    Anyone allergic to horse hair, shavings, hay, their barn?

    Yes, horses, dust, hay, shavings, and seasonal issues. Mine started when I was 16. They have improved since I have gotten my seasonal allergies under control by eating raw, unprocessed honey. I was so desperate that I have my own bee hives to make sure I'm capturing the pollen in my area. I was...

    Experience with Jerald Sulky Customer Service

    I was wondering if anyone else has had a difficult time with Jerald in exchanging or returning an item? I ordered a dash and some other parts to fit my Jerald cart but they don't. Now they want to charge me a restocking fee on something I would have kept, that should have fit, but doesn't. Not...

    Troubles selling

    I think the buyers want to see videos of the horses you have for sale. Make a little video or your horse doing everything it does, driving, halter, liberty, etc. and upload it to Youtube. There are many great movie maker software that you can drop photos in, text and edit your clips.

    Sidepass at Nationals

    I previously learned to side pass a mini you walk towards its side and it moves over or wave a hand while you are at the head, facing the eye and it will move over. I noticed at Nationals everyone faces the horse right in front of the fore head and steps over while the mini follows. Which is...

    Mini Round Pen Panels in MN

    I have seen some mini round pen panels posted from people in the South, but I can't find anything like that in MN or even get someone to ship them up. Anyone have any suggestions? Have checked Fleet Farm (they discontinued smaller, lightweight ones), Tractor Supply, Federated Co-Op County...

    $2000 Dwarf!!!!

    I'll keep spending my money on a dwarf horse because to me that is a better option then the breeder destroying them. A life is a life. If they are free that's fine, if they cost money that's fine too because maybe they are using that money to pay to feed their other horses. I think it's time to...

    $2000 Dwarf!!!!

    I have a dwarf that I purchased for more money then a registered mini. I have the funds and knowledge to take care of her, so I'm fine with people selling them for a fair amount of money. If they were free who knows the kind of conditions they would be living in. They need homes too. While I...

    feeding BOSS, a poll and a few questions...

    I started using BOSS last year. I get compliments on my horses coat colors all the time. My white horse now has gold flecks and gold dapples that he has never had before. My bay QH has dapples. It adds a lot of color back into their coat and makes them shine like crazy. Just a handful a day per...

    Open shows

    We have shown at open shows and it has been disappointing. The arenas are not groomed well, with many deep spots and the judges usually don't know how to judge the class. At one show the class was judged, the cards turned into the announcer and they asked us to back after. The winner couldn't...

    What are these sleigh runners for - mini bobsled?

    Picture of runners I bought these from a horse owner and she thought it was a miniature horse or dog bobsled or dray runners. My parents think it's for a kids bobsled for sledding down a hill, but they sit up kind of high for that. They are 17 inches across and about 5 feet long when chained...

    Training for Jumpin

    So what's the trick in turning to the right in a jumping course? I didn't think it would be that hard at a show and it is after a few jumps and a quick right turn.
