Have the horses been xrayed? Hard to say what the issue is without having xrays. I would not just inject a horse without taking xrays first because then you have no clue if there is an underlying...

Did you know he had the murmur before the vetting? I know that somebody who contacted me (about horses) had vetted him previously and found the murmur and I think it may have been on their facebook...

Same was what YB said. I help a lot of people with Tb's and rein lameness can be so apparent with them because generally they tend to be very soft in the bridle. If you block them with a stiff...

Sometimes that is why I just go straight to New Bolton. The cost is the same and they have experts in every single field that spend a lot of time looking at one particular thing. I was up there with...

Boarding my horses gave me much more time to ride and I actually had a lot more money to spend. Why? Well easily answered that when you own your own farm, lease or do self-care you will find that...

I try to keep a section of before and after pictures on the blog. It amazes me to go back and look at the progress of the CANTER horses. I often pick them up at the track so I take a shot then,...

If your friends give you crap for moving down, pick new friends:D

One of the last CANTER horses that I restarted was by El Corredor and I loved him! They are good jumpers with great brains.

I went all out as well. I have 11 acres and run a small training/sales business. When we first moved it we left it grass due to financial constraints but I realized this wasn't going to work....

I totally get that feeling. I swear that Letterman has been broken 3/4 of the time that I have owned him. 4 months recovering from fractured splint #1. 5 months for fractured splint #2. He is the...

I bought a lovely TB by Senor Swinger (sired Private Casanova) and I would buy Private just based on the bloodlines. I have too many right now but I heard that he is very nice.

This is just terrible. People can be so awful that it is hard to trust anybody. We had a similiar situation happen with a horse that we adopted out. People had good references. Vet references. Seemed...

I think pricing all depends on what you are comfortable with and each of us is different. I think you pay more for quality and horses that have clean legs. That is just the reality of it. In my blog...

Well since I have seen some pics of the new guy (you totally need to do an intro) I will say that you likely aren't going to get away with a narrow especially if you go with an english made saddle...

Wondering if this is a horse that I sold at one point (did he orginally come from CANTER MA?) just because his owner is selling him and that would totally be a small world incident:D

He is the...

lpcutter- I helped CANTER Mid Atlantic start up the Canter trainer listings at Delaware Park. I can tell you that the issues faced are quite complex. This is our fourth year there. Our visits consist...

I have made my way back into the resale business this year (for myself) after taking a break while we built our farm. I work full-time too so I don't have a lot of time to go to the track. Instead I...

I started doing my own resale projects this year after taking a break from it while we built our farm (I work full-time too!) I have actually had the most sucess with the more expensive horses. I...

I would ask for the most current set of xrays (make sure they are recent) and ask a very good sport horse vet to review them. It is really hard to answer the question without more information.

One...

Either keep it or make a very good profit :D

Many just are that easy but that one seems very easy and quite talented/fancy.

Wanted to add that I often put more weight on what I see in xrays than what I see on flexions especially in horses that are recently off the track.

What she said:D

Timely topic as we were just xraying some hocks in the barn yesterday. My connemara/tb is 13 now and his lower hock joints are in the process of fusing and there is some arthritis...

The Secretariat Center always has some lovely horses! I drool over them even if I have my own supply in the barn:D Hey, I just love the Tb's. Scruff is by Arch and the Arch babies are quite lovely.

I will say that if I am selling a nice horse and I get 5 calls on the same day and one person doesn't want to vet and just wants to buy the horse based on the picture/video than I likely am going to...

Sometimes people are just awful. I had a terrible experience with a h/j barn in Pa. I had called the woman about the horse and we agreed that I was purchasing him. We spoke at 8am in the morning and...
