    wellll - more than one way to skin a cat. If he accepts the sponge do that. My ISH likes to be sprayed with a fine spray. You could use a wet towel over him that will take the heat out....my own...

    I'd include magnesium for stiffening muscles and grumpiness. Seems to help
    and cannot hurt in normal quantities.

    That is why it is good to do a change of trainers, or do a clinic, every now and then - a different set of eyes, a different way of saying things, a different emphasis on a certain point. So when a...

    I'd like to know who the horse-half of that mix was.

    Fanfayre will chime in - she's the septic specialist here....in the PNW area.

    That is a GM classic to be filed away.

    That is why I love man. He knows just how to handle every horse instinctively. My other horse hero would do the same thing, just keep repeating the...

    I'd say your horse appears fine, there are horses around, he is not showing stress.

    However, I'm firmly of the belief that horses need hair to hair contact
    rather than being separated if that is...

    Back then I named my big, black horse in respect to that act of terrorism - "Knightsbridge" which is where the blast happened.

    I used copies of Horse and Hound to teach Pony Clubbers about style -
    The jumpers had the flailing leg, they don't have show hunters there, and it was the eventers who had the 'form to function'...

    Equestrian Factory Outlet (in Canada) sells the muck boots linked above for far less money than that. I have had a couple of pairs and they are - shall I say - slower to absorb the odors. They are...
