I might be missing something in the whole story, but I don't understand how the owner let them get so skinny before she finally did something. I realize she may become overwhelmed with feeding 105 minis in a poor economy, but really...is there nothing she could have done before her horses got to...

We live in rural Ithaca, NE. Our neighbors live about 1/2 mile away "in town". They are good people- they help us out, we help them. Currently we are boarding their horses and two of their dogs on our property- no charge. They are technically the grown daughter's critters, but she has little...

We have coyotes, but have not had a problem with them; my dogs' barking seems to keep them at bay. I do worry about stray (and not-so stray) dogs that come near my property as they really have no fear of people and little fear of my dogs, but my husband would take care of them should the need...

Well, we all know that horses remember bad experiences for the rest of their lives and can hold grudges so why wouldn't they remember all of the good experiences, too? I'm sure she remembers you.

Holly- I am so with you!! I say box 'em up and ship them off 'til they grow a brain. My 18 year old step-daughter came back to live with us for the summer...and at 18 she knows EVERYTHING. (Heck, I have FORGOTTEN more in my life than she has ever learned.) And yet, she can't seem to stay out of...

Change is difficult to say the least and I for one do not like it...but keep in mind there are new opportunities coming up just around the corner. And life will not always be so hectic. Deal with everything one day at a time, one issue at a time so you don't get overwhelmed. Do what you have to...

Hi I just wanted to welcome you to the forum. I have no idea about coat colors, but there are plenty of folks on here that are color experts. I hope you find this forum as fun and informative (and addicting) as I do. I do think your filly will turn out to be a nice mare. A half shedded out...

I am so sorry Marty, that is just crappy.

Our problem here is great horned owls. They take and/ or maim cats. I lost at least one cat to them and my neighbors have lost (or found mangled) several. I hate to lose pets to wild animals, but it happens. You bet I keep a sharp eye out for hawks and buzzards around my goat kids, but I haven't...

I'll have to show these to my brother. We both get a kick out of word play.

First of all, take a deep breath and relax- you can do this, in fact you can handle pretty much anything...for a day. That's what I reminded myself and it's true. I, too, was induced due to my medical condition. Labor started in a few hours and got more and more...uncomfortable, but tolerable...

Thank you for that lovely story...I always like to have a good cry in the morning.LOL I absolutely refuse to go to any heaven where there are no animals- that's no heaven at all.

Here's the name of the stuff I found: OUT!Natural No Rinse Cat& Kitten Shampoo. Directions are to brush the kitty, dispense foam into your hand and work into a lather, massage into fur from tail to head, towel dry.

Peggy, just wanted you to know I thoroughly enjoy your videos. They are so much fun to watch and I learn a few things, too. I have two very laid back minis that would like to drive one day as well as a super sensitive larger mini that I would like to do...something with.lol

I have heard of this a few times from other folks who have rescued kittens, especially very young kittens. They ended up having to bathe their cats on a regular basis. Sue C's idea seems like a good one, otherwise I found a "waterless" foaming cat bath/cleaner at WalMart that I used on one of my...

I feel for you...I've got twelve more weeks to go. I, too, heard sex is supposed to help induce labor and walking up and down stairs (carefully). Then again, I, too, was induced last time. Maybe you could hold off for a few weeks and wait for your sister to recover....I'm kidding, of course...

Hi and welcome back!

Funny And, yes, sometimes I fear spiders more than death...I am working on that, though.

To keep my stock tanks algae-free and mosquito-free, I keep a small burlap sack of barley straw (I buy it at the local tack store) tied to a rock in the tank to kill off the algae (lasts a month)and add a few goldfish that eat the bug larva. Works very well, though I have to dechlorinate the...

My neighbors are raffling a goat for their CDE club. The idea is to buy a ticket for someone else mostly as a joke, and, should they win, you bring them this goat say here's your prize, laugh, and take pics. The ticket buyer can get his dollar back and the goat goes back to its orginal...
