Don't panic, but get the facts. One really great resource is this website www.ecirhorse.com It is owned by a veterinarian with a special interest in this area, and is cutting edge when it comes to the most up to date and well documented and researched information. I have a mini mare, one...

Hey, Makayla -- I am so looking forward to judging your mini division! This is always such a fun day. I hope everyone in the area will make an effort to attend, and/or support this very worthy cause. Remember everyone, that 'virtual entries' are always welcome! Cindy

I just received notice of this sale from a friend in Washington state, and wondered if the NW mini community was aware, since I have not seen it posted here. The sale is being run by a non-horse auction company. The fear is that with no minimums or reserves, these animals may end up in 'at risk'...

A few years ago, I had a mini mare very with a 'mystery disease'. We tested for everything......and I do mean everything. I also tested a sampling of my herd for comparison purposes. One of those tests was for Vit. E/Selenium. It was very interesting that although I live in New England...

Hello Everyone - It has been heartwarming to watch the generous donations pouring into Chances! I was so happy to hear that "Ten", the pony colt we purchased along with 10 minis during the 'Valentine Rescue' of 2008 has finally found a forever home. The poor little guy, in his terror, had...

Gini, the Northeast Miniature Horse Club Rescue Committee has a substantial donation to make to Chances for the Texas minis, as well as toward your ongoing rescue work. I will pm you to see how best to get this money where it will do the most good. But I wanted to post here to bump this topic...

That was an 'oops'. sorry. Hey Mark, sounds like a great show. So happy for our friends in Maine! It's great to have another venue to show our horses. Can you clarify? Over a hundred horses...meaning the total of the horses entered for the AMHR show on Saturday, PLUS the horses entered for...

Thanks for posting this, Missy! All the information -- Show Premium, Class List, and Entry Form -- is also available on our club website www.northeastminis.org And we are proud to announce that we have a great corporate sponsor for this show. NATURAL PLAN STOMACH SOOTHER has donated all of...

Oops! Let's try this again. A full three days of driving with Mike McCabe! May 14, 15 and 16, 2010 at Clear Brook Farm in Hancock, NH Mike is a World Renowned Breeder, Trainer and Judge (and 2010 AMHA World Show Judge) who will be available for PRIVATE lessons with your own horse. He...

Incredible job as always, Becca! We are so proud of you and Kassie. I bet some day she'll sprout wings just like her Dad Kippy!

Gini - I know that we missed your deadline (difficult logistics of trying to hold a board meeting during holidays) but I am very pleased to tell you that the Northeast Miniature Horse Club has pledged $350 to CMHR! The check will be on its way this week, and that should bring your total up...

Just wanted to clarify for anyone interested in this subject that Hosscrazy's yahoo group is the same resource as the web site I sited yesterday. www.ecirhorse.com You can go to the site first, then join the group to ask your specific questions. There is virtually no 'chatting', just fact...

Becky, I have 2 mares who have Cushings, and several in my herd who are insulin resistant. All are managed and 'healthy' now, although the management is ongoing and requires periodic tweaking. Some of the symptoms overlap, but it is important to understand the differences. Check out this web...

I understand that there will be a clarification on the question of who must show an AOTE horse in a championship or supreme class. It is permissable now to hand off an AOTE horse to another amateur handler if you have more than one (amateur OR aote horse) in a championship or supreme class...
