totally weird legs

Postby Mischi » Tue Sep 21, 2010 11:10 am

Hi everyone!

I just thought I have to show you this horse, even though she's not a TB. I have never seen leg markings like this (or similar) before.

All four legs are like this and the white never touches the hoof. It looks as if she was wearing boots.

I hope my English is ok (I'm Swiss)

I will try to find out more about her, who her parents are and stuff like this. I only know that she's a 3 year old warmblood filly.

Here's another picture of her, showing her head. (My sister made the pics as the horse stands at the same stable her jumper does.)

She's just such a cutie, even though she's not a TB :wink:

SERIOUS, SERIOUS suppression. Surprising considering she's got a fair amount of white already. Interesting.

The dark bay TB mare Hear the Wish has the same kind of socks. I sold her a few years ago. Dont know where she got them and the one colt I got out of her was a solid bay, go figure LOL.

Her pedigree:

I guess the white is coming from her mother's side, since I actually know her mother's full-sister, who is a chestnut with four white legs and a blaze.
