    My New Foster Girl!

    Hi everyone! I just wanted to find out more information on my newest foster mini. Her registered name is Summit Dazzing Dolly, so we call her Dolly. She is AMHR registered and has her temp AMHA papers. I have her original papers with transfer forms signed, as well. What do I need to do to get...

    First Ever AMHR Show

    Hi everyone! I'm going to my first ever AMHR show this weekend with my mare. It is just a one day show and it just has a few performance classes, so I figured it would be a great one for me to get started with. I have a lot of show experience with AQHA and local open shows for both minis and...

    Showing question

    This will be my first year going to AMHR shows. I was just reading the rule book when I came across a line stating that any eye injury/blindness would disqualify a horse unless a vet says it was from an accident. My mare is missing her right eye. She was a rescue and it was surgically removed...

    Possible stifle locking?

    Hi everyone! This winter I took on another rescue mini to foster until he gets adopted. He's super cute, although he was over 100 pounds overweight when I got him. After slowly putting him on a diet (this forum was super helpful for that!) he has lost over 70 pounds and has about 30 to go. He...

    Ideas for Obstacle Trail

I have all of the basics obstacles and maneuvers written down; it's basically all of the stuff I have encountered at the local...

    4-H Miniature Horse Program Survey

    Since the new 4-H year is starting up in MN and I am the youth co-chair for the MN 4-H Mini Horse Project, I have been assigned the task to see how other states run their 4-H miniature horse program if they have one. I remember reading about other 4-H miniature horse projects across the county...

    At My Wit's End...

    I have owned my mare for around three years now and have been fighting her obesity just as long. She is 8 this year and measures just under 34" tall. She was starved before she was rescued, and then was fed way too much to the point of extreme obesity by her foster owner. I was in no control of...

    Is it worth it?

    I have a nice little mare that was rescued, nothing spectacular halter class wise, but has nice enough conformation to make me wonder if she had papers somewhere before she was seized. I really want to show her in R, but the only way to do so would be to hardship her in A. She would be...

    Homemade Jumps

    Its time that I upgrade my jumps from turned over buckets and barrels to something of a nicer quality. Does anyone have any ideas or plans for making homemade jumps, inlcuding the jump cups? Photos would also be amazing! I have searched on the forum, but I have had no luck, so I think...

    Winter Fun!

    So, since we finally got snow I decided to hook Lulu up to the sled and go sledding! Lulu was pretty happy and I could barely keep her at a slow trot. All she wanted to do was go and explore the pasture we were in. Here are some pics once we got back from our drive. Her harness is getting...

    WCMHR?

    Today is the first time I have heard about this registry. I tried to get more info from the website, but it wasn't much help. All I could figure out was how much it costs to register a horse and join, which was relatively inexpensive. Could someone explain what the registry is about and their...

    Scratches

    This summer some of my horses developed scratches, especially one of my show horses. This has never happened before to any of my horses, so it was a big surprise. Anyways, both of my show horse's hind legs have white socks, causing him to get it on both hind legs. Through a combination of a...

    Help with Carts

    Hello all! I am pretty new to this site. Anyways, I have a 34" grade mini mare named Lulu that I am training to drive. She has been ready for the cart for the past year now, but I haven't been able to get one. I found some for sale online and I was wondering what the best type of cart was to...
