    Your Drive Day

    Yes, Massai had to follow the sulky the first half, and he hated it! He always wanted to pass by the cart... he was happy as we switched place for the second half with Teddy :) We did not have any problems with the boots. Teddy and Moony wore Easyboots and custom leather boots and Massai had his...

    Minis are so amazing! We had a 6-hours-tour yesterday to visit someone. I hitched Moony with the sulky and the girl who is helping me with grooming the horses drove Teddy the half way and the other half with Massai. We did 22 miles. We passed many roads and railroads on our way and the boys...

    Give him time to learn that he can trust you ;) I have a reactive horse (Moony) that was scared about cows, traffic, trucks, garden stuff, things that are standing in fields and so on when he arrived. The first 6 months, I took him out to walks and showed him the world as much as possible. He...

    Driving Hours 2018

    This license is necessary for the most competitions in our country, but actually it's not needed for driving on roads. But there's a discussion the license will be mandatory for EVERY driver who drives outside. Maybe in a few years it will be necessary. But for me, it was a great chance to learn...

    Good luck with the move! I'm happy to hear about you've found the perfect home. I'm a little bit jealous  If I travel ever to the United States again, I would like to visit you!  I think it's easy to put together a team of horses when they already know the cart. The size doesn't matter that...

    1@MajorClementine[/USER] Oh yes, this is a great motivator to drive with teams. Even when it's "only" a couple, it's much more efficient and definitely more fun, for the horses too. But the disadvantage of a 4-in-hand team is that I need a helper... with a couple or a triple I often drive alone...

    1@MajorClementine[/USER] It makes me happy to hear you started again with driving!!!   1@Cayuse[/USER] But Peanut is gelded, isn't he?  I have great news about my horses! I took Teddy to an equine vet clinic to check up his breathing problems. They found out he has a minimal restricted...

    1@Cayuse[/USER] Interesting that Peanut scares about big horses. My horses all "like" big horses and want to say hello allways we see some of them :) Normally, the horses are frightened about my minis! Yes, exactly. Dynamic endoscopy allows them to scope while the horse is moving. I hope the...

    1@Cayuse[/USER] Sounds great! Peanut will become an awesome competition driving pony! ? 1@Marsha Cassada[/USER] Moony has popping knee joints. He never had a problem with this, he's moving normally (until now). The popping is getting better the more muscles he gained. I keep my fingers crossed...
