Liver chestnut or silver dapple?

A few months ago I met my friend's horse she had bought in January. Horse's name is Teja and she's a Lithuanian Zemaitukas mare :). But one thing has bothered us since then. What's her actual coat colour? Is it a dark chestnut horse with flaxen hair or is it rather a silver dapple (bay?)... In her passport the colour given is chestnut but we have our doubts... Horse's owner herself says it's not possible to rule any of them out based on her knowledge and it got to her so badly she's even considering a DNA test.

She has darker hair roots and brighter endings which which indicates a silver dapple but she doesn't really have very visible dapples on her legs (admittedly, in winter brighter colour on her legs was more noticeable).

What do you think? :) Is there some other signs and characteristics we should be looking for?

This is the picture she sent me but, to be fair, you can also find videos with Teja here.

P. S. My friend is quite shy about posting this herself, even though she's making videos like the one above.

#horses - #Horse short strided in the front, new since 4 months ago

Horse short strided in the front, new since 4 months ago

I just picked up a new gelding yesterday. He's 13 and an appendix type. He is very short strided at the trot but normal at the walk and almost normal at the canter. He does trip more than normal too. I got him for free so I didn't get much info from the last owners. I did contact the owner before the one I got him from who sold him to them in February, and he said the horse was sound when he sold it to the last owners. The owners I got him from also said he reared on them once, and the old owner I talked to said he never even threatened anything like that. I don't think the old owner I found was lying, he seemed to be telling the truth and said he'd actually take the horse back if the short stridedness doesn't improve and I can't use him.

So my question is, what could have happened to this horse in the last 4 months that would make him so short strided? He's not head bobbing and it seems equal going both directions. After cantering east direction and going back to a trot he seems to lengthen his stride a bit, but is still very short strided. I got him as a replacement for a gelding who is out to pasture for a year or so from a ligament injury and I need to keep it as inexpensive as possible so I'm trying to not have the vet out if possible. Originally I thought navicular or bad arthritis, but if he wasn't this way in February that's hard to imagine. Maybe a shoulder on injury or soreness on both sides? He's wearing front shoes. Is there any cause I'm not thinking of?

Thanks!

#horses - #Need help with lease horse

Need help with lease horse

Hey everyone. So I've started a free lease with a horse in my local area and I am having a couple issues. The woman who owns the horse doesn't have enough time for her so she wanted someone to look after her (where I come in), however before she found me, this poor horse was more or less left to be wild in a paddock with three other horses. Of course, she has grown very attached to them.

Now I am not an experienced horse person. I've been riding since I was 7 (I'm 19 now) but that's about it. The lady makes her seem like you could just hop up on her and is very keen for me to ride her. But judging the horse on her behaviour, I wouldn't feel safe.

I've read up a bit online about a herd bound horse and I've separated her from the other horses. She can still see them though, but there is nowhere else to put her. This was 3 days ago and she was pacing up and down the fence, trying to get out. I've been to see her everyday, and I thought she was calming down, but she is still pacing the fence.

Today, I tried to get her out of the paddock and take her for a walk so she gets some sort of exercise, and she wasn't having it. She was pulling at the rope, pushing me out of the way, standing on my toes, etc. She has no manners, or respect for me. She is still very determined to get to her friends.

I'm not sure what to do. The woman who owns her is barely involved. I've texted her about the horse being herd bound and my attempts to fix it by putting her in another paddock and her opinion, but she just responds with "Sound gd". I'm at a loss at what to do. The owner just doesn't seem to care and I'm not experienced enough for this. I want to help this horse, but I really don't know what to do. If anyone had any suggestions, I would really appreciate it. Thanks for listing to me ramble.

TLDR: horse is acting up and I'm not experienced enough to deal with it on my own. Owner doesn't care.

MLP is seriously one of the things keeping me out of the pit of depression that I find it all too easy to fall into.

When I'm upset, there's a song for like ANY emotion. And all the characters are lovely and relatable. And they live in an innocent and soothing yet creative and exciting at times world. It inspired me to make my own character (my ponysona) which I think really brings my personality to life. And I love drawing them. They're so cute, I especially love their eyes. Sorry for gushing but I just really appreciate this show and I wanted to share that with a place that understands.

#horses - #1/2 ton 2WD truck (Ford F100) ok for tractoring a horse?

1/2 ton 2WD truck (Ford F100) ok for tractoring a horse?

Hey, I've been riding for 5 years, I have been renting a horse for the last 16 months but in 2 months when my lease on her is up his owner is moving to California and taking her. I am pretty torn up about it and never want to be in this situation again, so I think I am ready to buy my own horse.

I think it's really important that if you own a horse you need a truck to tractor it yourself, I have a 64 El Camino which while technically a truck can't really tow anything so I am selling it and looking for something a little more heavy duty. In my immediate area there are two trucks that I like for sale, one is a 1965 Ford F100 and the other is a 1971 Chevy C20, the Ford is in better physical shape, has a better engine, it has a stick shift which is better for hauling things and it's $2500 cheaper, they're both 2WD. If it isn't obvious I prefer the Ford lol but I think that I would be happy with either. The issue is that the F100 is a 1/2 truck and the C20 is a 3/4 ton truck, I know that 3/4t is fine for tractoring a single horse because half of my stable seems to own an F250, but idk about 1/2t?

Yes yes I know the issues and concerns with older trucks but classic cars are what I like and even though I am happy to switch out my El Camino for a real truck, I am not going to give up an iconic car that I really love and enjoy for a modern vehicle that I am not fond of ya know.

I'm not a big guy and I am not planning on getting a huge horse, 13-15 hands is ideal, a little smaller is also fine but I would look silly on a tiny pony and have trouble with a giant draught horse.

Thanks everyone
