When I ran a boarding stable I know I found a couple of stall that could regularly drown rats, sometimes three in a night. Ick!!! This summer we have had trouble with the stock tank in one pasture drowning squirrels. I always worry that I won't see them and the horses won't drink the water...

Ladies (and Gentlemen), I have an ez entry cart you know the kind with metal frame and shafts and the red seat with piping around it. I love my ez entry cart for breaking and training, working in the rain. I have even considered sleigh runners for it. I have a problem with tires on the darn...

We have always found Cowboy Magic (a slimy, slippery, silicone feeling like product) works wonders to get pixie knots and other tail issues cleaned up. MTG contains sulfur which is why it is good for itchy skin, manes and tails. As to whether it actually stimulates growth I don't know but if...

When did AMHR introduce the Western Country Pleasure division? I think it was within the last 5-6 years and I right?

And there are certainly some cold winter nights here in Montana. I haven't decided what I will make yet, but I will be making something!

Guard Tex is a great product for putting up tails. Unlike vet wrap it does breath some.
