    freaking out over health insurance!

    Do you have a copy of the SPD ( Summary Plan Description) for your husband's health insurance plan? If not - request one. If this plan is provided under ERISA guidelines, then the eligibility requirements will be spelled out in the SPD ( who can be added, dropped and when these changes can...

    What bloodlines are in?

    Although, there are many others on this forum, much more well versed than I on this topic –our experience is that sometimes it helps to go back a generation or two to find the determinant bloodline that contributes to the factors you are looking to produce – For example King Lee’s sire and dam...

    Who have you bred (or not bred) for 2013?

    We are expecting a few foals in 2013 - in a variety of registration combinations - from amhr to amhr/amha/aspc. We have been working on some of these crosses for almost two decades. Here are a few of the mares:

    AMHR/ASPC Cross Enter at SAME SHOW Proposal

    Something to keep in mind is that a "shetland" pony breed cannot just be compared to an Arabian or Morgan or Saddlebred - in that the American shetland pony has many "looks/types" that all show separately - and when the public hears the word shetland - mentally the general public typically...

    I can only speak to our experience over the past twenty years of foaling out a few hundred foals and our statistical history.

    What stallions did Kandi Crow have in 2003?

    I agree with Joanne. My understanding is that if both the sire and dam of the AMHA horse being tested are DNAed - then the registry PQs the horse automatically when they process the DNA. So fast forward - and you breed the mare/stallion that you may have purchased several years ago and now you...

    Letter to the editor

    Just a little different perspective - for the past 15+ years, we have been showing horses in halter pretty successfully at the National level and then taking these same halter horses and showing them pretty successfully in performance -year after year, after year - some of these horses are...
