I just wonder if you are thinking of the same Traveller! He is a TANK. But then you are so used to icelandics... and Tivar, oh my, those legs! I was looking at Nasi today standing beside Tivar and his little legs looked so tiny... I think Traveller is exactly 14hh. measured by a stick with a level on it somewhere we were off to one time. Him and Stonewall are cousins you know. Stonewalls mom was 17hh and his dad was 14hh and stonewall is 15hh. Travellers mom was 14.2 and his dad was 14hh i think. But his mom is a tank and his dad is more built like stonewall... Traveller looks very tall and lean in that pic cause he was nearly dehydrated, shame on me/us! He went to urinate and only a dribble came out and he kept straining. I gave him electrolytes yesterday and today and he is still dehydrated a little but drinking constantly! his urine is clear now and not dark... also he looks tall cause he was so INTERESTED in everything :) My husband had just brought him back from the washrack (believe it or not my husband thinks he had rinsed him nice and clean oh brother) and he was just in a high state of alert staring at all the horses just about 20 feet away lining up for the after ride wash off.
