I'm looking at this horse for sale...Although I think she's STUNNING...why does her butt have that odd shape to the top? Is it maybe just the way she's standing? My eye keeps getting drawn to that =/ Thanks!

She's goose rumped. And kinda looks like she's built out of spare parts. No one thing on her is awful, but I don't feel like she fits together. Part of it could be the pictures, but I suspect you could do better for your money.

Ah, goose rumped! Thank you for the input...I know, she's SO thick! I don't think I'm going to chase this one though...I just can't get over the goose rump and the fact she's only 14.2 =[ But I do still think she's darling, and SO wide!!

For just a riding horse or to do slow work she'd work fine. But she doesn't look like she would have much speed. She also looks like she has a navel hernia.

Agree 100% on all the above.

She's super downhill. Granted, she is only four and she's got a few years of growth ahead of her but I doubt her front end will catch up to her butt. I personally don't like how much larger built her rear is than her front. Her neck is hella short too, and as others have said she does have a naval hernia.

Do qh grow up after 4? I thought it was mainly out. And so many of them are downhill.

Yes.. growth isn't restricted by breed. There are a lot of horses of all breeds that are downhill, it isn't exclusive to quarter horses.

My sister had a QH mare that grew until she turned 6. Her final height was 15.3 and after her 4 yr.old year she grew probably the last 2 inches.
