    Accessories For Sale Frey Sprint for VSE/Small Pony

    It really is a great cart and I don’t want to sell it but I hate to see it sit. Haven’t used it in forever and it’s too big for my smaller mini.

    Pot Bellied Gelding

    Thanks for all the suggestions guys! I think I will try him on a soy free diet and see if that helps (I know I bloat up when I eat soy...) and do a 5-day safeguard I think, just in case! We have introduced a new horse since his fecal was done so theyd all probably benefit from a power pack. A...

    Pot Bellied Gelding

    I think I did the photo right. This is one of the better ones I can find to show his belly. He doesnt have any fat pads anywhere etc and seems fit everywhere except the belly. I will definitely look into a balancer without soy! Good thought!

    Pot Bellied Gelding

    The vet estimated him around 275-300# Dentist said his teeth were in good shape and had minimal things to do for his float (my mini mare on the other hand has somewhat wacky teeth). I make sure for the most part they have free choice hay all the time in slow feed bags. Its all sand here so I...

    Pot Bellied Gelding

    I have a gelding that looks like hes about to drop twins. When I bought him he was thin and had poor muscling with a pot belly. Ive had him for about 8 months now and his muscling and condition has greatly improved but he still has a huge belly. His is only big in his belly. He has been...

    Driving Pairs

    Thank you. Out of curiosity is there a reason the mini vehicles all have tiny wheels? It seems like a larger wheel would be better? I actually really like the marathon carriage they have, I wonder if you can get shorter shafts though? They seem quite large, I know mine are somewhere around 56"...

    Shoeing vs removable boots

    My gelding does well barefoot but my mare can be tender on gravel stones etc and I use front boots on her, they are made by Equine fusion and work great. I got the boots because it's a pain to shoe her. I've shod minis before but it's difficult. Used Eponas, drilled nail holes into the mini...

    Driving Pairs

    Thank you all for your suggestions. My biggest thing is id like to get into trail driving and maybe CDEs and would like to be able to take both horses (pairs). I weigh almost 200 lbs (lost 40 lbs and hoping to lose more) and am very conscious of my weight- trying to keep things as light as...

    Driving Pairs

    Thank you BSharpRanch, do you have any specific suggestions for carts you like? If I upgraded to a 4 wheeled cart would I be able to use it for singles and pairs (weight)? They are both 34" (at the last hair on their withers) minis.

I have 2 great minis that are good driving horses and I want to get them going as a pair eventually so I can work them at the same time and have a passenger now and then. I will be having the trainer help me with this but I was...
