Totally agree with this. When my mare had glue-ons the farrier also used equipak so you couldn't get to the sole at all. Those shoes aren't cheap so before I'd try adding something I'd check with...

Sorry but there is no way I'd buy something from Ebay that I was planning on using for one of my animals - I'm talking medical stuff like flea/tick/heartworm stuff etc. Just too risky and not worth...

Have you had X-rays done? Highly recommend them if you haven't yet - they can tell you if there is any rotation and to see changes over time (assuming you've had them done in the past). What about...

Most of the time when I find a horse who doesn't want to hold up one leg it's because the opposite leg/side has an issue - so it would mean they would have to stand on the "bad" leg/side while the...

Exactly this. Done it plenty of times and never had an issue. :)

Never. I have multiple blankets for both of mine so i rotate them based on the weather on a particular day. I wash all of them in the spring but never during winter. We don't have really any mud -...

Yup - I do all the time for my two TB's. Sure people look at me like i have no idea what i'm doing until I explain it to them and then they get it. :lol: :)

This is him from last summer :).

We just got over two feet of snow this weekend (two storms) and both of my TB's are out (both are barefoot). I've never left a horse in when there was snow just because they had shoes on. Mine go out...

Thank you everyone for the links and info - i'm going to check them out!! :)

I sent you a PM :).

Hi all -

I was just reading the Secretariat thread on mares by him and I was wondering if there is a way to find out how many foals he sired in 1980 and who the foals were. I have a 28-year old...

Wow - I've used Weatherbeetas for many years (some going on winter #9) and they have held up very well. No the waterproofing doesn't last more than a few years but they are the only ones that seem to...

It's been hell to say the least up here in New Hampshire :mad:. I thankfully only lost power for 48 hours (Friday am 'til Sunday am) but it was extremely cold Saturday night. i was able to fill up my...

Did either of these two mares ever find a home or have anyone interested?? (I'm assuming not which is too bad as the owner has made a nice offer to donate the money to FLTAP). I know both have been...

Bump :).

OTTB's are the best and you won't be sorry for taking one (or two or three...) home :).

4:30 am at the barn: 8-degrees w/ wind chills WAY below zero - and let's not forget about the wind :eek:. Just another day in New England :D:lol:. So the usual, hot "soup", heated water tub, lots and...

Have one - love it and will never go without it :). It's been around for years and the water temp is always fine. I do keep it inside out of the bad weather - my two TB's just come inside when they...

Last straw for my old vet: told me to put my TB down as there was nothing we could do for him... totally misdiagnosed the lameness problem (was a simple abscess) - he's NO longer allowed to touch my...

NONE. Period. Unless you want to risk your life, your horses life and the lives of others on the road. Sorry to be harsh but nothing other than a Brenderup (and those things scare me) is safe to put...

Bump!! :):):)

Like others have said - call the vet. You don't mess around w/ puncture wounds!!

I sent you a PM :).

Bumping this up as the track is closing down for winter. Volunteers will be at the track both Saturday and Sunday this weekend!! :)

Lots of horses still need to find good homes :yes::).

We had a three horse side-to-side many, many years ago. We were showing ponies at the time as my sisters and I were young. I think we only had it a year if I can remember correctly (not because my...
