Meet my small but mighty steed! This is Eddie. He is a 10.2hh Shetland pony Gelding. He is somewhere around 16. This along has done everything, Speed, Eventing, Halter, Fair, Liberty, Jumping is still his favorite though. Sorry for the lighting, just snapped it well he was eating. He looks incredibly camped under here, and he might be, but it's definitely not that bad, lol. |

This is my Off Track Appendix, meaning he was racing bred. He is fourteen years young and we do a mix of eventing and dressage, but right now he's just a fat winter trail pony (this is a summer pic from when he was looking a bit fancier). Anyway, let me know what you think! Bonus points if you have any ideas as to what the heck his markings are; he isn't appy and they seem too large and patchy to be birdcatcher spots :?
His neck is a bit weak, to improve that you can do plenty of trotting on a loose rein( builds up the neck muscle). Other than that he's nice |

Alright! So these pictures are completely horrible and I will be trying to get different pictures tomorrow or the next day, but this is what I have for now! I also have a tip for anyone trying to take conformation pictures, I would suggest not switching the pasture your psychotic pony is in right before you try to take your pictures XD My pony was running like a maniac and making my horses crazy XD #1. Starbuck, Starbuck is a 14.1, 21 year old Mustang Mare. She is the sweetest thing, if you want her to run she will, but she is perfect for children of any ages, my 4 year old nephew will ride her. #2. Doc, Doc is a 14.2, 25 year old Quarter Horse Gelding. I got him about a year ago when he was 24 from a neglect situation, he was incredibly skinny but we have gotten him up to a decent weight and he is holding it well so far. He is super sweet and his favorite thing to do is have me lead him around with my 2 year old nephew on him. #3. Novak, Novak is a 14.2, 12 year old Quarter Horse Gelding. He was used as a roper with his previous owner, since I got him he is a trail horse and my main drill team horse. (The first picture makes his butt look very high, but it is not that bad XD the picture made it worse.) |

I have three that if someone could do them?
My first horse is Nova, he's a quarter horse gelding with a history in ranching but now we use him for trail. He's about 20-21 and a chestnut. 15hh - Second is Jack. Jack is a QH mix. He has a history in dressage and western games but currently does small town shows and jumping. He's about 17 and I haven't measured his height. I'd guess about 15 or 15.1? - My third horse is Merlin. We know he has doesn't have great conformation but I'd like to knw just what his conformation is as I'm not great at judging. He's a complete mix of breeds with what we believe to be TB, perch and appy. He's over 17 and does jumping and trails. 15.3-16hh he's in between the two. He's incredibly hard to make stand still or take nice pictures of so sorry in advance for the chopped off head If it isn't enough for Merlin that's a-okay. |

You need better pictures for us to judge. Your horses are either moving, on uneven ground or have tack. |

I dont have a proper conformation shot of him, I will likely try to get one tomorrow. King Gooseberry Blue or "Zed". Bred for cutting/sorting/ranch work. 2002 AQHA gelding out of Hancock. I know he ties in at the neck weird, maybe a bit ewe-necked, but I'd like other input.
I've got a gelding out of Hancock lines. Not sure I would get the line again though. Too goofyish for me. Might just be mine though. Would be a perfect trail companion however. |

Timbie, he's a good looking horse! First I notice, he looks high withered and maybe slightly ewe-necked. Ewe-necked horses can be helped through neck stretching and improving upon their upper neck muscles. He's got mid-lengthed back, shorter-necked. I'm really liking his underline and his topline is looking pretty good too! I agree with him being goose-rumped, but his shoulder angle is nice. His pasterns do look a bit upright to me and his hooves are a bit long in the fronts. His legs look straight, maybe post-legged in the back. He's slightly camped out in the hind end as well. He has even length of the back and shoulder, but his kind end is shorter than both. This does however, help give them power in their back end (as far as I get from my readings XD). He seems well balanced and thick boned. I think he could have some very good muscling after building it back up. He looks like a very good boy! ^^ |

HMH, he's so adorable! I'll at least give you what I can about him, his hind end is extremely hard to read because how turned he is. His shoulder looks incredibly steep (might be because of his stance) and his back is much longer than his underline making him weaker in the back. He looks slightly over at the knees and appears camped under at the back end (but may just be the way he is standing again). That's about as far as I'm able to go because it's very hard to see where he ties in, his butt and everything. |
