Description Recently someone on DA commented that Getz was very thin, so I thought I would put this picture up to show people what he looked like when we got him. This is him after he had his first bath in 7 years.

Getz endured neglect for 7 years at the hands of his old owners and he lived in a dirt paddock and was viciously and continually attacked by a nasty mare that he was kept with. That is why he is covered in all the black scars.

Getz is a thoroughbred, which is the greyhounds of the horse world. He is bred to be lean and thin and no matter how much I feed him he will never be as fat or as round as other horse breeds.

I love Getz very much and we make sure he is loved and fed well and he will be a part of our family until it's his time to go to heaven.

Whoever said Getz is skinny, clearly doesn't know their horses very well. You have done a great job with him

I think in your recent pictures he doesn't only look sound and well, he looks extremely happy in this thoroughbred-wildcat-way they have when they kick and run. You should not feel the need to justify yourself. He is fantastic looking.

It's wonderful that you have brought this horse back so well! I've been seeing his newer pictures and I can tell a big difference. ^^ He looks great now! I never once thought he was thin (he is in this picture which only proves how well yaw have done with him)
Some people just don't know what to look for in a healthy horse, so they judge wrong. I think Getz looks great in all your recent photos of him! Beautiful horse!
