Gee, Aesthetics as the deciding factor? If the sickle hocks haven't
caused any problems so far (and it sounds like you've been doing very
well), and the horse is nice, polite, rate-able, comfortable?, a
buddy?--why in the world would you want to "change models"?

My Kasey is all angles, one hip slightly displaced, tender feet--but he's
a dear soul, a real character, not even that comfy to ride & I wouldn't
trade him in for the world! So we do our thing, slow & conservative, and
I end each ride with a smile.

Isn't that what it's all about?
