    Went to the shelter

    Ditto what Marty and others said about training. We have shepherds and always will. Ours are trained protection dogs and we used to compete some in our younger days. You HAVE to obedience train them. If you are consistant when they mature you will have a loyal and trustworthy dog. I can trust...

    Great Pyranese Dogs

    I have Great Pyrenese and kids-they are great with the kids, great with protecting too. Food possesiveness is an issue with the breed, and also they are not known for being "people agressive" usually people who want a livestock guard that is more aloof with humans will get an Anatolian. They...

    Info. wanted about shipping dogs/puppies

    I just shipped an 8 lb puppy (Goldendoodle) in an 19inch high crate with Delta last week and it was 242.00 two weeks ago it was higher because of fuel charges, so it can vary in price from day to day. Make sure you take the time to acclimate the puppy to his/hecrate so its not such a huge shock...

    I'm a Rookie and my Mini is stubborn. Heeeeelp!!!

    Just wanted to add a few years ago I sold a pony my kids had outgrown. She was an awesome pony and I sold her to a very sweet family that had had horses before so I thought them to be knowledgeable. I contacted them a few weeks after they got her home to hear it was not going well and their...

    3000 ways to get killed driving?

    I think driving gives me at least, kinda a false sense of security...You tend to "think" you are safer but yes there are a lot more ways to get hurt, or someone else hurt, your horse, etc. We do a lot of driving here and we just love it-everyone even Non rider, non horsey people tend to enjoy...

    Two minis sharing a stall

    SO they would be putting two horses from DIFFERENT owners in the same stall? That sounds very odd to me, I dont know. What if one eats the others grain-what if their horse hurts yours, who is responsible for the vet charges? What if they(the other horses owners) use handling practices you do not...

    I have another "Grievance"

    Having been ripped off more than a few times-and having made every rookie mistake in buying horses (big and small) I make sure I take the time to explain paperwork, registries, what to watch out for to everyone that comes to our farm whether or not they buy a horse from me...

    Miniatures and wild beasties?

    I used to live in Lancaster...maybe 30 miles from where that happened?? I had TWO Great Pyrenees dogs..not one but two. We had coyotes coming in the horse pasture all the time before I got them. My main fear was loose dogs and pitbulls! The desert seemed to be peoples favorite place to dump pit...

    So I thought I had everything secure

    . You did the right thing and it was truly brave of you. Unfortunately many would not see past their own desires to keep her but you did and she is much better for it. Yes, you truly are a good horseperson and your time will come! Big hugs to you!!

    "Miniture" Breeding Stock

    Breeding aside, what about the geldings that go over? OK, so they cant show but now unless they are in AMHR too they are now worthless. I have a gelding that I thought was a bit tall when I bought him-but dont show and I cant breed him so didnt mind. I think he is clearly oversize when I see him...

    HELP!! What are these huge lumps on my 16 yr old QH?

    Are they soft and kinda squishy to the touch? And not at all hot or seem to bother the horse? I had a large warmblood that used to get those every once in a while. Vet said it was a reaction to some kinda bite most likely. On my horse they would appear suddenly and leave just as soon. He was...
