haha I think Big Brown is a good enough horse, but he's too over-hyped in my opinion. His trainer is so over-confident that he has basically called it a one horse race! D. Wayne Lukas (legendary trainer of Winning Colors, among others) has gone on record saying that Brown's trainer will be...

Who is your pick for the derby today? Pyro- He won two out of three preps very impressively. The Risen Star Stakes was amazing! He was last for most of the race and ROCKETED to the front in the last furlong! He has the closing kick to be able to rally in the Derby. He was impressive in the...

Yes, it sure is harder than it looks. It takes a lot of practice. I still look like a human pretzel when I try to do it. Andy's favourite is tunnels. He LOVES tunnels!!! The down/stay table is taking a lot of work. I can't get him to do it without a treat, which is not good in an actual trial...

Thanks everyone! I have a really great instructor. Her two dogs are world champions and she is very direct without being mean about it. I'm having a lot of trouble with the front cross, but I'm learning. I have, at home, three jumps, a tire, two tunnels and a set of three weave poles. That's...

Happy birthday all of you! I hope this day is special for you.

Happy birthday, my friend!!! I hope you have a great day!!!!

It is a whole lot of fun! I need some help with handling techniques. I want to know if there are exercises I can do without equipment which will help me and my dog.

I'm wondering if anyone has done dog agility here. I've joined a club and I need some help and I would love someone to talk to about it!

No offense taken at all! He is a bit thin, but in person he doesn't look as "angly" as he does in the picture. I noticed that as well. I think he's just a thinner framed horse. He looks pretty healthy in person. Thanks for the suggestions! I am starting with taking Sean for walks, I took him...

Bump! Can anyone help me? ETA: I just realized the image that I wanted to attach didn't get attached. Here it is!

I have an opportunity to show my favourite gelding in some halter classes this summer, but I've never been in a show and I am not entirely sure what to expect or how to teach him what he needs to know. I've WATCHED halter classes, but this is not even close to the same competing myself. Any tips...

I had livebearers for awhile and I had a ton of fun with the babies. I love watching them grow and get their colours. Guppies are my favourite! If I saw one of those little black wiggles, I would spend the rest of the day looking for babies. I mostly caught them all (I think) and usually had...

It's a Stellar's Jay! One of my favourite birds, even if they are a nuisance.

There is no way you can get mad at something like that. Great Tattoo, Dan!

I have offered my best friend the same thing. She *IS* unable to have children. She has suffered cysts since she was a child and had a mandatory hysterectomy. If it comes down to her wanting children and they choose not to adopt and she would like me to act as a surrogate, I will do it for her.

I read an article on Surrogate Parenting. I'm curious about everyone's opinion of this. Here is the article: http://www.newsweek.com/id/129594/page/1 I think it's great! If pregnancy isn't horrible for me (if I have kids) I would consider doing this. Can you imagine how great it would feel to...

They are all beautiful as usual!! I especially like Big Event! Happy Belated Birthday-what a great present!

I'm not sure Amy was all that concerned lol. She's a very pretty girl, all grown up now!

Thanks! That does help!

Thanks! I sent her a PM!
