Oh YEAH... call the vet FOR SURE... and I'd get a second opinion also.

If there a reputable vet hospital in the area (like a New Bolton, Tufts, Cornell, etc), I'd even consider bringing him over...

Would NOT recommend Weatherbeeta what-so-ever... as their quality and their stitching varies dramatically. Anything I've owned from them has never lasted more than 2 seasons.

My Rambos are...

Old Trainer's sale horse was a big-boned Warmblood.. about 4 years old... and just stepped over anything under 3 foot. We decided to see when he really took an interest in jumping and kept raising...

I've had a few chickens in my day... and what I can tell you is that by the time you're feeling the spook come on... it's already too late. Subconciously, you are probably assisting in it with a...

I finally gave up.

My horse has managed to get off any fly mask ever invented. He has even managed to get a few off without even undoing the velcro. In fact, he is so proud of his work, that he...

Yep.... an apple tree or carrot patch would be great.

Get a nice stone engraved. They have pretty ones that you can get with your family name on them now for pretty inexpensive.
...

The division fails simply bc it doesn't take into consideration size.

I had a medium on the smaller size with all the bravery and scope... and she would have been the pony jumper to beat... except...

Also, pay attention to what and how much she's been eating. Is her appetite the same?? It's possible that she's developed ulcers... and that can make it extremely uncomfortable for them to do any...

It's almost summertime. How about half-leasing her to a kid for the summer? Would give you a small break on your bills (maybe make some of that stress go away)... and sometimes they enjoy a...

Hello! And welcome to my old neighborhood! I lived in West End (Long Branch) for years!

My horses always lived far from me... but you've got plenty options in the Colts Neck/Holmdel/Middletown...

Yes.

Get the PPE.

However, that being said... horses tend to be a bit more fragile than ponies... so there are sometimes things that I couldn't live with in a horse that I would accept in a...

Depends on the pony... and what the gameplan is for that pony. If it's meant to be an eligible green prospect... then you may want to do more than say... a pony that's just gonna be a kid's...

Well you took yourself out of the power position by letting her know that you needed to unload the horse ASAP.

Crow-hopping isn't the end of the world... and shouldn't be a deal-breaker (or...

Mine was always fat when he was showing... and he was a TB. Anytime someone commented on his weight, I'd say... "It's his race-track withdrawl syndrome... he's eating to make up for the anorexic...

Long Island City isn't exactly horse country either.

Seems fishy to me. My guess is that they backpedalled on the sizing bc the pic shows the stamp that deems it a 16, not an 18. Someone else...

If she's a major trail runner, I'd appeal to the "sitting out" aspect if she gets hurt.

Maybe say something to the effect of... "I wouldn't touch anything half-mustang with a 10 foot pole and I've...

It's not just boarding, kids...

If you post on CL for just about anything above $500... they'll have a scam for you!

I sold a lot of my parent's furniture for them when they were moving from a...

FWIW, I called and spoke with them about 2 years ago. They seemed very knowledgable and made some very valid points... so I wouldn't go ripping apart their website.

They're blunt and I liked that...

I spoke to either Randee or Eileen (can't recall which one) once about purchasing a pony. They were nothing but a class act and would have recommended them to anyone. Sorry for your loss :(

::SIGH:: Back in my college days... I made the move to a school by the beach... dear baby green hunter's barn was WAY on the other side of NJ. Took me 1.5 hours each way. I rode him at least 3-4...

ANOTHER ONE...

I really am just a sucker for stupid weddings...

In my excitement to share to about the PA hokey wedding blow-off... I completely forgot this past year's wedding sham!!!
...

I think I'd go for my Mom more than the idiot parade. It would be the guilt in letting my mother down that would lock me in.

I, myself, must admit that I was guilty of ditching a wedding for a...

I've ridden with multiple trainers... but I've always had a great excuse for it.

For example, pony is at sales barn... so I lesson/school her there to keep her going in that environment... ...

HAHA... my horse always preferred the live toys of small ponies or wimpy horses!!!

I think, in this case, it wouldn't be a deal-breaker for me.

If it was gonna be a green working hunter or conformation horse... well that's a different story.

Bottom line is also price... if...
