I just got a used Wintec Pro late last fall. I've only been able to ride in it a few times, but I have LOVED those few times. I have an uber wide fjordX, but he has a sloped shoulder. It fits him...

Dressage whip. A broom handle. My little guys learned really quick not to be nasty with me. Smacking them with a bucket has worked too. :lol:

Honestly, the goats weren't much of an issue, a tap...

Forgot to ask...is he stalled or have access to pasture? It seems horses that have pasture time keep their front teeth better, but maybe not in this case. :sadsmile:

Wow. I guess the question is how does his molars work in the back. He obviously can only slide his teeth in one direction easily. I think I would forward these on to the dentist or vet dental...

Exactly...my horse has a good size nose and the crank fits him so nicely. I still can put 2 fingers under it, but it stays right in place. Doesn't pinch.

Having many oldies over the years, the first one we had did well on Senior/Strategy mixed and soaked. That was before I knew about beet pulp. I would also feed him the leafiest, finest stemmed...

Having older arthritic horses is a maintenance issue. Keeping them comfortable. I tried Adequan and found it didn't help any more than oral supplements, so I do the oral plus Legend.

My two...

One other thing...it was never a competition between me and the girls with the horses. I loved every moment of being a horse mom, 4-h leader and even birthing the lambs. That time with our kids was...

Yup, just wait for empty nester time. I have two daughters and when we got back into horses we did pony club, 4-h, also sheep 4-h then FFA. The first horse we bought after long hiatus was supposed to...

Well, I would let my insurance company know, get the tail gate fixed/replaced/painted to match and send them the bill. They have insurance for this and let your insurance company handle theirs.

I...

13 yr old fjordX gelding (I've posted pics of him many times before.) ;)

24 yr old Arab, not a cross, a definitely a mix of arab bloodlines.

28 yr old grade qh gelding (who knows, we think he...

Depending where you live, I feed Millenium Gold. Very good product. You could feed Sho Glo, I never have, but I know people that do.

You could do something like Purina Born to Win or Natures...

Another thought on the runny stools, flax is even more efficient that psyllium for removing sand. It gels up and moves sand along with it, but it is also nutritious, unlike psyllium. Maybe the flax...

Gorgeous horse!! He looks like a hoop tree is going to be necessary. Duett is great, but if you want a higher end, Schleese. I had an Albion K2 and it wasn't wide enough with the widest tree. I then...

When it is really cold out, I just don't think I need to put a bit in his mouth. The bosal is perfect. Also, when we just want to relax or take a break, I use the bosal.

Look at the loping...

My friend and then my instructor both were raving about the bitless bridle. I was experimenting with different things on my horse. Even though he is a tank of guy, he has a very sensitive mouth and...

Good products, I have used it. Not for sheep though, too much copper. When I raised pygmy goats I fed it to them and the horses.

I have stream lined my feed program since then and the last pygmy...

I agree. I don't think I stated anywhere that I do "Natural Horsemanship", I do groundwork. I think NH is way overdone and tends to make horses (a) dull or (b) reactive. I do enough groundwork to get...

Well, I ride in spurs or not, I ride in snaffles or not. My horses all side pass beautifully. They move over with a wiggle of a finger or back up.

Being rough doesn't make a horse light, it makes...

I agree. I had my Duett Largo 19" 38 cm saddle adjusted in 2007, and there was the normal white wool flocking. The Schleese saddler commented how nice and easy the Duett was to work with.

That...

Well, my horse bolted with me today for the first time. I've had him 5 yrs and he's 13. He has spooked many times, but since he's a fjordx, not much of a spook. A step or two and a look is normally...

I actually have one of these and have never used it and probably won't. I could part with it. :D I bought it for my fjordX. The leather is nice but stiff. I would have put a sheepskin cover on it. I...

I am so sorry about Norman. :no: Colic is so heart breaking. How old a horse? Please update us.

LOL, well parts of Oregon and Washington are desert, too. We get a whopping 6-7 inches of precip a year. :lol:

My guy wasn't a PMU, but he was a result of a back 40 breeding of a fjord stud and a...

Oooh, she's pretty. I love her darker grulla color. That country looks like Oregon, where are you located?

These fjordie crosses are conversation starters, aren't they. :D

What do you do with...
