    Hi Leia, Wow! What a great accomplishment! Congratulations to you and Kody! You give me inspiration! Cheers, Joanne and Fox

    He just keeps getting better...

    He is gorgeous! Do you have to drive with a navigator in ADS because he is over 39" at the withers? If so, does he find this heavy going? Do you condition him just by driving or do you do something else too? What feed does he get (what hay and what grain and how much?). Sorry to be picking...

    He just keeps getting better...

    Hi! Blue looks fantastic! How tall is he? He looks similar in build to my very large B size mini, Fox who is also taking a while to mature mentally! Congratulations! Joanne and Fox

    Clipper Blades

    Hi, I was told recently when I got my Oster blades sharpened that Oster blades only fit Oster clippers and that most other brands are interchangeable between blades and clippers. 'Be sure to check it out carefully! Cheers, Joanne

    Clipping question

    Hi, Welcome to the forum! I had the same problem this spring clipping my mini. The clippers basically stopped clipping and just grabbed at the hair. I had them sharpened last spring (after clipping) by volunteers of a Mini Horse club and I think they were not set up properly. Out of...

    Using Cargo Trailers for Minis?

    Hi Sue C, If you could pm me some pictures of your modifications (or just put them on this thread for everyone), of what you did that would be fantastic! I also don't like step-up trailers so pictures of the middle beam and slide-under-ramp would be really helpful. Thanks again to everyone...

    Eyes running all the time

    It could be that your mini has a lowered immune system especially if her dam was sick while pregnant.

    Using Cargo Trailers for Minis?

    WOW!!! Thanks for all the replies. You have all given me lots of food for thought. The problems with the single axle (bouncing, flat wheels etc.) I have already thought of but I wanted to hear what everyone thought without any prompting from me. First and foremost, I want a safe and...

    Using Cargo Trailers for Minis?

    I have only one large B mini and I am thinking of the possibility of using a Cargo trailer modified with windows added to take my guy and a lightweight 2-wheel cart to some competitions next summer. Has anyone done this? All of the smaller trailers, 5 x 8 or 5 x 10 have only a single axle...

    Dorsal Hitch Harness?

    The cart in the picture is called the Millenium Mini and was designed by an Australian man, R.J. Walsh, who owns Regal Sulkies. His website is www.rjwalsh.com.au. It was designed mostly as a dog cart and there are 3 types currently and I think another one is soon to be released. It...

    Hoof Boots and/or Glue Shoes?

    Has anyone tried the Hoofwings hoof boots? Has anyone tried the Epona glue shoes? Are there any other hoof boots or shoes that would be suitable for driving on a gravel road? My 38" tall mini gelding gets sensitive hoofs when I drive on the gravel dyke after it has been recently graded...

    :bgrin Happy Thanksgiving from the west coast! We had our turkey dinner on Sunday and my daughter brought her Japanese roomate home from UBC for her first Thanksgiving dinner ever. We had a great time and took a walk on the dyke at beautiful Boundary Bay in the lower mainland after dinner...
