    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.

    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

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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 received my HyperBike not too long ago as well as new freedom collar and just took the cart out for a test run. It always takes me forever to get the adjustments where I think they should be. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions about the set-up. Since the photos were taken I have...

    Swelling in neck after injection

    Anyone have this happen and what did you do? The equine dentist was out yesterday afternoon. One of my Minis has to have a mild sedation to have his teeth done. This guy has been doing them for years and I have never had this happen or any problems. After the dentist gave the shot in the...

    Opinion on ordering a new cart

    I am looking into buying a cart through Smucker's Harness Shop. The following is the link to the page with the 2 easy entry carts i am considering. http://www.smuckersharness.com/pg48.html One has the pneumatic tires and one has the wooden wheels. Most of my driving is on dirt roads, across...

    Driving shoes

    I am a novice driver; no shows, just for my own backyard enjoyment. This year I would like to drive down our dead-end road to a nice big field with lots of little dirt roads running around it. The road down is hilly, partly paved, partly dirt. The roads at the bottom all vary to different...

    ANOTHER SRF REQUEST

    To jump on Jeri's bandwagon....Kristina... I don't suppose you have pictures of SRF Top Brass and NFC Rowdys Uptown Girl? I talked to your dad a while back and asked if he had bred these two again and he said Uptown Girl was sold and now resides in Texas. I always wanted to stop down to see...

    Beginner Driving

    I live in a hilly area. Does anyone use shaft stops on their cart? If so does it take the place of breeching. It would be great if there was one less piece of equipment to put on the horse. I want to make sure I have brakes though when going down hills! Any thoughts?
