The mares seem to be going for the long foaling season this year. But so far worth the wait. Two fillies so far, and crossing fingers the third comes soon (being selfish but I want to sleep!). Topper (WCR Top Cop) has two daughters so far that are marked so similarly, I'm finding it...

Do we really need the time constraint on posting/responding? I'm finding it very frustrating and makes me want to log off. I know it was in place and had it's purpose a few years ago, but right now, the traffic doesn't seem to be an issue. [#103128] The administrator has limited the number of...

I'm not sure if everyone is aware of Fugly Horse of the Day Blog - Fugly Horse It is a really well written Blog (I consider it a must read!) about all ding-dong, lame, what-were-you-thinking breeders/horse traders, owners and horders out there and most importantly what they produce/sell. It's...

I know this is a bit stupid as I'm sure there are a gaggle of people that are or have been involved with 4-H. I'm trying to get my daughter involved and was wondering if anyone had any insight/tips on doing a Miniature Horse project or showing in 4H, etc. It's a totally unknown area for me so...

I appreciate the need to lock some topics, and bottom line the mods and Mary Lou need to do what's best for the Forum, but I don't get the sudden need to get so many locked/deleted so often. I haven't seen anything controversial . . . I guess it's time to go back to lurker mode for awhile.

My friend's mare has totally rejected her foal (born Thrusday June 19th). The mare/foal have been at Loomis since then and the foal is being fed around the clock (mare is drying up too) and had a plasma transfer already so doing well. Unfortunately circumstances dictate she needs to find a...

Hope everyone is planning on participating in the Area VII Show! The Show Committee has been working hard and it looks to be a great facility and lots of fun planned! Area VII Club Homepage for show premium and details.

So far foaling season has been okay (3 alive, 2 dead) as the first four have all been textbook normal deliveries and three of those were to maidens. Number five yesterday was out of a very experienced (numerous foals) mare, that was a first for us! Sonnet went into full labor at about 5 p.m...

I didn't want to hijack the thread regarding the horrible dystocia - but I was curious as to when everyone else breaks the sac. I don't mean this as vet advice or what anyone should take as gospel - just curious as to what some of the others out there do. Here, I don't routinely break it...

Can I ask does anyone on here have a vet that has succussfully developed a protocol for the neurological (Myeloencephalopathy) form of EHV-1? The outbreaks seem to be getting much more serious and we had considered showing this year (we've even been planning on Nationals), but are likely going...

Since we've had so much discussion regarding breeding - this is an article written for dog breeders, I've tried to modify for horses, so please forgive the errors regarding numbers or litters. I read this at least once a year. It helps keep things real and focused for me. . . THE SEVEN STAGES...

I've had PC problems so haven't been on that much the past week, so hopefully this hasn't been discussed three days ago! We, I think, all can agree there is a need to geld more colts/stallions. We do discuss on here the need to geld, how great geldings are, etc., so I'm trying to really...

Our local AMHR Club is working on expanding member involvement, recuiting & retention of members, etc., so I'm trying to find out if everyone would share what makes there club successful? Specificlaly what made you join, keeps you a member - what do you brag about or encourage new people to...

Hi, Does anyone have confirmed dates for the AMHR Nationals? It doesn't show up on their list of shows on the website so was wondering . . .

Hi all for SoCal - does anyone know of a horse friendly motel/hotel/camp ground within an hour or so of Ingalls Park where the Norco shows are being held in 2007? Any information would be most appreciated!

Well I think I've finally completed all my outstanding paperwork for 2006 at least the registries! I have a couple of the local clubs to send in paperwork for - what a job! 29 DNA/PQ reports for AMHR, 4 stallion reports for both registries, 1 AMHA to AMHR stallion, a few temp to perms, a...

I received four MoneyGram Money Order's in the mail over the weekend and just got off the phone with MoneyGram - boy are the scammer's getting sophisticated!! They use my name/address, and had a local actual store with a purchasers name, city, zip on the order. The envelope originated from...

Asking for help with anyone that shows AMHR. We're trying to find out what AMHR shows are available in the Western USA for 2007. Specifically AMHR in Southern California with the Pacific Coast MHC or in Oregon/Washington with the clubs up that way. Anyone have any feedback on their shows? 1...

Hope all the attendees had a wonderful time at the AMHR Convention. One of the clubs I belong to hosted it (Area VII), and I must say the ladies that planned and worked on this did a fabulous job! It was the first time for many of us in our club to attend the Convention, and I do believe they...
