I have made all of my horses/ponies bombproof, or what I like to call it Kidifing! Since I was young when I got my first horse I used to do a lot of stupid things so my horses got used to a lot. My...

My current show hunter is just starting to calm down and really come into himself at 14 (will be 15 end of March)! He is completely sound and still jumping 3'6" on a regular basis. He was my Jr...

Hey I have a med/lg sized tack trunk. It's not wide or deep just a little longer than most. My trunk is for everyday and when we go away for shows, also my horses lived at home up until a year or 2...

My horse is 15.2 1/2 hh but I've owned horses/ponies ranging from 12.1 hh to 16.2 hh and have ridden horses up to 19 hh!!! Believe it or not!! Even though I look like a flea...

I have one and love it!! I haven't had any issues with it so far and it's been well over a yr of use. Fits my horse great which is nice because he has a big jaw/throat latch but little nose. Yes...

Not to butt in on this thread but I had a shipping cost question as well. I just was wondering if I was totally unfair for charging someone $400 to ship their horse from VA to PA. It was...

Update for everyone!

I've doing a lot of practice at home with and without my trainer for the walk and trot jumps. I can now come down to the trot about 5 strides out and have a beautiful jump...

I agree I used to have an HDR saddle years ago... it was the Pro Showjumper model. It was the only thing that fit my horse and me at the time. Yes it did have big knee rolls but I needed it because...

Thanks everyone this really helps a lot! I think the hardest part will be the trot/walk jumps because my guy doesn't understand why we are breaking gait in the middle of a course. :) I don't think...

So I just moved up from the Adults into the A/O's and I have my first real Handy class in two weeks and I was wondering what is the proper way to ride one. I know that there may be trot fences, walk...

Just wondering who all was going to the Our Farm show on Tuesday July 21st. I'm trying to figure out if the A/O hunter division will fill. I believe it's supposed to run around 5 pm. I just don't...

I WANT HIM SO BAD!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for this thread. Now I have a question for all the judges that is along the same lines. Now I show a very nice but small bold/brilliant hunter who is a TB in the A/O's. He is a wonderful...

This looks like an excellent idea especially since I DON'T have a gooseneck!

So I just noticed that my dressing room in my trailer is a complete mess yet again. I've tried organizing it and putting things away but it never seems to work or make much sense. I was just...

I use the Depo shot on my gelding and it has done wonders!!! He will stay on this until he retires or I put him down. It will be my first choice for any gelding that needs an attitude adjustment or...

I just give my guy SmartCalm on a daily basis to keep the edge off... then for shows or a lesson or an outing or any kind he gets just Vit B1. It was worked wonders on him. He's a strong and...

I don't know of any supplement that would make your horse less sour to working in the ring. However to modify attitude I use Depo and he gets a daily serving of either the Smart Calm or the Calm...

My hunter hates ring work especially now that he is being boarded again. When I had him at my house I didn't have a ring so we were always riding in the fields, trails, road, or the local park. So...

This is how my (old jumper) trainer and I used to pole my guy. We used bamboo as the touching stick bc it would really blend in with the fence. My horse was already a tight and careful jumper,...

I feed Nutrena for my TB hunter, however I don't have any experience with the Ultra or XTN. I feed Safe Choice with is the low sugar/starch formula and my guy is actually calmer on it than any other...
