It was my understanding that after 1-1-2013 that horses could no longer be hardshipped into AMHA. However I have recently seen some posts on Facebook that state otherwise, that horses can be hardshipped through the end of 2013. Is this true or not? I guess I thought the books were now closed...

Cindy, I agree I think I got a piece of crap tool. My farrier has one and uses it frequently and never has had a problem, and has only sharpened his a couple of times too. I think I am going to call them today and see if they will replace my chainsaw blade and file. As I said they have had...

I bought the Merlin about 18 months ago. The first time I used it the horse moved and nearly took my thumb off with the chainsaw blade. I know you should wear leather gloves and I learned the hard way, but also found it's very cumbersome to use with leather gloves on. After about 6 uses of...

I think this is good debate and the reason why we have open forums. I hope that this topic doesn't get "locked" like so many other topics because it's a little bit heated. Plenty of people advertise on this website with professional photos and plenty with non-professional photos. Those that...

This Topic Really P--sses me off. I usually bite my tongue but, I have had it with this topic. For you to say that all professional photos are doctored, is simply slander. That is not true. I find it funny that over the years, you, the person that started this topic, have used many...

I am wondering if you can tell me how you teach your halter horses to set up and stand still, with their back legs parked. I guess first thing I need to teach my guy is how to stand still, which we have been working on. He is getting the hang of that, but anytime I move to adjust his legs, he...

This company had been the one I used for years, and the first I recommended to all of my clients when looking for transport. However, they seemed to have gone down the drain fast in my opinion. When they were here in December, the trailer was falling apart (they were trying to "fix it"), were...

They are in North Dakota. Here is there website: http://fikeminis.com/

A couple of years ago I gave a 2 year old gelding to some friends of mine for their kids. Nothing wrong with the horse, the kids just liked him, so gave him to them. They were not interested in the registration papers, so I just kept the papers. Last fall, they gave the horse to another gal...

I need to get my clipper blades sharpened. Looking for recommendations on who to use that does a great job and is reasonably priced. I also need them done quickly so someone with a quick turn around time. Also, looking for recommendations on who repairs Double K clippers. Any suggestions...

I was very P***ed off when I received the magazine like that yesterday. Plus, we have had tons of rain and humidity, and guess when, the entire ende of my magazine got soaked and is now wrinkled and damaged from sitting in the mail box for a few hours without the plastic. My label did peel off...

I have a 2 year old gelding that has developed two lumps on his lower jaw in the past couple of weeks. They do not look like any tooth bumps I have seen. Both are on the same spot on each side of the lower jaw bone, about half way between front teeth and mandible joint, right on the jaw bone...

I want to send my Double K clippers off to be serviced, and also want to get my clipper blades sharpened. I am wondering who you guys send your clippers and blades to? Want someone with a quick turn around time that does quality work and is affordable. Appreciate any referals. Thank you!

I purchased a bottle of Permectrin CDS pour on insecticide to treat my minis for lice (as a precaution), I don't believe they do have lice. I am just wondering what the proper dosage for an adult mini is? The bottle label says to apply 8-16 ml for horses, but assume that is for a large breed...

I have my orphan kitten that was injured about a month ago that I have been raising. He is about 9 weeks old now. His ears were chewed up and healing nicely. However last week he started scratching his ears alot, and is losing hair on his ears and face, and also grooming his legs alot, one...
