Weston - Towtruck - 06-14-2024 Fifteen months ago this guy was born. Look at him now!  He picks up all four feet for trimming, wears a fly mask, bathes, hard ties, ground drives with long reins, loads into a trailer, will back out of trailer, and will soon be a master of crossing wooden bridges.  He is no longer a baby in size.  Gun hobbies are sooooo much cheaper!! RE: Weston - srjdsmith - 06-14-2024 I don’t know if he was a bonus or a nasty surprise at first, but he turned into a real prize! RE: Weston - Longhair - 06-15-2024 😎 .....and still growing. Look at how butt-high he is! It will be another 10 months or so before the epiphysial growth plates in his legs close. RE: Weston - Towtruck - 06-15-2024 They think he will outgrow his mom, 14.3, and reach 15 hands. We all agree he will be a tank like she is. She is 1250 pounds and wide as a Mack truck in the front end....Weston is going to be impressive at 3 years old for sure. The trainers love working with him and say he is advanced in his training further than youngsters 6 to 8 months older than him that they work with. RE: Weston - Towtruck - 06-21-2024 Bridge master! RE: Weston - Towtruck - 07-19-2024 Weston passed another milestone today....and injured himself later in the day too.  He wore a saddle for the first time and was cool with it. Then later in the day he ran himself into a round steel gate post at full speed and laid himself open.....he broke the concrete around a three foot deep steel post!!! The marks are from a horse safe smooth gate latch......if hit hard enough nothing is horse safe.  He lives a roller coaster life and it's killing us! RE: Weston - MontanaLon - 07-20-2024 That wound isn't terrible. A buddies horse back into the pivot pin on a dumpster hard enough to go a couple inches into the ham. That was gnarly.
