Metinicus

Hi all - New Vocations has recently posted a horse we had in the clinic and I thought by posting here he might get a few more looks!

He had a condylar fracture and was going to be euthanized - we did the surgery and he has been rehabbed and now he needs a home! His fracture did great and he should be sound for anything anyone wants to do with him...

The description is right on target - he acts like a tough guy, but he's really harmless!

OMG - they posted videos of him free-jumping and jumping under saddle. Too cute!

he is cute! ;D

Metinicus is still on their website and another horse we had is there too - Point to the Red. They were both sweet and should be sound for anything! :-)

Condylar fractures heal up GREAT!

Point to the Red is just beautiful, and very well bred!! Animaldoc, how is his temperament? Any particular vices you knew of? I'll write to NV about him...

MTA: I just read on Equineline he was a Ridgeling...wonder if he had the surgery? He sounds sweet though.

Point to the Red was a good guy - his description on NV website is on the mark. Friendly, mature for his age and had a good head on his shoulders. I've heard he's doing very well at NV.

We gelded him a few weeks after his fracture repair - I don't remember him being a cryptorchid, but I can look.
