The International Buckskin Horse Association (IBHA) has opened its registry this year to miniature horses currently registered with either AMHA or AMHR that meet the IBHA's color criteria of buckskin, grulla or dun. We will be registering all of our eligible horses and showing at IBHA...

Here in Michigan, I wouldn't be without heated buckets! For the ones in the stalls, we put a few inches of water in the bottom of the heated bucket and place a regular bucket (non-heated) inside the heated bucket. They fit perfectly, stay unfrozen because of the layer of warm water in the bottom...

It was in Greenville, MI, at the fairgrounds there. The Great Lakes Buckskin Assoc (GLBA) sponsored the show. As always, it's a lot of fun talking to people about how wonderful minis are! Some of the big horses were afraid of the little ones, particularly when we brought out the carts, but they...

After more than 8 years out of the show pen, our 32" grullo stallion, Dusty Lane Vegas Bet a Buck, stepped into the show ring again. This was a IBHA sanctioned show (International Buckskin Horse Assoc) and the first time they've allowed minis to show - we had a total of 11 minis attend. In 2015...

Not sure what others do, but I was taught to cross them, first wrapping in front of the peg, next wrapping behind the tug and peg, then buckling them so that the shafts are at the correct height and won't bounce.

I do the same! It's a great resource and people need to use it. FB is fine for some things, but unless you know the people who respond to your question as 'reputable', who knows what kind of nonsense you'll get! LB is much more accurate, friendly and informative.

We are so pleased and privileged to be the Featured Directory Member on the Main Page this month! Thank you, LB team, for choosing us and using a picture of our Gunner (Silver Birchs DBLs Trouble Gunsmoke)! To top it off, Gunner received high honors at the Mid-Michigan Magic AMHR show in Ionia...

I'll have to check what the ruling actually says - it may already also include those registered WCMHR as well.

Similar to the Pinto Association (PtHA), the International Buckskin Horse Association has voted to allow buckskin, grullo and dun Miniature Horses to register and show in their IBHA sanctioned shows beginning in 2015. The animal must be registered first with AMHA or AMHR before it is eligible...

Enjoy your horses and your 4-H club! So glad Rusty is doing well. I've followed him on FB, too. We have 60 members in our miniature horse 4-H club this year - 36 are 9 to 19 year olds and 24 are 5 to 8 year olds (Clover Buds) - yikes! But we love it! They are wonderful kids and we have several...

Hi, Marsha. I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis. My hubby was also diagnosed with the beginnings of macular degeneration about a year ago. My heart sunk when the doctor told us, but he also said they have a lot of new treatments for this as well as treatments that are on the cusp of being put...
