    Ulcers

    Where is the best and least expensive place to purchase Ulcergard? The lowest I've found is $34.95 a tube thru KV Vet.

    Driving a horse with a melanoma?

    I have a 17 year old gray mare that has a melanoma about the size of a nickle on the underside of her tail, right where the crupper would lay. She hasn't been driven in nearly 10 years, but was just wondering - would this cause pain or injury if she were to be driven? Any experiences with melanomas?

    How old is your oldest driving horse?

    My oldest is a 20 year old gelding that I've had since he was 3. He lost interest in showing several years ago, but still enjoys going for a nice trail drive.

    Draft Style Minis

    Well, I guess I'm going to go against the grain here and say I would NOT want to see a separate show division for stockier horses. My stock type miniatures have already competed successfully in color, showmanship, hunter/jumping, halter obstacle and driving. So what if that type doesn't...

    Is it possible miniature horses to have full-sized arabian horse blood?

    I believe the Storey's of Fort Storey Ranch in Texas (?) have have an AMHR registered stallion that traces back a few generations ago to a full size Standardbred. It is absolutely possible to have full size horse blood in some miniatures, however without correct breeding records and DNA testing...

    National Show Pony

    I do wish the name would have been something similar to "Half Shetland Pony Registry". With all the national sport pony, national show pony, american show pony, etc. it gets hard to tell what is what these days. A more clear name would be nice so people don't have to ask what a national show...

    Neck sweating: What am I doing wrong here

    Perhaps you could try a change in his workout. One of my Shetland mares can trot for a half hour without breaking a sweat, so I alternate between trotting and cantering and lots of change in direction. The frequent transitions make her work a lot harder and voila - sweat! To put it in...

    Appaloosa Coloring Question

    Is it common for a solid looking horse to produce an appaloosa? I bred my AMHR/ASPC pinto stallion to my true gray mare (born black and turned gray) and got what looked like a solid bay foal with striped hooves. At about 8 months he started developing mottling and when I clipped him out as a...

    Riding Shetlands?

    I've been searching for a 44-46" registered classic Shetland already trained to ride and have been coming up empty handed. Are there any farms that specialize in produce riding ponies?

    2009 Congress Youth Essay

    What a beauty! Does anyone know when during the week the Youth Awards Ceremony will be? My niece really wanted to do the essay last year, but couldn't because we were not going to be at Congress, but we might be this year!

    AMHR Area 2 national show in Traverse City

    I was recently at the Centreville grounds for a dog show and it did appear to be quite nice. Looking forward to showing there.

    Classic Committe Proposals

    As an exhibitor of both halter obstacle and jumping classes I think the walk through is definitely needed. Many times the course designer, judges and exhibitors have different ideas of how the obstacle is to be taken and the walk through is the best way of finding out exactly what to do. In...

    AMHR LOOK UP...

    I've lost my list of foals by my stallion! Can anyone do a quick look up for me and give the progeny report for the stallion D&S Zacchaeus AMHR #29093A? I'll save it on the computer this time! Thank you!
