I am paying 40.00 for a trim and 75.00 for fronts, hot shoeing. I don't know how long it will be in between for the mare with shoes, we just put them on her. The other two go anywhere from 6 to 10...

I don't usually post on this subject because it can be a bit of a heated issue for some people, my own family and in-laws included.

Homeschooling is a very personal choice that should be made...

We now own the mare!
I am slowly increasing her feed (a combo of good quality orchard/alf pellets and Equine Senior) and giving her a little alfalfa. Her attitude is already improving, her coat...

I am a little confused. You say that you are unhappy because you cant get information on the ingredients in the feed? There is a list on every bag of grain. In the past when I have had a question...

Sorry if this gets confusing, I sure as hell am confused!

I talked to the vet today about diet ideas. He said he would normally put her on alfalfa and a bunch of the stuff you guys recommended,...

If the turnout is a problem we will be looking for another barn.

I will treat her for the strongyles. Thanks!

She has been off the track for about 2 years but I am not sure where she was before...

We took these pics this morning. She looks worse in real life.

I DID NOT GET HER IN THIS CONDITION.:no:

I thank everyone for their responses so far but I need to add clarity. I have not taken possession of this mare yet. I will sign the papers when they are...

My daughter and I are taking on a poor skinny thoroughbred mare that the BO was going to send to auction. The BO has had her since last October and the mare has lost weight the whole time and is not...

I really hate pronouncing things wrong! I was talking with a lady today who was thinking about breeding to the Oldenburg stallion Ideal. She kep saying his name Ee-Dee-Ell and for the life of me I...

As a mother of a junior rider, I would rather a trainer walk away and say nothing than cause a scene and embarass us all. A little restraint goes a long way in my eyes.

My daughter and I were at Thermal on Sunday. We got there by 11:00 and it was cloudy and cold, then warm and sunny, then cloudy and cold...all the horses we saw were relatively quiet except for the...

Are there any vendors there? My daughter and I are heading over this weekend to watch but would also like to do some shopping.

Fleur:
On one hand I feel very bad for you having these nutjobs in your life.
On the other hand I look forward to the next installment.:D

Thanks everyone! I am going to work on my pronunciations.:D

One more I have wondered about:The dressage horse named Blu Hors Matine
Is it Mateen or Matinay?

Peter Wylde: is it Wild or Willed?

There are some words that I am afraid I have been saying wrong.
Antares:
me= An Tar Rees
person at barn= Ahn Ta Ray

Hermes:
me= Her Mees
person at barn= Air May

Schleese:

I totally do not get the whole "plumber" thing. I mean, I understand that you mean bad riders but I have to ask why that word? I dont get the connection between the word and the definition you give...

I have an Appendabian. Or something along those lines.:D

She isn't much to look at but she moves nicely.

When we buy our own place we are going to go to the auction and buy a sad, lonely looking pony to be Crazymare's best buddy. :yes:

:lol: Not Guilty.
Do you ever listen to music and think "That matches Pony's trot perfectly!" ?

Here in CA, I am still paying 28.00 for a bag of Ultium. Actually I have to go get some today. Cedar Rest too which is now at 11.00 per bag.

My daughter used to show here: www.svequestrian.com

What is a spirit bridle?

My daughter's 13.2 pony takes a 20 or so. I bought her a Lettia CoolMax girth from Mary's Tack and Feed. Finding the right size bridle for her, that was a nightmare. We still haven't found one that's...

She is in Ramona, California. East San Diego county.
