I tried covering her up with her full coat and she about rubbed the barn down. Her coat runs forward, not backward so I think the blanket on top of it rubs it the wrong way. Not to mention how fast she'll overheat. She's not rubbing her mane, but putting her head through the fence to talk to the...

The first show isn't until the beginning of May, however she's been putting her head through the fence and rubbing her mane out. If its going to be suitable for May I need to get a slinky and neck cover on her asap. I have another question, her coat has always been super fine. The clippers have...

I have an Andis body clipper and a small Wahl, so that's not an issue. I've never seen the plastic things either, but then I haven't looked. I didnt even think of doing a diff size for her body vs her neck but that makes perfect sense.

I'm a point and clip kinda girl when it comes to grooming the horses. I really don't have a real understanding of the blade sizes, why and where. Scenario: I have a mare that I want to clip in early March so that I can blanket her in preparation for her first year of showing. Its still COLD...

I've never heard of anyone else with a pet crow before. Hi! Neighbors of ours brought us a very young crow after her nest was blown into their arena during a storm. Her sibling did not survive the fall. Raising her was one of the greatest things Iv ever had the oppportunity to do. She was...

I just have to throw out that Purina is now selling Strategy Healthy Edge which does have several differences from the 'classic' strategy.

Im assuming they make custom blankets? Im just dipping my toes into the world of mini showing so the getting the "gear" is completely new to me. Its not as easy as getting big horse supplies!

Drastic times call for drastic measures. Is it even possible to find a neck cover (NOT hood) in mini size? I swear these little ones will be the death of me.

Unless her sire was actually dun under all that app there's no way she's a dun. She also looks like a sabino throughout her coat however she doesn't have much face or leg white. Though for varnish its odd that she's not retaining dark points. Were either of her parents sabino? Id say she's a...

Thank you so much for sharing your idea's with me! I am the one that is pestering everyone to fix my problem. Is there any way you can get pictures? I think I get it, but visuals would really make it come alive!

Thanks for your suggestions everyone! I think the slow feeder bag would work better if I could pay someone to stand out there and continually tighten it... its a typical hey net, as soon as enough has been removed to loosen net it all falls out. They quickly gorge on whats left and then they...

Long story... skip to the bolded for the gist. I am boarding a gelding for a friend. The horse has lost his mind since being locked in a small paddock 24/7 because of the weather (winter is definitely here in Minnesota!) In a very short period of time he has destroyed a supporting post of the...

I can tell you that equine dentists have done a h e double hockey sticks of a better job working on my horses teeth than the vet clinic, that is affiliated with the U, has ever done. Its just sad how much I was paying them to not do a thorough job. Though in my opinion its the same as a...

Mini's barn names in my barn... Tulah Stella Harry I like em.

I would start showing just to wear the hat. Your boy is very beautiful, and your both turned out wonderfully. Well done!
