Before and after pictures.

These two little, sorry things were given to my wife; full of distemper and just hours away from the rendering plant.

Morgan is under saddle and doing great.

Sorrel Quarterhorse got stolen by some idiot named Allan and is his "favorite".

Think I gotta get me a stepladder, 'cause that devil isn't done growning yet. :>)

G-O-O-D looking pony you got there...and what a buttt on him...strong looking critter. Do you know what bloodline??

No Sir,

This guy was a throw-away. Severly crippled at birth, starving to death and like I say, he was just packed to the brim with distemper. We didn't think either one would last the night.

Took some money and lots of care, but we've got him to the point now where he's just about ready to go to work.

Oh yeah, he's fat.

But, we've been lettin' him pretty much run wild for the past four years. He was born with an awful front end problem and I wanted him to build strength in those ankles.

Farrier has been really working on corrective trimming to straighten him out and he's really came along nicely.

He'll never be a performance animal, but he can fer darned sure help me check cows......

One of these days, I'll remember to take a picture of that Morgan. She's got some stretch to her also.

Not as big as the sorrel, but lots of growth to 'er.

He looks good Allan- and no shortage of feed over there from the looks of it! He'll make you a good cattle-checker for sure.
 
When I was a kid, dad saw a horse tied up in town, in the winter, skinny as a rail. Bought him off the guy for 25 bucks with a saddle. Hauled him home, had to feed him very carefully for several days, pulled him to his feet in the mornings when he had laid down. We thought we had a riding pony. Well, anyway, grew up to be about 1200 lbs. Dad had him gelded, my brother rode him a lot but he was tough, used a military jaw breaker bit to hold him, could out run all the neighbors horses hands down. Put a harness on him when one of the team went lame and dad planted corn with him. Put that saddle on though you better be ready to hang on.
 
As a Morgan owner let me caution you about letting them have too much grass. Laminitis! How much is too much depends on the animal and how aggressively they eat.
 
Better go and bale some more hay, more hungry ones to feed. Nothing like a fine looking horse. Well, next to red equipment that is.
 
Good job Allan. My wife and daughter took in 2 mini's that had been neglected - they sure came around with some care and attention (not from me tho)

Better be carefull about what you say. Haven't heard much from the glennster on his neighbor's sweet corn horse this summer - prolly closer to your place than the Howell's in Texas!
 
Nice looking gelding, love the four white socks. Would like to see some pics of the Morgan too. My wife has a 19 y.o. black Morgan mare. Great little horse, but definitely the boss of the herd. When my apaloosa mare gets "the look" from her, she has about 1/2 second to move before she gets her butt nipped. My appaloosa was a rescue horse that a local stable brought in. Very nice horse after she got back into shape.
