 2 year old and this is his year to learn and then I hope we will do plenty of showing. We have done some intro dressage and he has done remarkably well with getting over 60% each time. My big dopey giant:  I do also have a wee shetland pony but he is out on loan to a fantastic family who love him to pieces  So thats about it!! Anything else just ask! And of course if you want more photos I am more then happy to oblige!! |
