I have a 17 year old gray mare that has a melanoma about the size of a nickle on the underside of her tail, right where the crupper would lay. She hasn't been driven in nearly 10 years, but was just wondering - would this cause pain or injury if she were to be driven? Any experiences with melanomas?

Is it common for a solid looking horse to produce an appaloosa? I bred my AMHR/ASPC pinto stallion to my true gray mare (born black and turned gray) and got what looked like a solid bay foal with striped hooves. At about 8 months he started developing mottling and when I clipped him out as a...

I've been searching for a 44-46" registered classic Shetland already trained to ride and have been coming up empty handed. Are there any farms that specialize in produce riding ponies?

I've lost my list of foals by my stallion! Can anyone do a quick look up for me and give the progeny report for the stallion D&S Zacchaeus AMHR #29093A? I'll save it on the computer this time! Thank you!

I'll be showing a really funky colored yearling appaloosa colt for the first time this coming weekend. He's a dark brown with white snowflakes all over this neck and body and lots of mottling around his eyes and muzzle. Do you think that his unusual coloring will hinder him in the show ring or...

Who all's going to the AMHR and Mini/Pony PTHA show over Labor Day weekend? I was very excited to learn of this show and love having another show in Western Michigan. I'm planning on bringing at least 2 of my boys and maybe a couple girls for the AMHR portion. Anyone else coming?

My local newspaper is doing a "People's Choice" contest where subscribers can vote on their favorite restaurants, businesses and services, so I thought it would be fun to have a mini related "People's Choice" contest! Please vote for your favorite brands of show horse products in these...

Just wondering if anyone has the "Carriage Harness" with the V breastcollar from Ozark Mountain tack? Do you like it? Does it fit well? Is it fancy enough for showing AMHR? Any input would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hello everyone! Just wanted to give a "heads up" to all of you Classic people that there is another show in Michigan that will be offering Classic Shetland classes. The Western Michigan Miniature Horse Club (WMMHC) will be offering a 2 judge A rated Classic show in addition to our annual 2...

Hello all! I took in a 9 year old rescue mare (approximately 35") about 3 months ago. She had basically been starved and neglected for her entire life, was disgustingly thin, never seen a farrier, had skin problems and lice, FULL of round worms, and of course had been in foal for most of her...

Hello! I just got an appaloosa bred (sire is blanket appy) weanling. He appears solid bay, but has sclera and striped hooves. Is there any chance that he will shed out next year with color? Or, will he always be solid. I have no experience with appaloosa coloring, so an input would be...

If anyone would be kind enough, could you please do a look up on the AMHR stallion D&S Times-A-Flying. Either a PM or e-mail to [email protected] would be very appreciated. Thank you! Audra

I just noticed a couple of small white circles about the size of a pin head inside of one of my geldings ears. I assume this is some type of fungus? Anyone had any experience with this and know how to get rid of it? Thanks!

I have no experience dealing with founder, but I'm looking at purchasing a small riding pony who foundered in the front about 4 years ago. He is now 14 years old and moves sound, but is quite obese. Do you think it would be an issue if the pony was lightly ridden (walk/trot) by a 5-7 years olds...

I recently noticed a problem on the ear of one of my geldings. The hair on the very edge of his one ear, almost the whole way around, is gone and the ear edge seems to be a little thickened. I've never seen this before - any experiences with this? Could it be fungal, or something else? Thanks in...

I've got a 6 year old horse who seems to have teeth problems. She throws her head and turns it to the side while eating grain, knocks her bucket/tray around, stomps, etc. and even throws her head around while being lead or ground driven. She has had her teeth floated/dremeled by a competent vet...
