Very true. Many times it's not the amount, but the ability to have the stall empty that seals the deal.

I have bought several off the track for 1K with the promise to move them immediately.

I have used a slow-feed hay net, but it's difficult to split a flake between two, and if I put it in one, Julio hogs the whole thing. Might be worth another try, though.

Stephie is fabulous--she was at Pegasus when I was there back in the 80s.

My two mini donks have been living in the dry lot this spring and splitting a flake of grass hay between them morning and night. Their weight is now just about perfect, but they are bored to tears...

Does your tractor have an "arm" that allows you to raise and lower the deck? My John Deere GT requires you to raise the deck, then turn a knob to whatever inch setting you want. I just leave it up to...

One of my good friends is a boarded veterinary toxicologist (and a card-carrying member of PETA--we sort of agree to disagree about certain things). He worked at the ASPCA poison control center for...

I had a young unraced TB who was a witch to deal with at home. She'd make up stuff to spook at, pin her ears, swish her tail and make faces at the other horses in the ring. Take her to a show and she...

I tried to post about this fabulous article the other day, but COTH was having technical difficulties, so I gave up. I knew most of the story about Valor and Pam, but was absolutely tickled pink to...

You never know. He could be a Tiznow or Curlin. Or he could be just a late-developing and useful allowance horse. Enjoy him for what he is.

When I was younger, I used to respond to catcalls by looking the offenders dead in the eye with a "I might consider it" look, make a big show of letting my eye drift down to their crotch, smirk and...

That is the cutest damn puppy I've seen in a long time--and I'm a vet tech!

My husband refers to the fat pony's grazing muzzle as his "restrictor plate." :lol:

I haul a 16-foot aluminum gooseneck (6000# empty) with a 2006 full-size Tundra. I LOVE it. It is plenty powerful enough.

I have heard people say that you don't need 4 x 4 in a hauling truck and I...

And did you see that his half brother went back to the breeder at Keeneland after the buyer was found to not have enough credit?

I'd love to see one of these horses step up and make a...

Girlfriend's got more money than god, so I can't laugh too hard. She came from nada, after all.

Common sense, well, that's a horse of a different color.

Renn, I got mine from the Tractor Supply in Westminster. It works well and wasn't terribly expensive--maybe 20 bucks?

A classic seizure is when they are on their side paddling, chewing and salivating. However, seizures can take all sorts of forms, and your dog may well be having seizures. Rigidity, gum chewing,...

What sort of jury-rigs do you guys have to keep your hydrant warm? Mine is sunk below the frostline, and it drains fine--it's the nut on the handle that freezes. A friend told me she puts a stovepipe...

In addition to Brydelle's comments, I would also recommend a rectal exam to see if she might either have sphincter control issues or any masses in her rectum.

As mentioned, back pain also high on...

You have no idea how happy I am to see this thread, as my mini-donk will be arriving this weekend! :p

No--it's much more shrill and almost like a cross between a yappy dog and a shrieking cockatoo. And, as mentioned, when they are doing mating calls, it does sound like someone is being eviscerated.

First thing--where are you located? That will tell you better what is feasible for your area.

We grow:

-tomatoes (easy, avoid the big beefsteaks--the romas, cherries and grapes are much easier...

I had one years ago who did this, and his hearing was also incredibly acute.

I led him out with a chain shank over the nose and a regular lead rope attached to the chin. Held the chain shank...

I present to you Exhibit A.

Please note, in addition to the red towel hanging around Stanley's ear, that the white laundry basket, as well as all of the dirty saddle pads, are now in the muddy...

Sounds like your dog has an intra-hepatic shunt, which is much more difficult to fix than an extra-hepatic shunt.

I think an internal medicine consult would be a very good idea for your little...
