This picture was taken when Umadio was only 1 year old. Even then he was very tall - 15.2
This picture was taken when Umadio had
just turned 2. He was 16.1 when it was taken
The angle of this shot was taken from too
high a vantage point, so Dio looks shorter than he truly is. It was taken
in early March before he had shed his winter coat
A nice head shot of Dio.
His conformation is exceptional, although
his hind end from this angle looks a little underdeveloped.
This is Dio just starting his work in the
round pen. This was only his 3rd time in the round pen w/ saddle and bridle
The same day as above, but at the canter
