Hi! - It's been quite some time since I've been here. I hope I'm welcome back. I dispersed my herd about 7 years ago. Some of you might remember my appys and pintos, I would like to hear from anyone who owns a "Little Wee" prefix horse. When a horse is sold, the seller hopes they go to the best...

Since we're retiring, this little girl was born at her mom's new owner's house. The little girl is a silver app born last nite. She has app sclera and mottling, her white hooves will stripe & you can see the light rump area where a blanket will most likely go. She's out of Little Wee Vegas...

I feel I have to say something in regards to being a forum member & a poster of posts & a reader of posts. If you look, I'm Member #37 -- I've been here a while! We all know things that someone might be able to benefit from. But, we're not vets. I always try to remember to say in my posts that...

I just wanted to post a thank you to everyone for letting us all into your barns, foaling stalls, paddocks, or whatever to see your wonderful new babies. With our retirement, we have just two mares to sell yet & for the first time since 1992, will not have any new little ones bouncing around...

Just thot some of you might find this site helpful. It makes it easy to tell a horse's age by its teeth. : Toofies! <-- site is here And while we're on the subject of teeth, here's a smile for ya:

Somewhere in my travels this morning (vet's office, grocery etc.) I bumped into a label for Dad's Dog Food. I realized that it is made in Meadville, PA, about 35 miles from me. I know it's locally made & I've used it many years for my animals. But lately, for some reason, have gotten away from...

Because of the auction post here, I started to answer that post, but decided it was time for my yearly tirade on whether or not people should be breeding their minis. I'm not the judge of that. You are your own judge. I've been to many auctions over the years, but have very rarely bought...

I've been trying to download some AMHR forms I need TODAY (Now actually) and haven't been able to get into their site all morning. Now I get into the site, home page only. The download forms click tells me the site is "broken". Anyone know how long it's been down that way? I'm starting to...

Just wondering.......we have only one sign in our barn. It says it all for us. I'm curious as to what you all have in your barns? I know some are funny & some are serious. Tell me! Ours is: "Bless the beasts & children, for in this world, they have no choice; for in this world, they have no...

On Animal Planet? I loved it! Silly as can be, but I watched it. I was a little disappointed in the Kitty Half Time Show, but liked the shots/comments of the dog audience watching TV. I missed the Tail Gate party, unfortunately. My dog watched some too. She'd be sleeping (on the couch, of...

I write for a living, but not often do I get to write about what I love best, horses, of course. However, here's a piece I did that ran today. Hope you like it. The hard copy version of the paper has a drawing of a baseball card made up with Barbaro's picture on the front & his statistics on the...

I had an orange that had been around a little too long. I was trying to throw it into the woods, where something might eat it because we have so much snow/frigid weather, there can't be too much to eat out there. Well, my dog Ursa brought it back. Apparently, she thinks its a funny tasting...

Just wondering what you all do.............do you ever go to a site's "sold" page?? I do, but only when I'm looking to see an example of the foals they've produced or maybe if I've had an on-going interest in a particular horse I don't see on their "for sale" page anymore. What do you folks do?

When I went to the barn to feed yesterday morning, I found this little face looking up at me! : She is Little Wee Wild Elegance's first foal. I wasn't sure just when she was due & figured it might be late January or early February -- wrong! Ellie gave NO signs of foaling and didn't have a bag...

Has anyone ever heard of a transport company wanting heights & weights of minis before they'll give a quote on transport cost? Seems a bit weird to me..But then there's a lot in the world that I don't know.......Please answer ASAP. Thanks so much! -

If you don't particularly like fruit cake, you might find this one could change your mind... 1 cup water 1 cup of sugar 4 large eggs 2 cups dried fruit 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup brown sugar Lemon juice Nuts 1 gallon bourbon Sample the bourbon to check for quality...

Hmmm.... I know we're not geneticists, but some of us have had dwarves pop up in our breeding programs....me? Only twice in 20 years of breeding minis and those were from the same stallion...........but the latest thought I've heard on human dwarfism gives me reason to think again about the...

My horses love company -- whether it's inside or outside the fence. Two people were walking by the other day & stopped to say "hi" to the horses. They got mobbed! All of them were eventually at the fence. I couldn't resist taking a photo, even if I was really too far away for a good picture. I...

Well, my friends, it's time to finally say it (which will be much easier than doing it). I'm finally going to retire after decades of enjoying these wonderful little horses. A lot of friends have been made just for shared love of these creatures. The friends will remain, I hope. But, my...
