The First four pictures are on the first day. as you can see, he is badly beaten up and very skinny. He was taken from his original home, where he was born, and brought to a mans house for 1 or 2 weeks. In that time he starved Poco down to the bones, and allowed the other horses to beat up on him and bite him. His feet were also badly splayed and had never been trimmed (feet are supposed to be trimmed in the first week of life)
In the next three pictures, we had had him for a few weeks. We hadn't found the right farrier yet, so his feet had not been trimmed, only picked up and cleaned out. As you can see, he had gained alot of weight, and his wounds were healing nicely.
In the last two pictures, (taken just the other day) He has gained all the weight he needed to, we've had his feet trimmed and they are no longer splayed, and his wounds are completely gone. all within 3 1/2 months.
Now he is loved, being trained, and has a forever home, with the people he loves.
