What a lovely topline on your new boy!

Go for it! I have a mini-donkey about that size that rides and drives. My oldest granddaughter, age 5, prefers riding in the little cart to riding her or any of the horses/ponies! And the donkey...

No photos or sidebars in the e-Book :(

Still looking.....

High Hopes Farm has a nice new carriage that might work but I'd have to see it hitched to a single pony to know for sure. However I'm hoping for something used that wouldn't...

Thanks! It was a pretty good story but lots of 'mistakes'. I don't think a half-ton horse would be pulling a half-ton carriage; don't think a commercial horse farm - with students coming and going,...

The pony DID leave the arena eventually.... and came right over to say "Hi" to Maggie! Maggie was having none of it! Had it approached on Micah's side, she would've loved it. It was pretty...

Nope. She had been advertised on a horse site.

I can't give you her story right now - and probably won't as it's not all good. But once we get things all straightened out I'll let you know who she is, OK? Suffice it to say she is a VERY well-bred...

I know both Sue Deuterman and Muffy Seaton. Both have tried to help as has Dr. Graves via the DNA. Thanks to someone on COTH this information has been shared we have identified the pony. She's a bit...

Thanks but I can't get that site to load :( Is the URL correct?

Not only am I definitely pro-pair, but I'm also pro-blinkers - right from the start. You will find most of the pro's are too. It is especially important when driving multiples as it allows correction...

JMO but I'm definitely in the "pairs are safer" camp! More fun, too :) I frequently use one pony to 'assist' the other. And as for 2 wheeled vs. 4 wheeled? Give me 4 wheels any day! Two wheeled...

I purchased an 11.2 hand chunky bay Dartmoor pony mare - no markings. She is about 13 years old according to her teeth but her Coggins says 11. She was supposed to be registered and since I sorta'...

Having been flipped a time or two with a 2-wheeled cart, I am trying to find a 4-wheeled vehicle that is suitable for a single pony - 12.2 hand refined pony and 11.2 hand chunky Dartmoor. I'd really...

I was wondering if you'd show up LF. Miss your stories and photos. The LF boys must be young men by now. Are they still showing their teams? What's happening with the group of kids you were working...

cabz - sorry we didn't get a chance to visit more but I was doing the CDE as well as both Joe and I doing The National Drive. Good to see you though :)

Well hi and Merry Christmas old friends! Gee, I didn't know Thomas got kicked off. What a shame; he was such a wonderful resource! I'm not on here as much anymore either. Rarely check the Sporthorse...

When I was preparing for my first CDE I used anything I could to practice hazards - a neighbor's jump field, trees, etc. If you look you can find lots of things to trot around. I was very concerned...

Haven't checked on this board in ages, now that we no longer actively breed. But since one of our babies, AB Whittier, was in the testing I've been wanting to see how the scores went. Golly, this...

So you're going to end up with something looking like this?

Have fun! I've seen a number of tandems and some of them have a singletree between the...

I think the first MCDC event is a Safari Drive on Nov 19th at Big Sky Farm in Southern Pines. We missed the last one but heard it was great fun. Unfortunately we've committed to go to a dog show with...

Well I don't know how it happened BUT... Training and Preliminary DID get Hardy Zanke!!! I am SO glad we did because the scores from the ridden dressage judge were very inflated and she certainly...

Glad to know I'm not the only one who feels a bit out of sorts with such a situation. The Rule Book is filled with pages of penalties for competitors but there's nothing about organizers, officials...

Just wondering how others feel when they sign up for an event SPECIFICALLY because a judge known and respected is listed, and then at the last minute the organizers make a change and one ends up with...

Well not totally flat hands but more flat than thumbs up. At least that's how Bill Long taught me to do it ;)

And MCR has different size handles. Meredith can even make custom leather ones so you...
