  1. no


  2. I would say probably not. Most horses are said to be done growing at 4 but a lot continue till age 6.

  3. horses are typically done growing once they hit five years old, so he is as tall as he will ever get.

  4. defenitly not- horses stop growing when theyre between the ages of 3 and four years old, enjoy your horse(:

  5. No, horses stop growing around 3-4

  6. nope

    the latest they grow is around five yeats

  7. no, he finished growing 3 years ago!

  8. not too much if he grows anymore at all.

  9. No, horses stop growing way before then, he is now an

    adult that is his full size

  10. no he wont, horses stop growing at the age of about 3 or 4.

  11. No he will not.

  12. nope sorry but he will stay that size have fun with him

  13. Probably not. They usually finish out around that age. Who knows though he may have a little left in him!

  14. nope.

  15. Nope i very mch doubt it,

    hores are more or less fully grown by the age of 5 allthough some dont stop growing till there about 7 but not by much at all :)

  16. Probably not, unless you quit trimming his feet.

    ;-)

  17. This question worries me.

    1: You clearly don't know much about this particular horse

    2: The question shows a distinct lack of knowledge about horses in general.

    If you don't know the answer to this question then you don't know enough to own a horse.

  18. Wish I could give a more original answer but I have to be a copycat so, once again NO. :-(
