Has anyone ever had an animal that won't heal or took a very long time to heal from sugery? If anyone has any information on this please pass it along. My dog had surgery (criptorcid) so they had to go inside the gut to find the testicle they had a really hard time during sugery. Two weeks...

How long should you wait before you clip dapple greys before a show? and what size of blade would you use on the body? I have used the 10blade but I find I want a sleaker look so should I clip with a 15 or a 40. I am assuming the 40 may be to short but I have heard people using the 40 on the...

Way to go Judy, :aktion033: !!! This is the biggest reason why I do not post on this forum anymore. People are way to judgemental on this forum and too many think they know it all!!!! I don't know Bob personally and I did not read the thread but when something like that is posted, to me...

Does anyone own a Bengal cat? We are thinking of getting one and would like to hear some opinions on the breed. They do seem to be very nice and are more like a dog then cat. Anyway I thought I would ask. Thanks Nicole

I can't wait, its the only show that I really like. It does have me really confused, not really sure where this show is heading but I keep watching it. Anyone else watch it and do you have any idea?? Nicole

Judy, Sid and Alexis I am so very sorry for you loss of "Brat". : I wish I would've had the opportunity to meet this wonderful horse. She gave you 23 wonderful years. So many memories. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. Nicole

OH thank God she is o.k, nothing worse then having a sick horse. Especially when you don't know what it is. Keep us posted on her recovery, see you on the weekend. Nicole

Well he is off and I did not use them. He is not used to them to begin with and they are cheaper shipping boots, so they would problaby fall off anyway. The trailer was very well padded and the stalls went right to the floor. I am sure he would be better without them anyway, he is a very...

I have a mini being shipped out tonight for a long 16hr truck ride. What are your suggestions for sending with shipping boots? Do I really need them? I have always transported my big horses with them but I never see a mini with them on?? Anway just thougth I would ask THanks

Conformation is conformation no matter if you have a arab or quater horse style. I have seen both types and lots that are just beautiful. I have also seen some that are very refined not because they are built that way but because they are so darn skinny and really took away from the looks of...

Does he waddle? It may be his stifles or he may be sore somewhere. I would have the vet look at him first but as far as exercise goes work him slow!!! I would work him slow, 20min a day gradually increase the workload but not over 20mins. Lots of groundwork and drive him every other day. Do...

Moonie (now owned by Judy Bakker Sunny!) She is one proud mom. Lead line class with my daughter Kaitlyn Kaitlyn and Magic (now owned by Ken Bennison of Snowy Acres Miniatures) An now Tango (the one I dyed) Sorry for all the pictures but we had soo many good ones. And for...

Just an update on my dyed horse, I took him to the show anyway and placed 1st in halter out of 4. and placed 2nd in halter obstacle. I had soo many people wanting to buy this horse it was just amazing. Even the Judge asked me if he was for sale. I know I should've dyed him and I know for...

You are absolutly right "backwoodsnanny" I may just take him anyway and enjoy the day. He is not that bad and its not an AMHR show. So we are going for fun and that's what is important.

Thanks so much guys for all your help. And yes I am sure you are reading this thinking what an idiot. : I guess sometimes I don't think, and I was really not thinking about his skin and what that might do to him. I know now and I will never put a horse through that again. Nicole
