    Canadian Sport Horse

    I don't usually post on here, but I just had to say something, I went to look at this guy when he was 8 months old, and was only $2500.00!! My trainer thought he was funny looking though (what warmblood isn't at that age though!) So we didn't buy. He looks great now though! I took pictures, if...

    Colour Question

    Thanks for all the responses! Mizbeth the hair at the base is white, but his skin is black. His colour does look really similar to your colt! It's so interesting though... I haven't really seen a lot of foals this colour! I'm excited to see what colour he is in a couple months, and in a year! I...

    Hi Everyone, I don't post but I actively follow the forum! Now has come a time though were I could use some of you colour experts out there... this is our new colt born on June 14. I'm wondering what colour he is going to be? Both parents are grey, and greyed out very quickly, the sire as a...

    Small Pet ideas?

    I think you should get a bunny. They are relatively low maintence, but if you spend time with them they can be cuddly and really friendly. They need to run around though every day, a few hours a day, so I suppose they are not a great pet if you are not going to be home a lot. But with classes...

    Who lets their mares foal in the field?

    I was wondering who lets their mare's foal in the field and who brings them in to a foaling stall and closely monitors them? I know there are circumstances where you might do one or the other, but I would love to hear about them as well as any foaling stories you may have! Also who tries to...

    Blanketing in the winter

    Thanks everyone!! I think I have decided what I will do is close in the sides with Plywood and most of the front, and if that doesn't go over well, I am just going to build a little shed that she can run free in and out of. I'm going out right now to see if they have a horse stall that might...

    Blanketing in the winter

    Thanks everyone for the great advise, and thanks Relic for the information on the woman who makes blankets here in Alberta!! I think the general consensus is no blanket, but here is another question... everyone seems to have run in shelters... however the field my mare is in only has a open...

    Blanketing in the winter

    I was wondering how many people here blanket their horses in the winter, and for those who live in Canada, where do you get your blankets from?? I would like to put a blanket on my mare just to kind of break the wind and wet, but I can't seem to find anywhere to buy a blanket from, and if I buy...

    difference between a mini and a shetland

    Here are some more pictures of Atara, I don't have any really good ones yet though. Hopefully next summer I can get some nicer ones! [/img] This one is from the summer, when she was way less wooly. [/img] [/img] Thanks AngelRose for information about registering her as a Show Pony in the...

    difference between a mini and a shetland

    Thanks again everyone for the information, and I sure think she is cute too!! One more quick question, do Shetlands have any defining features sort of speak that make them "Shetlands"? I just know with Thoroughbreds you can take an unregistered Thoroughbred and still tell it's a Thoroughbred...

    difference between a mini and a shetland

    Ok, I see it now! I knew that Miniature Horses were a height breed, but I still see so many people advertising 40" ponies and up as minis, calling them oversized mini's. I know even less about Shetland Ponies, but I see now it's just like a standard sized horse breed. Thanks so much for the...

    difference between a mini and a shetland

    Hi everyone, I am a new member, I have been "lurking" to try to get all the information I can about mini's because I have limited knowledge, and would like to know more! I have what I THINK is a oversized mini, she is 40" and isn't registered and I have very limited knowledge of her background...
