My appy had her eye removed at my vet clinic - in the back yard! My vets were mostly small animal and not set up for equine surgery, but we figuted it would be better to do the surgery there if there...

My mare was veryvery unhappy when we moved to the farm and she was alone for a couple weeks. She spent almost all her time walking the fence looking for another horse. There were a few 'in the...

I second Todd Cooley! Great guy/vet :-)

My daughter tried on a Charles Owen helmet recently (sorry, I can't remember the model) that looked pretty traditional, but it had some sort of extra padding (for lack of a better term) that came...

WOW!! I was going to chime in and say great things about that trainer who makes the run down to Florida, but I opened the link to Kenny Run and started drooling! That's a good looking horse :D
...

Holy cow!! :eek: No wonder my Rhinos last 10+ years. They either aren't used as much as yours, my horses take good care of them, or our conditions are much more pleasant (probably that ;)). I would...

Those Ziploc bags are the bomb!! I just put my nice clean sheets in some because even though the time is getting near (I hope!) for them, the little critters are still looking for cozy places to...

Daughter #2"s horse started out as a free lease. They totally clicked and when the owner said she really needed to sell him, I knew he'd be the right horse for her even though I wasn't planning on...

When my older daughter was about 9 my DH made one of his rare appearances at a show to watch her. She was in the ring on her darling white pony and as she passed him on the rail at a trot he called...

I got three sheets turnout washed today! The only good thing about the ^%@# heat is that by the time I had to go back to the farm for evening feed, two of them were dry!!

I've got one who loves Dumores.
He's the same one who loves to eat the horses' feed (TC, beet pulp based) before and after they've eaten it ;)

Man, that's a tough one!
I don't have much to offer other than - remember that whatever you do to get it off, you don't want to do anything that will keep the tape from sticking when you have to...

Is the horse's vision already compromised? If he is already blind or partially blind in the eye with the tumor he probably won't have much adjusting to do if it's removed. One horse I know was...

Ooooh, I'm going to look into those. My problem with my wide footbed plastic stirrups are the fact that they're black. I'd like for them to look more traditional!

I know it's (almost) autumn because even though the thermometer says it's 95 degrees out, half of my beasties are starting to fluff up with winter coats :eek:

I've got some 'fad' stirrup irons. I'm pretty much old school, but I must say, I love the wider footbed on my black plastic irons!! I wish they were heavy metal - but they're not....
FWIW, like...

If I was in Bloomies to buy 64 of the same item I sure would ask for some sort of discount!! :lol:

I've got one on Cosequin ASU with monthly Adequan too. Though to be honest, he hasn't had Adequan in a couple months. I've been very happy with it!

I've got one (thanks TrakeGirl!). I'd say the leather quality is a bit better than medium; the underside is nice & soft but the outside has a bit of that 'painted leather' feel. I'm fine with that -...

My cold isn't as cold as yours, but I like my beasties to have a turnout sheet -preferably Rhino or Rambo wug with some neck /wither coverage in case they are layered over non-waterproof blankets -...

I typically wash mine during football season. I'll do a few each weekend when DH goes off to watch his team. That way, I don't have to hear him complain about the noise and how I'm probably ruining...

I've washed three sheets. That means I only have about twelve sheets and blankets to go.... <sigh>
Of course, the good news is that down here we probably won't see the first frost until late October...

Have you asked them? I skipped through some of the replies, but if they're doing self care I'd ask them about what the horse is doing & eating.
If you know the horse, you'll probably be able to...

I have a mud room that's the side entrance to my house. It has one wall that has a bead board wainscot to a little over 4' above the floor. There's a row of (I think) eight harness hooks where we...

Good luck, the tincture of time can do wonders!
