    Hair, skin care during winter?

    Thank you, all, sincerely, for your advice. Ryan, that thick coat is just too cute. Rosita has a very very thick coat that makes her so fluffy and fuzzy and huggable! They have places where they can stay away from wind and rain, keeping away the bully as Marsha says is a must, Rosita can't see...

    Hair, skin care during winter?

    Thank you for such great advice. I’m taking note on the lead rope trick. As I’m new at this, I’ve been applying some rules I apply when rehabbing dogs: if I start something I finish it. Tell me if I’m wrong but my guess is that, if I let one of my minis get away with -let’s say- no brushing...

    Hair, skin care during winter?

    Hello all! Us again :oops: We live in the Dallas area, meaning we have mild Winters here. I have been reading older posts when I looked for bathing advice but still have some questions: - When is it too cold to wash our minis? And do they really need it? For some reason the colder it gets...

    Cute, little... and a bully!

    Thank you both for your answers, I do really appreciate any advice! I know, Marsha... problem here is, when I bought this beautiful stallion he was supposed to be a mare, because I still don't have appropriate buildings for them and I didn't want to get any stallions because of that. Working...

    My 5 minis and I say hello!

    Thank you again, Ryan. That is exactly what I have been doing with them. Petunio wouldn't let me get closer than 3 or 4 steps from him, but that's a big thing now. I guess I will have to give him time :)

    My 5 minis and I say hello!

    How did you manage to give him vetting or trim his hooves? I am really dying to brush mine, I think I have a trauma with rain rot since Peanut had it really bad...

    Rosita by Carmen posted Dec 11, 2018 at 8:38 PM Hello! First of all, saying I am new at horse ownership and I think I am being lucky for now, being able to handle my 5 rescued minis... But they all have different personalities and there is one mare who gives me the hardest time of all...

    Newbie!

    Hello Joanna! I am new here and what I did was to do some searches around and read different posts until I found things that made sense to me and my minis. As Marsha said, people can have different opinions and options and I guess it also depends on what is available where you live. My minis...

    Boarding my mini

    Hello Rita, I live in Rockwall, such a small world. I had one of my minis at Lazy T Stables in Garland. Send me a private message if you are interested, there are not many boarding places that can take minis but this one does and is very friendly.

    My 5 minis and I say hello!

    Thank you, Ryan :D They are special for sure. I will introduce them as soon as I have a chance. There is one that was supposed to be an "unhandled mare" and turned out to be a wild stallion... I couldn't go see her/him until 15 days after paying his bail. And didn't notice he was not a mare...

    My 5 minis and I say hello!

    Hello everybody! Thank you for having this great forum in which we new miniature horse owners can learn and find very helpful information and advice. I guess my story is just another one of someone loving horses during their entire life and not becoming able to have the time, the resources and...
