    Ours all swing into the stall and are too wide to be forced out through the opening and into the aisle. I've seen the same arrangement in other barns with swinging doors. That way you don't need a...

    I'd take him for a long drive. A horse can panic for an entire 15 minute trailer ride and remember that the last time they were in a trailer it was a place for panicking. They can't panic for a 3...

    How much are you spending? Ideally you'd have one of each.

    I'd really like a zero turn for mowing the yard, a fairly large tractor for pulling and brush hogging and other PTO driven tasks and a...

    Apparently this sentiment is not just my opinion, but numerically provable: http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local-beat/DC-Baltimore-Have-Nations-Worst-Drivers-102133594.html

    "stronger" seems like a bad thing in an arena base, but a good thing in a trucking yard.

    Put it this way, the buyer could have taken out insurance on the horse. The seller would have had a hard time ringing an insurance company and saying "there is this horse that I have sold to...

    I'm assuming you don't have a front end loader?

    You could use a log or 4 by 4 as a stiff leg to help the chain lift the far side rather than just drag it.

    Here is the best diagram I could find:...

    I don't know what a playday is exactly, but are you familiar with azoturia/tying-up symptoms? It is a not unlikely consequence of taking a pony and riding it much harder than a normal day.

    Rubbish. It is nowhere near that straightforward, even if we pretend that getting a horse to sign a release was a straightforward task.

    You don't need a release to take photos in public or to...

    I don't normally pick on word choice, but that's the second time I've giggled when you used that phrase. I don't think that word means what you think it means. You are probably looking for "Beggar...

    "Normally" anything from about 5K to about 13K. You really need to look at specific ones to get a useful answer.

    If you want a fence, build a fence, but it seems like you are going to have to learn the power of the word "no".

    Even an 10' tall fence is not going to stop them from being able to hear when your...

    If you want to avoid feedlots you could just avoid American leather. Grain fed beef is almost entirely an American phenomena.

    The good thing about buying a used one of anything with a supposed common early life failure is that you can go look at it and see if that specific one has the problem. After 5 years it has had...

    Machete for brush clearing?

    I'd get them some horses can be funny loading in the dark, but to be honest I mostly use mine when cleaning out the trailer. By the time I get home take care of everything else and stop putting off...
