    I have Hoof Grid in my dry paddocks and love it. Expensive but worth every penny. We had initially built our paddocks with geotextile fabric topped by 5/8 minus (so angular rock, 5/8" and smaller in...

    I've always had good experiences ordering from Valley Vet. They do seem to ship quicker than other similar places, and prices are mostly better than my other ounces.

    There really is no hard and fast rule. You need to set the limit according to what you view as reasonable. There are so many variables at play, but in the end, you must be comfortable and certainly...

    I have found that any shoes made of leather or fabric are absorbent and you just can't do much to prevent them from smelling. I'm lucky at home that my guys mostly pee outside in their paddocks, so...

    Unless you are in a hurry, I'd try selling on your own and see how that goes. I've been able to do pretty well selling my past saddles (County, Black Country, and Tad Coffin) just by advertising at...

    I think it was a little tight on my dressage saddle due to the longer saddle flaps, but fit well enough, and never had an issue on my jump saddles. Mine are 16.5 and 17 size saddles, but plenty of...

    Moving more air means (to me) more options for placement, as they don't have to be aimed directly at the horse like a box fan. Mine are overhead, out of the way, and don't blow bedding even on high,...

    Well, Lasko and similar box fans are cheap, but I would rather not take a chance on burning the barn down...might come out a little more expensive if I do. I put up one Durafan from qc supply last...

    I have the Cashel Saddle Shield cover and it works great. I was worried it might be slippery, but it isn't at all. Stays in place, keeps the saddle dry, and has lasted a few years so far. This is it:...

    The time that mine got lost (or held by customs, or swallowed in the black hole of the USPS...), I had to wait a certain amount of time to see if they showed up, then Abler reshipped. I can't recall...

    I just watched this video this morning and wanted to smack the reporter as well! But it was so sweet to see that woman and her little dog.

    I have the MDC hunter classics on one saddle and the Wildkart Jins on another. Like them both, but like the Jins better...not sure exactly why, but they just feel a little more comfortable to me. I...

    But they aren't opening it up for a bunch of yahoos to come shoot things. And not on nat'l wildlife refuges.

    I bought mine, an old Warner's in beautiful cherry wood with brass hardware, on CL. Just have to keep an eye out. I'm actually going to sell it (and another painted wood one), as I no longer show or...

    I still keep my flannel wraps around and will use them again if I need to, as I prefer them to the stretchy sort. I've used both Velcro and non and don't really have a preference. Mine are unfinished...

    You could maybe build a box around it to cover the parts you don't want horse pulling on, but would have to do so with a plan for dumping and cleaning the trough. Of course, here, a wood box around a...

    The National Wildlife Refuge comment in the OP's quote was the first clue for me that this couldn't be real. I didn't bother reading anymore after that.

    What does this mean? Can it still be prescribed? My vet was here this week, and just ordered Pentosan for me (well, technically for my horse!), supposed to be drop shipped direct to me. No mention of...

    I have the Amigo treated ones for two horses and the Rambo treated one for another. Plus a variety of untreated ones for all, so I can switch off if I need to wash or repair one, or to change the fit...

    Swift arrival? From Abler? Any order I have placed has taken a good amount of time (over a week for sure, and usually 2 weeks+) to arrive, whether I pay the extra charge to expedite or not. And...

    Does samshield have a Facebook page? Might ask there, or check with the retailer where you bought the helmet.

    My goodness, with the forums down for a couple of days, I thought folks would be so happy to be back, they might play nice. At least for a little while... Boy, I was wrong.:no:

    My non IR horse became mildly laminitic from dex (prescribed by vet for allergies). He presented as stiff, walking on eggshells, and hoof testers did not elicit much reaction. I remember reading or...

    Oh yes, I understand exactly what you mean. We've been quizzing hay growers/dealers lately to the point that they probably think we're nuts -- asking them about their irrigation, fertilizing,...
