    7 month old kicking when its feed time

    Thanks alot Marty. I would love to have another one but honestly can't at this time. I looked at the ones listed and looks like some sweethearts. The 20 yr old gelding looked nice. My heart goes out to neglected rescued animals, having volunteered for our local humane society and working for a...

    7 month old kicking when its feed time

    I am starting trick training already. I plan to train him to be a Therapy Horse. What sort of toys do you use? He doesnt seem too intersted in the Jolly Ball. I am getting him a big ball. He is the only mini , guess I needed to make myself clear, sorry. It has been my understanding that minis...

    7 month old kicking when its feed time

    Thanks for the post. I am already feeling as though he must be lonely being the only equine on the place. Its just not possible to add another right now. Makes my heart sad for him but I work with him everyday. The dog goes and plays with him, I know its not the same species but in...

    How old is Luke? Sometimes my lil guy, Shiloh, is laid back and calm and other times running and playing, bucking, kicking. He loves to run with the lab pup. Might try to special order the Purina and compare ingredients to Special Care which Smells great like licorice. Lol

    7 month old kicking when its feed time

    He is doing better. Several things.....I purposely made sure the dog wasnt out to see if he acted differently and he did. I still put the end of the whip across his chest and told him BACK and had no problems. Today he did much better just telling him back and then the dog came running up and he...

    7 month old kicking when its feed time

    Thanks. I hear conflicting advice..lol...some say leave them alone when feeding, others say fool with them. I know with dogs, some are more territorial with food and ideally you want to be able to reach in food bowl, but to me, no biggie if I just kennel one when I feeding. Just dont want a...

    7 month old kicking when its feed time

    Hi I am a newbie to minis and only had older horses yrs ago, only for a few yrs, never had a baby. Ive only had him for 2 weeks. He started out kind of kicking a lil toward my lab when I fed him, sorta telling the dog back off. Well now, he was kicking at me this morning, turning his butt my...

    I actually wanted to use Purina Mini Feed but no one carries it around here so thats why I went with Special Care thats for Minis also. As far as gelding, Im in no hurry unless I start to see a change in attitude, lol, thats what the vet said is a good indicator. Thanks for the input.

    Yeah one cup of feed and hay just doesnt seem like enough. I added Nutrena Safechoice Special care for minis. I can feel his backbone a little bit under all his fur! Lol he doesnt really like the bahai mixed hay and Ive only seen him eat it twice. I guess I will try alfalfa and see if he likes...
