Where is he? Anyone know if he's still training? And how did his tail get like that anyway?
Thanks

Hard to see in the pic, but it's like half of it has very short sleek hair.
Birth defect??
Anyway he was a pretty good runner. IS, I hope.

After looking at the photo, I thought that it looked like the tail was in a bag of some sort. I've seen similar things on show horses that were meant to protect the tail and keep it clean.

Hard to say just from the picture. Is this something strange that has been noted just once or is his tail always funky looking?

I must not be seeing what y'all are seeing. It just looks really short.

Strange tail indeed. Perhaps it was injured.

Looks like most of the hair got yanked out. Or chewed on.

The second pic makes it look like the tail-bone is fine....not a stump like poor old Sea Cadet. :)

He may be a tail-rubber....or have a companion goat! :wink:
