Hi Linda, I agree, time will improve things. Fredlet was looking better,
well, less bad anyway, this morning, so I measured him. He's only
downhill by 1" now, so this just has to be about growthiness. I found a

You guys are really great. :)
15 hands is what my "magic string test" tells me. I take a piece of

What a great idea! I actually had been thinking of doing just that with
with one of my horse who is just too darned tall (16hh) for me to mount
from the ground, which is not so good when you're out on the trail and you
just have to get off fo

Kate, if you're worried he may get too tall for you, try some trick training
and train him to lay or kneel down for you to mount! Fun things to do with
him before you train him to ride. Go to Allen Pogue's website for the
DVD's, great i

Kate, how tall is your boy expected to be? My 17 2 1/2 Trakehner was the
gawkiest and most embarrassing creature until he was about six. He usually

next. Huge head

Thanks for your nice, "hang in there" messages!! A 15.2h Fjord in
Alaska! Who had body parts growing one-at-a-time! A pretty head that
was 2 sizes too big for a while. One day the neck was there, the next
week there was no neck! Narro

Yes, indeed: 3 hours, 3 days, 3 months and their 3rd birthday they

My big gelding BJorken, is 15-2hh and he didn't stop growing until 8 years
old. His dam, Stella, has a beautiful head, somewhat dished, not too big,
and when he was a baby he had a head just like hers, . Then about 2 1/2 I

I had always heard the saying "they only look good at 3 days, 3 months and 3
years." But I did have one fast growing colt (warmblood) who reached 17 hands
and he didn't really have all his peices pulled together until he was almost 5.
