Thursday night update - I fed Ace his dinner. He's very, very sweet. And sooooo happy in Chezzie's barn, warm and snug and eating his dinner. The nicest boy - anyone looking for a horse with good manners (in spite of wanting his dinner big time ) and just general niceness, this is a prospect.

I think danny is coming to visit at my barn next week. Apparently he is an angel and has been hacking all over the property and just generally being a good, easy boy. A real diamond in the rough. I bet ace will be the same.

Thanks for all the kind words, you guys....Ace and I both appreciate them. He is such a doll, so sweet and he has the kindest eye. We have a lot of work to do to get him back in good shape, but if he keeps eating with this level of enthusiasm he'll be hunter fat in no time!

My biggest concern at this point is his feet. He has two vertical cracks in his left front that go all the way up to the coronet band. I have a feeling my farrier is going to have a few choice words to say! But he brought Charlie's feet back from the brink of disaster, so I have faith.

I'll try to get some pictures later today. I just went out to the barn intending to take some, but he was napping and I didn't have the heart to get him up.

Ok, he can nap. And maybe by the time he wakes up the darn rain will stop!

I took a couple of pictures with my phone this afternoon...they aren't great, but at least you can see him. He looks pretty sad...

And his front feet....yes, those are cracks, you're not imagining things.

Oh, he looks sad indeed. In some ways, worse than Danny. I know he'll bloom for you, Chezzie!!! :hug:

Having seen both of them in the flesh, I think he is in worse shape than Danny was. He's very sweet, though, and seems appreciative of the food and attention.

Hopefully once he realizes the food and attention aren't going to stop, he'll come out of his shell a bit.

Well, he has ended up where he can become the horse he was always meant to be but hasn't had the chance to become.

I can't wait to see how he improves under your excellent care!!

My first TOC post- a newbie visiting from COTH! (oh my goodness I'm going into Smilie overload!)

Just wishing Ace and Champ the best of luck in their new homes! :clap:

I know Ace ended up in horsey heaven (if I do say so myself :P )

Can't wait to see how they do over the next few months.

:( Ace does look sad. Poor guy.

I'm sure you'll have him happy again in no time! He's definitely a cutie!

He's doing much better already, guys. Put on a little weight, but even better, he's much perkier and more interested in me and the other boys. He'll be right as rain in no time....
