    Sharpening of clipper blades

    Does anyone have a place that they send their clipper blades to be sharpened that is reasonable and does good work? You can send me a message if you don't want to post the info here. Thanks.

    Fly Control while Driving

    I bought mini crotched ears and then bought some tulle at a textile company in town. I didn't feel like sewing so I got out my handy hot glue gun and glued the tulle netting on to the ear nets. I also glued Velcro on the netting so it quickly fastens under his neck. So now he has coverage from...

    Trailer Camera

    I haven't tried a baby monitor but I just got "swift hitch" back up camera. You not only can use it in your trailer but also use it to hitch up your trailer. Google it and read about it to see if it's something that might work for you. It also has night vision so you get a great view of your...

    Trailer cameras

    I'm looking for an inexpensive camera to put in my trailer so we can keep an eye on things while trailering the Minis. Any suggestions? Maybe something at Radio Shack? Thanks. Wendy

    Fly ear bonnet for my driving horse

    Thank you all for pointing me in the right direction. Once I buy the ear bonnet (which I am not a crocheter)I am going to make, from some light netting, a bug shield for his neck that I will sew onto the ear bonnet. Those are the places that are most bothersome for him. Maybe we can actually...

    Fly ear bonnet for my driving horse

    I drive in the woods a lot and am trying to find a crocheted fly bonnet for my Mini's ears. It can be crocheted or of another material but I have yet to find one on the many, many Mini suppliers I use regularly. If anyone has seen just the ear bonnet (not a full fly mask - already has enough...

    Rabies shot=sore neck

    I just had another thought...the vet hasn't been out to give spring shots so I'm trying to remember from last year...but seems to me that my guys get all their vaccinations in the rump. Maybe next time you could ask your vet if this is possible.

    Rabies shot=sore neck

    I had this happen, going into a holiday weekend, of course. It was "where" he injected him in the neck and in this case it was sedation for teeth floating (he's terrified.) My vet did not give the shot but did explain that there is a specific place in the neck to give shots and if it's too...

    Snow & ice build-up in hooves

    Hello all, I have heard that if you spray the sole of your horses hooves with Pam cooking oil spray that the snow will not stick or if it does it will be easier to remove. With this cold weather I have to literally hammer away on their hooves twice a day to remove the hard build-up of snow and...

    Any on with a hyperbike...

    I don't about CDE's but all I know is that I absolutely love mine. I have had 2 other carts and nothing compares. My horse loves it too!

    Silver Penney Farm carts/ Pequea Carriage Shop carts

    You can see my Silver Penny cart in my avatar. I loved it but I sold it because I just got a HyperBike and it's the best thing that ever happened to driving. I will never drive in any other cart again!!!!!!

    Clicking jaw

    My Miniature (age 7) has a clicking jaw when he eats. I talked to the vet and the equine dentist about it and they just said, "Some horses have this." It doesn't seem to bother him (it bothers me more because I don't know the long-term implications of this) and he isn't bothered by the bit...

    Horse trailer modifications

    I just bought an older Kingston 2-horse, straight load trailer. We want to modify one side for my Mini and leave the other side as-is for our Quarter Horse. My question is that we have to modify the "passenger side" that is closest to the shoulder of the road for the Mini because when hauling...

    Hitching

    I have the same set-up as Jessica. I have clips on my breeching, open tugs which don't have wrap straps and I have clips on my reins. I hitch up and check over my hitch in 5-10 minutes and that's taking my time so the horse stays relaxed. The more you do it the quicker you will become. Happy...

    Driving fly protection

    I have the Cashel mask you mentioned above for our Quarter Horse. I think I will give it a try. I thought I would ask because you never know what may be out there.

    Driving fly protection

    Can anyone recommend a Mini fly mask or bug netting that would fit over a driving bridle? I love to drive in the woods and the bugs are just aweful. I use lots of bug spray but they manage to drive the horse to distraction. Any helpful hints from those who like to drive off the beaten path...

    New HyperBike

    I did not get a Coggins this year as I had no plans to bring him anywhere (I have no trailer ) To tell you the truth I drive for my own enjoyment and don't have a desire to compete. I would like to get a trailer one of these days so I could bring him to my workplace on the weekend to drive...

    New HyperBike

    I bought just the freedom collar since I love the rest of my harness. The freedom collar came with the false martingale. I love it and don't know how I got along without it!
