This is Otto. He is the horse I am currently leasing (2005). I leased him last year too. Otto is an Oldenburg. He is about 16hh! Otto and I do not do too well in the show ring. He stands out a lot. He prances when he trots. We sometimes get the wrong leads when we canter, but we try our best and have fun. When I first started riding Otto, he was extremely underweight. His previous owners could not keep weight on him. My horseback riding teacher finaly got him fattened up. It was a lot of hard work! Otto is a spoiled horse and you have to treat him just right. He can't stay in a stall or he will loose weight. In the summer, he can't be in the sun too long. He loves the cold weather! He has to eat a lot of hay. Otto may be a very large horse, but he can be a big baby! He is scared of a lot of things. He shies at everything. He is a very loving horse who loves treats and has a cute personality. |
