    Mare or Stallion?

    I love stallions. They can be a handful and require a lot of work but the heart they give is unmatched in my experience. I know some love mares but I personally love stallions. I strive to get all mine to a place where they can be working horses. Worked along side mares with no trouble. And...

    Farrier Table??

    I'd imagine something similar to a goat milking stand but built sturdier. As a farrier myself for the really little guys unless there totally crazy I just sit on my knees and trim them.

    Good point about nylon cutting in. I do like what I see at Chimacum, and maybe I just need to suck it up and get a nice harness from the start. Glad to here you and your horse like the superflex collar, one more reason for me to consider it. It seems to me like the most comfortable option for...

    Yes, teaching to stand politely is something we are working on. I will work on finding a bridle and let you all know how it goes or if I get stuck. Thanks for all the suggestions.

    Thank you for the suggestions! I will do some measurements today and work on finding a good fitting bridle and bit. People keep giving me a hard time for my slowly growing equine supply collection already haha. Why do you like the bridle from Ozark? Just wondering?

    It was suggested that I move my post here instead of the miniature horse forum so here it goes: I've been working hard with my first mini, Cinnamon. I've had her about a month and a half and we've made a lot of progress. She's going to be 3 in May and I would love to train her to drive...

    Shed Color?

    What color will she shed? Her winter fluff is a beautiful red color but when I part it and look underneath it is dark. The second picture is of last summer when the breeder clipped her and she was much darker. Is the darker color what she will shed too? And is she considered bay or brown? Just...

    Mountain Trail Anyone?

    I've never heard of NARTC but when I looked at the website it sounds similar. The main difference being that mountain trail is a man made obstacle course I think. I guess Mountain Trail isn't a well known sport yet.

    Mountain Trail Anyone?

    I don't know too much myself, but I've surfed the International Mountain Trail Challenge Association https://www.imtca.org/ and the Silver Creek, Washington course https://www.bolenderhorsepark.com/ I also contacted them about mini's, and they said Mini's can compete in hand, there are pictures...
