Some updated photos of Punk

thumpersgirl · 09-04-2008, 11:46 AM

My 'baby' is growing up quite quickly! I can't believe he turned 3 in May.

I got Punk (then named Josh) as a Christmas gift from my hubby in December of 2006. Punk was 1-1/2 years old and had all his ground work done. We kept up the ground work for a year and did saddle him and sit on him last year but he started actual training this year. He may have been able to take it last year but I made the call to let him grow another year. I'm in no rush with him.

My brother rides him for the most part. Though I did climb up there last night and ride him for a bit. He's a quick learner and a love bug to boot.

He is looking good - so relaxed and quiet.. what a handsome boy!

Punk is handsome.

He looks like a big ole teddybear.Very sweet boy.

I love his name! He is a handsome boy

Thanks guys!

He really is so mellow. No bucks and he only tried to rear once (not with a rider). His registered name is 'A Chance of War' and I couldn't come up with a spin from that so we started calling him Punk. Josh would have worked but that's my brother's name and it got too confusing.

He's beautiful! And he seems to have taken to the saddle quite well.

Aw what a cutie-why is his name punk?

thumpersgirl · 09-04-2008, 12:14 PM

Thanks guys.

Sherry, I think we were posting at the same time. My above post explains it.

Basically, I couldn't come up with a good name for him and Dad kept calling him Punk so it stuck.

Thank you. We think so too but then again, I don't think my opinion counts as he's the 'baby'.

He is gorgeous! He looks really level-headed, too, for such a young'un!

He is very level headed. I also have one of his 1/2 brothers (same sire) and he's the total opposite. I wouldn't have dreamed of riding Tuffy at all at 3 years old. Heck, he's 8 now and I still wonder about him sometimes.

He is quite the looker!! I love the blue eye also.
