    Show Awards

    At a BIG show I want a BIG ribbon or neck sash like Charlotte said. When I'm showing at smaller or local shows, a rosette for Champion and Reserve is nice. After showing horses for years (both quarter horses and miniatures) we had bags and bags of ribbons in the basement that we eventually threw...

    Flys on my foal

    I have heard that Listerine (the mint flavor) is a good bug repellent and smells good too!

    Dye or leave as is? Mane and tail on my gelding

    I showed a black gelding for years and I always dyed his mane and tail at the beginning of the year. It makes a world of difference. However, in hindsight, even though he was a jet black gelding, the jet black dye job always looked a little funny to me. No one else ever said anything so maybe...

    Methods of height prediction

    Charlotte- With our foals, we lifted a front leg straight out in front of them just high enough to lay a tape measure against their leg. We measured from the middle of the knee to the hairline at the top of the hoof and multiplied by 4 and added 2. We just laid the tape straight on their leg...

    Tried and True Remedy For Pure White Tails???

    I always used "Jheri Redding Professional Prescription Silver Lustre Shampoo". It is a human shampoo that is sold at Sally Beauty Supply or probably any hair salon supply store that is open to the public would have it. It is designed for human grey hair to remove stains from hard water...

    Picture of Circle S Midge

    This is Circle S Midge. The picture was taken in the spring of 2000 with her last foal, Circle S Bright Impression. She passed away about 5 years after this picture was taken. This photo is also in the Circle S thread.

    If this works........... this is Circle S Midge. If this doesn't work, well, it's been a long time since I posted a picture here. This picture was taken in the Spring of 2000. This is her last foal, Circle S Bright Impression. Rose, of course I don't mind if you post pictures of Midge. You...

    Question on mares bags?

    We had mares that did that. It's not really a bag, could just be some excess fluid built up there or fatty deposits. Our mares that usually did this were either older mares that had had several foals or ones that were a bit overweight. From the angle of your picture, it doesn't look like your...

    Circle S Miniature Overo Horses

    Orkie and BBH- Yes, I do have a very nice picture of Midge. It is probably the best picture that was ever taken of that mare and it was taken just a few years before she died. If you would send me your addresses, I would be happy to make copies and send you each one for your records. The next...

    Circle S Miniature Overo Horses

    Hi Beth- I definitely remember the name Abigail but I can't say I really remember the mare. I'm going to go out on a limb though and say she was probably a pretty nice mare. I can tell from the picture of your mare that she must have been nice, your mare is very pretty. I will say that...

    Circle S Miniature Overo Horses

    Dona- I always have to laugh when anyone says they remember the first time they talked to my dad, it seems most people don't forget him once they have talked to him. He has a big personality that sticks with you. Once he saw your stallion, he was on a mission to find a Cock Robin daughter...

    Circle S Miniature Overo Horses

    Kaycee- The farm Mom and Dad owned was completely underwater during the flood of '08. However, they had sold the house, buildings and pasture in November of 2007, about 7 months before the flood hit. The water was just below the ceiling in the first floor. It was really hard to go back and...
