| Just curious, why do so many conformation pics have the horse stretched out like he is getting ready to p**? They look rather unnatural to my eye. |

Well, normally I'd have him set up square, like in his western classes, but I show him primarily in Gaited halter classes and for some strange reason they have to stand stretched like this. |

| Hoopki, The name of the stance Sunny is in is called "parked" or "parked out" It is the preferred conformation stance for Tennessee Walking Horses or Spotted Saddle Horses. |
