Meet TheHorseFanatic (from the USA)  These two pictures are of my Tennessee Walker/Quarter Horse Cross, Diamond Rio. I bought Diamond about two years ago from a non-profit organization I had joined. I was riding him about a year and a half before I bought him. From the moment I saw him, I knew that no matter what, I would make that horse mine. Not "property", back then I didn't think I would ever buy him, but in a, I guess, spiritual sort of way. The woman who was the leader told me he had Navicular Syndrome, back then I had no idea what that was. The winter after I purchased him he was very sound, but he was beginning to become sore as Spring wore on. One day, I went out to go give him his daily grain and medication, and he was laying down. He was near death, and if I hadn't of come along, he would of not have gotten up. He was barely able to get up even with me tugging on him. He would of just laid down and died. Now, he is doing superbly. I compete in Western Pleasure as well as 4-H. I have two other horses, which are sound, but neither of them could ever take the place of Diamond.
