    missing members

    I'm here! Thanks for thinking of me! I do check the forum occasionally, but sadly it just isn't the same. I think it fizzed with the other forms of social media - I wouldn't even had noticed this post if it wasn't for Robin messaging me on FB (thank you!) .. I am good, busy, busy, busy. I work...

    Ulcers? Weather?

    Verdict is in.... My vet definitely suspects ulcers, so we are continuing Gastroguard. No scoping done though. Teeth were no cause for concern, floating will wait until spring/summer - I planned to have the minis done then too. Sooo.. Some form of pneumonia, left lung sounds a little junky...

    dog dental products

    In my experience with dental products and dogs PlaqClnz works the best. I have the whole water irrigating system, it's messy and dogs must tolerate it BUT the gel alone with or without scaling with a tool or a fingernail works great -- also learned you shouldn't scale teeth too much without...

    Ulcers? Weather?

    Thank you to all. I will look up some of the recommendations. I was hoping you would reply Marty! I've only ever cared for a senior horse for one winter - my first horse who was 30+. 17 is just an estimate of Jesse's age. I've owned him for the past 9 years and he has just been a big pet. I...

    Ulcers? Weather?

    I am just stumped while all of a sudden he is a picky eater, yet everything else seems okay. I made an appt with the vet. His teeth were checked last year, but we are starting there. He normally loves food & finishes hay, now he picks throughout the day.

    Ulcers? Weather?

    The teeth grinding and overall expression of everything else I am leaning towards ulcers too. Also, each day on the Gastroguard he is improving - unsure if it's coincidence or not. A friend of mine just lost her horse to ulcers (extreme) so trying to at least cover one possibility. I have been...

    Ulcers? Weather?

    This isn't mini related, but horse related. Please move / delete if it's not allowed. I appreciate any advice. Thank you in advance. I have a 17 year old (estimated) QH cross. I've never really had any issues with him. The last few days he seems more low key than usual. Our weather is bitter...

    Foreclosure houses

    I have crappy credit from many years ago. My mortgage lender suggested against a HUD home.. Plus side of a HUD home is they include expenses to fix it in your loan. They also have a 203k program for fixing up houses you currently own or purchasing.

    Higher farrier service rates

    I pay $50 per trim, have since the year 2000. No exceptions; one horse or ten. I would up your prices! Do the math, even though you love what you do more money is always nice and makes life a little easier. I run into that problem too as a dog groomer (commission pay) - make exceptions for...
