    To Geld or Not to Geld

    I thank everyone for the replies ! I am going to geld " Romeo ". I believe it will be for his own good in the future if, heaven forbid, I ever have to sell him.

    Gelding a older stallion

    Thanks for all the good advise ! As soon as I geld him I will let everyone know how it went ! He really is a very good stallion, not mean and very easy to handle. I am sure that gelding him will only make him that much better and get his mind off "spring time" !

    Gelding a older stallion

    Just want to get some thoughts/ideas if it is a good thing to geld a stallion that is around 12 years old? He is sweet and very nice. I just do not use him for breeding.I dont think it is fair to him to have to be alone and never breed. He does pace a lot and is very thin this spring. I got him...

    When does the hurt stop?

    I have lost two special pets so far in my years, my old dog Savage and my cat Bandit. One thing I have learned since they have been gone is, they are never really gone as long as we always remember them ! They are always in your heart and always in your mind. Remember the fun and happy times and...
