When you have the hose in the water trough to fill it and one horse thinks it's ever so much fun to play with the hose, leaving it on the ground. You discover hose 15 minutes later after it was been...

LOVE THEM but try to get little ones (300-400 lb if you can find them) for a herd of three so that they don't go bad before they're eaten. Also get a holder, it keeps the wasted hay contained nicely.

On which horse? I don't ride dressage per se but I can do some of the moves fairly reliably.

On the big schoolie I'm getting ready to show: Flying changes on his good days (he's at least 20),...

I love how in my 2002 WEG video Poggio looks downright scary jumping several of those jumps but in my 2006 WEG dvd I wouldn't have recognized him! Completely different animal and their XC round was...

Beautiful horsie! I was at the barn practicing braiding tonight until 9:45 (for a schooling show, no less--my boss wants dressed to the nines turnout!), so I think you're lucky not to have to braid!...

My legs tend towards the muscular anyway (finding tall boots off the shelf to fit is wicked hard/borderline impossible), so I totally have those shin muscles. Let's see what else......all the...

Just tell them no. I hate to bring this up, but what if something went wrong and she sued you? Also, if it doesn't work out you don't want to be known as someone who'll sell anything to anyone. At...

It might be worth it to have her teeth floated, just in case there's something tiny in there that she doesn't like. I've seen that make a HUGE difference. Also, the fact that she's better...

Possibly some kind of allergy? Sensitivity to insect bites? Also, did the vet just check her teeth or were they floated?

SWEET NZ team! I can't wait to wake up insanely early to watch 10 minutes of coverage. I wish Lucinda Green would commentate on the Olympics like she does on my WEG dvds. She's the best!

Let's not even get started on what you see in the auction rings!!!:eek::eek:

Seriously, how do you show up at your workplace in a tube top? More importantly, how do you ride with them going all...

I finally made it through to the end of the thread! Yay!

I work at a low-key barn. Everyone is required to wear shoes with a heel and a helmet while mounted. We recommend that no one rides in...

Pats on the back for Kent. I wonder if the steroids played a part as well. But I did love Da'tara from the start all the way to the finish.

My favorite grooming kit items are my baby wipes (which, along with other things mentioned, are pretty decent for tack cleaning) and my rubber curry mitt. The mitt is flexible so I can use it on the...

How about Zara something? Zara del Rio? Zara's Challenge? Zare Bear?

(sorry, trying to mesh names together when I should be doing work)

Jill, please give your girlie a bucket of peppermints from me. What a mare! And it's great to know you still have her (I wouldn't give her up for anything!).

So does PETA think the ethical thing to do would have been to fix the mare?!?!?!? If that's even possible with such a horrendous injury. I hate it when non-horsey people try to complain about the...

Congratulations to everyone on this board! They're all beautiful and I wish you luck with them!

(p.s. Pat....Pops would be so proud of his spitting image!)

I really like Linghering Rose. And I like Blingh, so how about Lotsa Blingh? Linghering Lily? I vote for trying to include his name, although it's hard to name a horse you don't know!

Ok, so it's not a funny or clever name but I love the name Fusaichi Pegasus. I think I just like saying it! :)

How long have you been riding? Since before I could remember but seriously about 7 years.

How old are you? 27

What do you look like? Tall enough to make a fat 16 hander look like a 13h pony...

It's hard to have Olympic dreams when you haven't slept properly in 3 days. Besides that....lord amighty....where do you want me to begin?

Uhhhhh....now I have no doubt that he's fine to carry you!:D Sounds like sour grapes to me.

I've always heard 20%, but it's totally just a starting point. I've ridden horses that, under this rule, I shouldn't be riding and they haven't had any kind of issues from that. Personally I think...

Another one from my instructor when a student gets left behind:
"watch the crown jewels!"
You really only need to hear that one once or twice to get the message!
