George Morris is an a$$h01e of the finest type. He may be able to ride, but he has no people skills what so ever. He also believes the color of the horse influences their athletic ability and that...

Libertyville usually has some pretty nice stuff at reasonable prices

yeah, but then it doesn't taste so good when you steal a bit for yourself when you're feeding:lol:

The advertising doesn't bother me all that much. But 3 years ago when I went to buy a new truck, I knew exactly what I wanted. I walked into the local dealership and spoke with a salesman- told him...

Flax and a curry comb
Repeat daily

Making sure everyone gets at least some alfalfa everyday and adding flax.
The other thing is looking at every horse individually. I have seven horses and 5 different feeds that I use. The only...

Good quality Alfalfa, TC Complete, Flax seed

I tried an OF Patriot, I think, a friend loaned me. It fit her nice, shapely TWH really well. It did NOT fit my narrow TWH for a second.

I have two Ortho-Flexes: a Patriot and a plain-jane dressage model. I LOFF them both and will never own anything but an Ortho-Flex if I can help it:)

I don't have any problem with slippage in any...

Thank you kindly dear little elf
I'm sure you've quite outdone yourself
My curosity will soon abate
As eagerly at the mailbox I'll wait

LOL!

I don't show anymore, but I think this proposal is a very good idea. We spend a lot of work hours tracking offspring and points at my job and it is a major PITA when people have shown a horse under...

Another vote for TC over Purina- actually I would feed TC over Buckeye as well. Will they feed TC Complete?

Sorry, but have to disagree with you OP. I am in the can't afford big cash outlay up front, but can definitely afford the upkeep. I actually just got another horse on Sunday. There was no way I could...

Another vote for Vita-Flex's Accel- My horses all seem to do amazingly well on it- All of my horses get it along with a biotin supplement (straight D-biotin, no other additives since they get it in...

Hmmm, I've tried the loose salt before too- but they don't touch it and usually I end up dumping it after a couple of months because it gets really scrungy (is that a word, lol!).

I am thinking about adding salt to my horses daily grain rations rather than giving them a salt block. Usually salt blocks turn into toys and are mostly wasted as they are rolled around the field...

See that's why I don't like 99% of dogs:D Total cat person here!

Anyway, I had a friend's dog do that to me getting ready to head out for a trail ride once. I second the vinegar- usually works...

I have a 3 horse slant GN w/ full dressing room-I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! and my horses do too- I've never had a problem with anyone not fitting ect. My trailer is really versatile. I can have three...

Every ride. Why? Because I have already had two bad accidents with my helmet on and if I hadn't been wearing it both times, I wouldn't be typing this right now. Nuff said.

I live in Maryland and our property backs up to a state park and a state forest area in PA.
Here are some pics from that:

I actually feed my horses added soy- I get extruded soy bean meal and add 1/4 to 1 cup per horse depending on what I'm doing with the horse. I'm really happy with it.
I say if your horses seem fine...

I have 4 horses at home and can only store at little over a month at a time. I would love to be able to keep more, but its just not feasible.

For beginners, yes, I teach heels down. However, with the more advanced students I do not. Here's why: Sitting at your computer, stretch your heels down and feel what it does to your calf muscles- It...

I dunno, I always thought it was kinda weird that asking someone how much something costs is so taboo. If someone asks, I tell them- I might however continue on to tell them its not the purchase...
