SkiBum. He comes home tomorrow. He is 3yrs old, acts like a 10yr old, he is 16.2h. I just have this video but more pictures tomorrow. He raced once and was dead last, he does have an OCD, hence my other post. I talked to the vet and we will be doing his surgery in a few months, he is completely sound now and cleared for low level stuff. We will do supplements and he'll just hang out and flat for a while so they get to know each other. I am taking a chance on him because of his mind, he is one cool guy! www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Tsw9gA2kM5U

Pam, she trains all her babies that way, on the buckle and with voice commands. All super calm. She has another gelding still racing but she said he is going to make a great childrens hunter, we met him and he is mr. personality.

That is really awesome - looks like you got a great new family member! He is so pretty in his pics. :-)

Thanks!
He had an awesome time running and running yesterday. Waiting until tonight for Nicole to put new pics on, so I will be adding more, soory for the overload but he is just too cute.
Nothing set in stone yet but she likes Marty and Herbie. I thought Herbie the Love Bug would be a great show name but she wants to keep his JC name for showing.

Congrats! I actually love his name. Skibum. No need for a barn name! Was kinda thinking the same think. Though I suppose you could call him 'Bra' or 'Dude'
