I purchased a "showjumping schoolmaster" in august last year , he is a 14.2 Connie. Sadly from day 1 I felt panicked and in October the vet confirmed he has spondylitis and osteo arthritis in his back and retired him from ridden work but said he was "good for life" with no medication. I would continue to pay for vets/insurance.
He is barefoot and lives out! He is a big personality and loves to be fussed over and is very clever ! He likes going for walks and trick training.
Vice wise- he can be very riggy if there is a mare in field or adjacent field, he gets very protective and will guard the mare by pacing the fence line and will charge if other horses try to get to her. He has had a blood test and is not a rig.
My circumstances have changed and although I love him I am sadly not in a position to keep him .
