I think he looks like a old style Morgan. I love this horse. ❤

I thought the same thing.

@aileen694 10 ай бұрын

francesn33 and maureenvenables, yes, I think Ace looks more like a Morgan than a Welsh Cob (I think they have a thicker, heavier conformation). But so interesting to speculate.)

Foundation Morgan

@cathiwim 7 ай бұрын

I have 2 Morgans, and he looks like the foundation Morgan. One of mine looks more like a Showtype(she was shown before becoming a brood mare)but her last 4 foals before i bought her were all the foundation type. She was also pregnant but I am a midwife, and had horse equipment. Lol! She had a beautiful filly who is now 14!

Wow... Ace the black surprise Hafi mix. He's a beauty 💕 "Haflinger attitude"... 😆 Thank goodness not all Haflingers have it. Mine back in Germany was super easy going, no such attitude at all 😊

Gorgeous looking lad😍 Looks quite a bit bigger than 14 hands on my screen. Love the curl in his tail😃 I had a pony with a nice curl in his mane and tail. He had a bit of hackney in him and always looked very smart and out-trot any other pony. Apparently he'd had a fight with metal fence standard and hurt his rear end as a youngster and couldn't canter properly on the left rein. Taught many kids in the neighbourhood to ride, hoon, jump and swim a horse though.

This colt is a spitting image of my filly, who is a rescued product of a mustang and a Thoroughbred.

He looks a lot like my TWH ‘Beam’ I just got 2 weeks ago. He’s doing okay but also having steering problems. He doesn’t want to turn right to go to the open field to ride. We just keep circling left to not go back into the barn. He just wants to go back to the barn area where we saddle up. Not sure if I’m using the correct bit or not, just using what the previous owner said to use. I’m learning a lot from your videos & appreciate what you teach us. Thanks Tim.

He seems to be using his feet pretty well. Tim, you have pointed me in so many right directions in just the last few Months. It has been such a blessing to have found you. Loved Lola’s treatment with the magna wave. Have you heard of Electro Equiscope?

Ace was a case of BOGO !

@tinaleitenberger2448 10 ай бұрын

Good morning Mr. Anderson. Some years ago I had a young horse with the same problem: going stiff, not really wanting to be steered, stumbling and falling down. This was caused by PSSM and MIM. Ace might have it too. His movement looks just the same as my horse´s. I hope this is not the case as PSSM/MIM cannot be healed and is a painful condition. Best wishes from Germany.

I would agree. I rescued a mare that was his age, and once I started riding her, I noticed this behavior. She folded up in the front once too. Mostly, it was the backend. I would highly recommend a 5 panel test with UC Davis. Mine had 3 of the 5, and by the end of her 4 year old year, we had to euthanize her due to increasing ataxia and aggressive behaviorwhich was very out of character for her. I will never own another horse without having a 5 panel on it after this experience. I hope it is not what is going on but sure looks familiar!

Thank you, Amanda. My gelding is 13 years old now and I have him still. He has the same issues as you describe, but not as severely. So I do the Masterson Method, triggerpoint massage and sidepass in hand to keep him as supple and painfree as possible. Sometimes he is aggressive, then depressive. At these times he must be separated from the herd as he is unpredictable in his behaviour due to pain, I think. It is a form of intensive care I am doing learning to read his body language and know exactly what is going on and where in his body he is in pain. He gets many supplements to help his muscles. For some years it looked as if I could ride him some day. But it was never more than 15 minutes at a walk. Then his muscles stiffen up. Hence the steering problem as it begins at the poll going all the way to his hind end. On a trail ride he fell out of the blue due to stiffening up. I couldn´t get out of the saddle and was trapped under him. This was dangerous and scary for us both. When it is bad, he can not bring his hind legs forward and walks like an old man, poor thing. This causes problems at the farrier, too, as he stiffens up standing for a longer period of time needing to give one hoof to be trimmed. Now we are at a stage where I must begin to think about giving him the last act of kindness. In Germany this is difficult as a vet must ensure that the horse has no more quality of life. To give him up for slaughter is no option for me and would be difficult as a horse is not allowed to have got medication for 6 months before slaughter. So we are in a kind of limbo.@richards8595

What a tough spot to be in I wish you all the best. It is such a difficult decision to make in the first place so if you have made that decision your vet should support it in my opinion. I worked closely with my vet for a year leading up to the end trying diet, massage, no work, hand walking, light exercise, nothing seemed to change the outcome unfortunately. I only had her 2 years but I grew to love her so much during that time😞.

Thats a good tip .. bit in mouth to gain feel yet yet use halter to guide... Looks like haflinger x Mogan

@patticriss2238 10 ай бұрын

I have two in treatment with it. One for an abcess and one for an apparent birth defect in his right stifle. If he does not get any relief from this treatment, he will retire. At 7. Heartbreaking. We’ve used it to treat one other severe abscess. I have my fingers crossed. Kind the same as magna wave but a different and higher? frequency I’m told.

patticriss, sorry to hear about your *Two* horses' problems. Hopefully, you will find solutions. Tim's videos are chock full of great advice and information!

Beautiful horse. Like his size. Not a pony but just a small horse. Don't think he's Welsh but possibly some Morgan. Really a nice horse.

Such a cutie! When I owned a horse, I didn't use a bit. I heard that bits hurt the inside of their mouth, but it does take training to use a bitless one.

@heidibujak5368 10 ай бұрын

He is cute. Robert is doing a good job. Could part of the steering issue be from being young? When our now 9 yr old was 3 or 4 he had similar issues but grew out of them as he matured.
