New guy pics!

Here is a full body shot of the boy. He makes me look small. I can't wait till he sheds out.

:)

looks like there's probably a pretty sharp looking horse under all that! :D Can't wait to see pics once he's shed!

Awww, he has just the sweetest looking face. He looks like the type to always want to snuggle/rub up against you and follow you around.

Yes he loves to cuddle, but I'm not used to working that size horse yet. When he rubs my shoulder he catches me off balance and knocks me around. :)

LOL, my mom's Throughbred (ex racehorse) is huge, I am talking almost 18 hands. He is great for knocking me off balance. I can't imagine a couple more hundred lbs behind it. I prefer my mom's AQHA, she is just my size, just under 15. Then again I grew up with her for the most part.
Sierra is turning 29 this year and her arthritis is acting up really bad. I am terrified that mom is going to have to put her down soon. It has gotten to the point of no riding her at all.

Anyway... he is a beautiful boy, I hope you have many happy years with him. :D

I actually wanted a shire, but after handling him a couple days. WOO! He doesn't realize how big he is. Just barrels right thru or past whatever is in his way.

He's cute! He's got some really high withers.. I could see where he might have a bouncy trot. But trotting is not my favorite gait to ride anyway.. give me a rocking-chair canter over a trot anyday. I feel the shedding angst with Cuesta here.. she has that weird lightish deadish hair that your guy has on his belly too. I could shed-blade her for 2 hours straight and make no real progress it seems!
