    Show regulations

    We use ours only in the show jumping class at AMHR shows. And just for being adorable. We absolutely love the bonnets you’ve made for us. ❤️

    Who has an LLC or S Corp for their Mini Farm?

    Thanks! All this helps. I'll have to look into Blue Bridle and if they offer insurance for pony ride type situations.

    Show Carts - Recommendations

    I really love my Silver penny farm pleasure cart http://www.ccfdriving.com/Pleasure%20Roadster.htm. It's probably not as nice as a jerald but is way better than my easy entry. As far as I can tell the main difference between Pam's carts and a jerald is the axles. Mine has a solid bar axle and it...

    Shoeing vs removable boots

    We only use rubber easy boots on the pavement. Our horses do fine with out them but I prefer to use them because when we are doing a lot of trotting and cantering on the road their hooves can wear down fast.

    Everything look right?

    I love your harness. I would move the saddle back an inch or two so the girth isn't so close to her elbow. That way she doesn't get pinched or rubbed by the girth when extending and bringing her leg back. If that makes sense? Just my preference. What brand is the show cart?

    Safety check

    I know that there's no way to prevent a freak accident like Olivia's but here is a few things we do to make our horses safer. We desensitize to any thing we can think of, cap guns, umbrellas, whip cracking, motorcycles, bicycles, atvs, cars, trucks, kids, cats, dogs, you name it. Sometimes it's...

    Western Country pleasure horse?

    Thanks! He's great when he wants to be. We went back to basics today because whoa is not a word in his dictionary anymore. Too much barrel racing I guess!

    Western Country pleasure horse?

    First I'd like to say hello, after reading the forums off and on for years I finally joined. I'm looking forward to some constructive criticism. Please take a look at this video of my gelding and see if I'm on the right track with his training. https://youtu.be/rpfcErKKHSY I'll try to get more...
