    What would you do if you knew they weren't being cared for?

    I just moved into my neighborhood 4 months ago and have been watching this get worse. I have a neighbor with big horses that are getting severely underweight. The horses got thru their fence today and were on my property eating. I just let them eat....there are 5 of them. They are being kept on...

    Well...It looks like we're gonna have a baby in the spring!!

    I got my little mare, Gypsy, out of a bad situation last July. It took me hours, but I talked the girl who owned her into selling her to me. She was barely able to stand, her feet were so bad. She was skinny and needed alot of TLC. We have been getting her feet back under her and treating a bad...

    Like you all said......you can't have just one!

    Well a ton has gone on since I have last been on the forum. First of all, we moved from the Seattle, Washington area to south of Dallas, Texas! We are loving it here. We bought 11 acres and my Cooper couldn't be happier. It was a blast traveling with him and we even have pics of him in every...

    Help! Cooper got into the feed room!

    Cooper got the latch open to the feed room! He, of course, got the lid off of the grain storage and ate what I would guess to be around 10lbs of Platform mini feed! I have a call in with the vet, but no response yet. He is uncomfortable, but he has pooped 2x in the last hour & keeps passing...

    Any suggestions for vet, farrier, etc?

    I am looking for a more experienced care team for my new mini. I am just not comfortable with some the answers I have gotten from my current vet. And I am obviously looking for someone who is familiar with minis. Is there anyone that you would recommend? I am looking to have Cooper's shots...

    What colors IS he?

    Okay. I thought I had a white mini. I have been working on shedding him out and the last two days have finally been BEAUTIFUL here. I gave him a bath today, so I can maybe think about clipping him. WELL.....the spots I thought were dirt, were...well,spots. But really light ones. The hairs are...

    Pictures of my little stallion.....

    Okay......I think it would be really fun to put him in a show. But I have never shown before. And I am new to the mini horse obsession. I have only had him for a month. These first 2 pics were taken the day before I went to go look at him, they were emailed to me from his previous owner. I felt...

    Is there any benefit to geld him?

    I called my vet to inquire about gelding the little stallion I bought a month ago. The receptionist gave me the impression that he was too old. She said "Wow...he's been a stallion along time. Um....let me see if we can do this" and put me on hold. That worried me. About the vet AND the matter...

    What can I do with him?

    I have my new little guy...and I want to do something with him! I really bought him as a pet and a friend for my little girl. But I thought it might be fun to try showing him, just for fun and something my family can do together. My kids (10,5,2) and my husband all love working with him. He...

    I'm a newby with stupid questions........

    I just got my first mini last weekend.....so I am really playing this by ear. I have experience with big horses, but this is a bit different. A little about my new obsession: He is a teenage, 28" stallion. He was supposably used in shows and parades and such by a previous owner. The woman I...

    Attacked by clippers......

    I am a complete newby to the mini horse world (since last Saurday to be exact!). I have never had to deal with the whole body clipping issue. I got a really sweet 18 yr old 28" stallion from a lady that couldn't afford her horses anymore. And I am in LOVE! I saw pics of him and went to see...
