Notice they have made A LOT progress with Boogie, AKA Clipper, in the last few weeks.
It won't take long for him to be a complete pocket pony!

He certainly is past the uncatchable phase! He looks great!

Whoa! We need an update! Last we heard this horse was not only uncatchable but showing signs of aggression. Obviously, things have improved dramatically! Details, details!

Hi, it's me, Heidi. Progress was sort of an overnight thing. Husband decided to rope Clipper in his pen and took a yearling percheron filly in with him, thought she would calm him down.
He now gives to pressure quite well and is touchable, has had the tangles in his mane combed out and given his first West Nile injection.

Got a few more here. He had a bath and fly spray this weekend. Fought it a bit at first but then settled down nicely. He has also been taken for walks outside his pen on the lead and does very well for the most part. pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/heidigrex/album?.dir=/be0fscd&.src=ph&.tok=phsOTYFBzgRZeXhhDoug plans to sell this horse, did not give a $$ but minimal I imagine. Good home only! PM me or at heidigrex@yahoo.com, subject line "Clipper" Heidi

He looks great, is he young? or just a little guy? or maybe a huge guy in the picture?

He is all of the above.
Doug is a big guy. We don't know is age, but I would guess 3-4 years old. Clipper (Boogie) is probably 14.2 maybe 14.3.
I'll tell you, he sure looked bigger when he was out running from us in that field.

Clipper is not a large horse. He also while much improved weight wise has a ways to go, is still quite bony. While he is now handleable, he is not yet to the point of particularly liking people, but if you have apples or carrots, he is there! Also as he has not been handled until just recently, you have his total undivided attention when you do work with him, which might be a good point for a knowledgeable person to pick him up as a project horse.
The people we got him from thought he was 2 - I don't know based on what. He could be more around what Shirelover said above. I do believe he is young though.
For size reference in the pictures, Doug is a big guy, 6 foot 2 or 3 inches tall.

he is adorable. If I needed another young horse, I would take him in a heart beat. His color is exactly what I have been looking for...
