To all of you out there reading this forum on New Year's Eve..... I wish you peace I know you are loved This back porch is a meeting place for wonderful warm hearted people My favorite place to be..... Happy New Year......

I need to constantly be cleaning something somewhere.....am old and slow.....hard to mop on my hands and knees but we are always tracking in mud and always spillling...etc. etc. etc. So, those mops on tv look REALLY handy....but advertisements on TV don't always tell the whole story. Anyone...

The house is quiet. The baking done. More presents to wrap. Not much fun. I am sitting here reading old faithful Little Beginnings. The place my bud, Leeana, sent me when I got my first mini. So much has changed since then. One thing remains the same. The thoughful people here...

Having a problem posting on the chihuahua site -- so I thought I would just ask you here because I know this forum will work. What is the difference between a regular chihuahua and a teacup? Some say there is not such thing--I don't know and don't understand the controversy. thank you.

I have always had dogs but this one has me bewildered. Am not a novice in this area at all...but, geez-- I got a little tiny and I do mean "tiny" female Chihuahua two weeks ago. she is cute and all that but she scoots her butt on the carpet. I was reading the forum as...

Hello.... I have 3 exceptionally docile and delightful mini geldings and we have sort developed, unintentionally, a little program of visiting with people who need a little boost for whatever reason. It started with a neighbor who had lost a loved one and did not get out much -- I walk a lot...

Last winter I acquired a tiny little fellow that just will not shed out. I like to brush and polish but I did clip Cisco a few weeks ago because he looked so uncomfortable. Now that is growing out and he has these ugly little scruffy patches of brown hair in his lovely black coat that just...

My daughter is needing a farm name for listing at the county fair. 4H kids will be taking some of our little band of geldings. I used to plan to use Huron Valley Miniatures but my daughter is in another county and we do not want to instill any type of rivalry as the schools systems are VERY...

I have collected my little band of geldings and most of them drive. One we have not been able to find a breeching small enough for--even the one we had made does not look comfortable so I got some "thimbles" but not sure wehre to start. Anyone else use them? I know some people think...

A local photographer and friend was passing by last snow fall and found the perfect subject in Coco. Being the accomodating fellow that he is....he trots to the fence and proceeds to pose for her. This is the result..... http://s120.photobucket.com/albums/o182/jbrat13/ The Boys' Club seem to...

It looks like I can order a new harness cheaper than I can buy a used one -- so now the big question...... what do you consider best Leather or Beta Thane. Not looking for a show harness but want something safe and comfortable for a tiny 28 inch gelding. Anyone out there used Beta for a few...

I hope this is not out of line---my daughter is trying to get an interest in miniature horses in Richland County. She hopes to schedule a clinic soon to have a successful 4-H program. Being the meddling mother that I am I am trying to help. My tiny herd will be included as projects and we...

I can't help but wonder have any of you out there have ever been waiting to enter the ring and been serenaded with the Sheath Cleaning song? Not just the melody, not just the chorus---THE WHOLE SONG? Literally they asked me if I knew it and when I didn't they physically broke into song! It...

Could I be feeding too much? I give my new "friends" about 16 oz. of Buckeye goat feed in the am and another 16 oz in the evening. I put them out on clover and grass. Little "Baby" can pretty much go any place he wants too but does not stray far from the doe. Doe is as tall as my minis...

This is probably not the brightest question in the world.....BUT here goes: My darling daughter has two pigmy (pygmy?) goats. Jasper and Jasmin are nice little goats--not real friendly but funny little characters. Because of my "friends don't eat friends" philosphy on life I recently...

Hello... Some time ago I saw pictures and descriptions of a travelling crate or whatever you would call it for the back of a pickup. I will only be hauling one tiny little guy and I have a creative husband. It would save on gas and pulling a huge trailer to take one little guy to a show for...

Hello again.... Am almost ready to rock and roll--planning to pick up a new cart next Friday BUT I can't decide if I want Black or Burgundy/Red. I really cannot decide. Any reasons or opinions out there to share? Dusty is a primal bay but real flashy mover--do you think color of the cart...

Never owning a harness previously I would like to know what to look for in a harness bag. I do not see many available at various tack web sites and am always nervous about purchasing on ebay--harness is a big investment for me so I want to take proper care of it. Any suggestions out there...

My daughter's little black driving pony has evidently had a rough life. Any socializing tips or tricks anyone can recommend? He is five possibly six and I think he was left a stud until last summer. This poor little guy does not seem to be enjoying anything. He continually hides his little...
