I have a mini gelding that has had some training but not in a LONG time. So I've been looking for a trainer near me b ut have had little luck. I live 40 mins from St. Paul, MN and 10 mins from Riverfalls, WI. Could anyone suggest someone? Thanks in advance. Stephanie

I was wondering how leg chains/leg weights help your horse. Do you put them on and give them a cue to lift there legs so when you show them they associate the cue to lift more or do the just start to lift their legs more all the time? I was reading some threads and it seems that they are not...

I am going to a show and competing in halter. My question is should I tuck my gelding’s forelock under his halter to the side or leave it in the middle? (His forelock is not thin nor extremely thick.) I have seen both but does putting it to the side tucked have a more appealing look? Appreciate...

I have been searching everywhere for horse auctions around Wisconsin and Minnesota but can’t seem to find any! I know they are happening but can never find where and when. And ideas where to find horse auctions? Thanks

I found these classes here: http://www.hemlockfair.org/pdfs_exhibitors...atureHorses.pdf I thought these class very different and creative: Pole Bending- This is a timed event. Will be asked to lead through a pole-bending pattern around pylons. Carrot Trail- Will be asked to lead horse...

How do you introduce the clippers? Do you stop when they start to get frightened? I don't want to push it. Any advice? Thanks.

I was wondering how much you would pay or have paid for a painting of your horse. I painted a picture of my own horse and brought it to a competition and got a blue on it and some one was asking if I could paint their horse but I didn’t know what to charge. Any suggestion on price range...

I need the rules for our 4-h, we are adding in hand jumping in our mini section ( :bgrin yay :aktion033: ) and I want the rules to be from AMHR or AMHA so they are clear and correct. Much appreciate it if someone could post it or post a link to the rules. Stephanie~

Hey everyone, I am making some plaques for our 4-h kids and I need some clip art of minis--like of a person standing next to one so you can tell it's smaller. Much appreciated Stephanie~

I just took some pictures of our mini, Muffin. My mother and I shaved his bridle path on Sunday (his first clip in his entire life) I think he did quite well and we are going to do his fetlocks and his muzzle too. Do you think I should thin his mane or anything like that?? I don't know how I...

How do you desensitize your horses? I got a mini stallion (soon to be gelded lol) this fall and he was only used for teasing mares and had little handling. He is really good for the little handing he has had; you can pick his feet up and clean them, lead him, check him over, ect. The basic. He...

Yesterday we got a foot of snow. I am sick so I had to stay in but today I was itching to go out. So I put on my snowgear and with my camra I went down to the barn. And I got this... I had a Blast watching Muffin's little legs try to get through all that snow! He was not very happy he...

I was offered a mini stud for free. He is 7 and if I got him I would geld him and show him in Pinto. I could work with him (exercise him, train him, ect). But should I take him or should I look for one with more 'quality'? I am new at this and have a harder time telling if a mini has dwarf...

Sadly we had to put our horse Red down. He lived a happy life with us. He was an ex ranch horse bought supposedly at age 9 (maybe older) but he had gone blind in 04' by a branch scrapped his left eye. Not one dime into him for vet bills in till in 04' and $1500 later we decided to leave his...

Now this could be obvious to you but I am so confused! We have registered full-sized horses in pinto but not minis. I want to register a pinto mini into Pinto/PtHA(Or anyother association or registry for that matter!) and I want to know how and what I need to have/know. If some one could tell...

I am (hopefully ) getting a mini and even if I am not I would like more 4-h miniature horse activities . All that we have is driving and showmanship and I would like to make more available to everyone. I went to district and I saw a mini in obstacle driving and thought, hey all we have is...

I wanted to get the Miniature Horse World magazine subscription and I looked to see how much it is. I found the price high and only 6 issues. I don't know if it is what I want because I had gotten the Paint Journal before and it was just ads and no info. Is the Miniature Horse World like the...
