While not home yet, Its just a matter of time, soon, very soon.. This big boy will be coming home to the farm.. Bruno is 16.2 and around 1500 pounds, he is nine, so the same age as Brandy, same age, same height, broke to ride.. He had everything on my list, other then not being a draft or draft cross breed, but he has the right height, the right size, the right sex, the right age, the right training.. and add in that he is so darn pretty to boot!
Just another Day on the Farm 
He is gorgeous!
Congrats! He’s a lucky horse.
What a handsome guy! You are both so fortunate.
Wow, that was fast; but he sure is a beaut!
So, if he’s that big, but not even partially a draft breed, then what IS he?
Paint, a big old Paint Gelding.
Ya, it kinda was but when even my hubby says, Go for it, that’s telling..
he is unpapered paint, so its possible that given his size, that maybe? there is a little something in the mix but he is being sold as a unregistered paint
So, is the horse biz like other Organisations where the offspring of “Registered” animals are sold as “pure bred, but unregistered” w/o papers?
Yup, yup..
Turns out I should have asked a bit more info, I knew they said unregistered but ask for more info on his parents (was trying to figure out why unregistered) and it turns out he is a paint/Friesian cross, that explains the size on him
Oh yeah, this is just SO appropriate!

Yeah, well you recall that question about registered / purebred, but non papered…
I HATE “sorta truths” and not-quite lies(liars)):
They had the most awesome little video of him doing his walk, trot, canter, trot, walk, whoa, but its a private facebook video so I can’t share it here, you will all just have to wait, till I can make my own.. but lets bond first and do some groundwork, and some basic ring work before we go there 🙂
He’s stunning!
