I don't see 'over at the knees' in this foal. Little 'knobby' knees,yes... and some toeing-out...frequently seen in very young foals, esp....
After a close look at the photos, I am quite certain that this cart is for a full-sized horse and has had the wheels replaced and the shafts cut...
I have viewed the video a number of times, have come to believe that, while the driving was TOTALLY inadequate, the vehicle lacked any sort of...
Hi. LONG time member here; just haven't been over here much in quite a while. Driving since 1985; always trained my own, as I've done with my...
I certainly remember this creature; she was trouble with a capital T in every way. VERY sad, but not to me surprising, that she showed her true...
You will be happy to know, it is MADE in Canada....I believe Patty is near Edmonton. I can verify that all their products....carts, harness...are...
I suspect a good used Jerald by the original Jerald might run more than quoted, but they are considered the 'gold standard', I'd say. I would...
Sorry to be a bit late in replying on this thread ; I don't check in here as often as I once did. I have enlarged and been carefully studying your...
Marsha, I know nothing about leather bits, but it doesn't seem to me that such would last long. I have one, a simple mullen mouth, but don't...

I am one who would disagree on the overcheck; I have and do occasionally use a sidecheck; mostly if needed to help prevent grabbing for grass....
I believe 2'(24") of chain to be TOO LONG for use on minis...and also, in the kind of chain pictured, too heavy. For one thing, it is considered...
In the 'wider' world of driving...i.e., ADS/FEI, around much of the world, it is considered incorrect to use russet harness with most vehicles...
How tall is your mare? Patty's Pony Place near Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, offers a couple of really cute 4 wheelers for single minis. Patty has...
Best I can tell from your pics...your mare does appear a tad 'fat', but NOT grossly so...and since she is in winter coat, that fuzz can be...
It is also possible for a mare to have a false pregnancy...an enlarging belly and no discernible heat...that goes on right up until time of...
A word about 'parades don't start on time'...they most likely DO 'START'at the appointed time, esp. if there will be any TV coverage...but you...
Just now reading this thread. It sounds like you've done a good job of helping this horse calm down; the best thing, I believe, is letting him...
