My info, from a good source, is that the EHV horse in question was tested via a nasal swab and came up positive -- but it's not the neuro form, just regular old EHV that most horses have been exposed...

I learned a valuable lesson on COTH years ago that really helps with my grey gelding. I feed him Sunnieflax -- huge thread on this -- and the dirt brushes off him very easily. I give it to my bay...

Did anyone ever ride at the Congo Jones School of Horsemanship in Lincroft, NJ? Would love to get in touch with some of the old habitues.

When I e-mailed for info, in mid-May, there was a price attached to each one, so I didn't post it to my local rescue list. Maybe the poster now realizes how hard it is to sell a horse these days,...

Ah, the advantages of menopause!

Does Dixie Chick have a home yet? If not, I could pick her up if anyone going to a show could take her to the Horse Park of NJ.

Can any lawyers chime in here? I thought a child has to be disinherited, or left a specific amount of money like a dollar, to not get part of a deceased parent's estate - plus this woman did not...

I think a sound horse with no turnout borders on cruelty, unless it is being worked very frequently.

Yes, I had the same experience when I contacted the poster about putting these horses on a local NJ list. They ain't giveaways.

I have chickens in central NJ (near the Horse Park) and would be willing to take Dixie Chick. If you know of anyone going to the HP, I could pick her up there.

But you never know when those other two may come about! These days even men are getting pregnant.

Margaret, I know you're super-busy. Get in touch with me when you have a chance.

Did you ever talk to the boyfriend about doing certain work, or did you just take the girl's word that he would contribute? Maybe it was never made clear to him that it was part of the deal.

My barn has a very clean portapotty with a hand sanitizer. Much preferred to a real bathroom at my former barn, which was rarely cleaned ....

Did he get adopted?

Do you think there's a connection between people trying all sorts of stuff they've heard about anecdotally, and the number of uninsured and underinsured in this country? To make this horse-related,...

Definitely Dylan. Bet Bruce would agree. To make it horse related, there was a horse named Dylan Thomas in the Breeder's Cup today, named after the poet, and that's who Bobby Zimmerman named himself...

What if the baby looks nicely conformed at birth? I know this makes your decision even harder, and a foal's ultimate looks can be so unpredictable, but would you keep it if it is attractive? Fact...

It amazes me how many novice horse people will not listen to advice from people who have been around horses all their lives. If I decided to learn to fly or sail or engage in some other dangerous...

Carrot flavored or apple flavored treats. Why don't you just give the horses carrots or apples - better for them and cheaper?

Several times I've said that I have to take my kids to the vet ...

Maybe they could carbon date him.

It's nice to know there is still a horse out there older than me!

I always wear a helmet. It's protected me against head injuries that didn't include falling off, such as hitting a tree limb or the time a bee stung my mare and she threw her head straight up into...
