Thanks everyone! Alot of you mentioned her feet, yes I know they are a problem obviously... She has quite the attitude and it doesnt matter how much she trusts me when the farrier comes she is a terd. So ya that is making fixing her hooves alot harder but I am doing alot of work with her.

she looks like a nice mare. i like her color and her build. she has a kind eye and seems to be relaxed and willing. i would expect her gaits to be comfortable but perhaps a bit short for a hunter but that should be no problem since she is not a classic hunter type anyway. given her hindquarter i would expect her to have a fari amount of power and should do well in both games and as a jumper within the limits of her size and build. perhaps a fine cross country mount as well if her temperment matches her looks. surely a nice trail horse. overall i would say you have the horse that many wish for. treat her well, she look's like a keeper.

She is overall a nice trail type horse. Her coloring is good. She is not a very feminine mare, looks like a gelding. She is thin legged, flat chested, too straight of a back and drops off in the rear-end. Her feet are a mess. Some of her conformation issues could be because she is compensating for the soreness in her feet. She is off in the front right. I would suggest getting a vet to x-ray that front right leg and get a really good farrier to work on her feet every 4-6 weeks or as he/she recommends.

Very nice healthy looking and well muscled. As a farrier she does look a little long in the toe and a little dry hoofed at the time but thats common for summer. She's just a tiny bit higher at the shoulder, a little more muscle on the top on the butt (point of hip to tail) would even her out beautifully. She has nice even blend of colors and a great personality in the photos.

she is very pretty, but its really hard to critique a horse based on pictures, especially if the horse is just standing there. I'm not saying that to be mean, but what kind of critique are you looking for? do you want it on her coloring, conformation, how she moves? (even harder to tell from pics!)
based on your pics, she looks like a total sweetheart, & you must love her very much. I think thats most important, don't you?

Her topline is realy good. Her bottom line has a little sag to it. If you would put a neck and throatlatch sweat on her it would give her a more feminine appearance. She has really soft eyes and a nice coat. Overall she appears to be balanced but her feet aren't too good.

Coloring is nice, but her stance appears from the photo to be somewhat offset as if she is favoring the right read forlock and her back appears symetrical, her eyes are good and clear, mail and til appear to be in excellent condition as does her skin.Her teeth are in good shape also.
And you have a lovely smile!

She looks good. The only criticism I have is that her head isn't a classic "babydoll" head like we like to see on mares, but other than that she looks great. She's got nice color for a paint, and her build looks better muscled than some. A good side-view shot is best, so you can look at length of pasterns and hips in perspective with shoulders, etc...the pic of her standing sideways by the gate with an all green background is really good. If she's as good to ride as she is to look at, you've got yourself a fine horse! Have fun.

I think she looks really good, and she is BEAUTIFUL, but her withers should make a gradual slope into her back, instead of being just straight down. Other than that and her feet, she looks good. I have a need to know where you came upon her. She is GORGEOUS!!!!!
Hope I helped!!
