My mare always licks the bars in her stable for 5-10 minutes after she is fed- a picture of dreamy eyed contentment. If you try to turn her out before...

Bahr's in Ontario is offering free shipping anywhere in Canada, no minimum. My other "GO TO" Canadian tack shops are still charging shippin...

This situation seems to be dragging on an unnecessary length of time, OP. The teens behaviour is not likely to change. I would suggest that you apply...

Wow, just wow. That is some nasty BO quite apart from the "dancing horse" stuff! Glad that you and your friend got out safely....

Saddle fit? Has her shape/condition changed?

My mare rubs herself bald whenever she is in season. Very frustrating- her tail grows back every winter and by July she looks as if I shaved her dock....

Best wishes to you and your old girl, and fingers crossed that she can enjoy the green grass this spring. You may want to plan to avoid another winter,...

Some nice big rocks! That will slow him down as well. If he is getting a rice bran slurry, I wouldn't use mineral blocks as he might get much more salt...

In my experience, if you behaved in an honest and mature fashion, the vast majority of people respond in a similar manner. That applies to grain and hay...

What a lovely guy. The last owner needs to be highly commended for ensuring his horse was able to successfuly move on to a second career.

[demidq]

Quite right too, tho really sad for all athletes. The last thing the world needs right now is a huge gathering of people from around the world all in...

Did the vet check him before recommending the Monistat? If he is dry and flaky, try a soothing, non scented lotion or cream- maybe 0.5 percent hydrocortisone...

I agree with mmeqcenter- the only barn I know that did this was really stingy with hay as well as feed. The hay room wasn't locked but had large signs...

[demidq]

I should clarify that I am at a small barn, 5 boarders, only outside board. BO provides hay and water so any other care is owners' responsibility. We...

Cat Tap- And unless people abide by Public Health guidelines / mandates this WILL go on for months and get MUCH worse.
