    ASPC/AMHR/ASPC Convention

    Anyone still wanting to come to convention here in St Louis next month? It is still possible!! The only thing that won't be possible is the discount on the room rate. If you plan to drive in, you could get another hotel/motel and drive over to the host hotel. I am sure Dolores can give you...

    SS SIGN UP CLOSED!!

    I just finished sending you my email and another for my hubby (fancysummer) Last year, we tried to wait until we both had our gifts before we opened them, but then couldn't. LOL So fun to be kids again. Thanks again, Robin for taking on this huge task. Just curious, did we get 100% last...

    Need help with Barn Name

    LOL--Buddy is what I was going to suggest. Every horse in my barn has a registered name and we use some shortened version of that for each one, but when I am working and the name slips my mind, the boys are buddy and the girls are missy. LOL

    Hauling with small trucks

    We use a 4-door dakota to pull a small horse trailer. It is supposed to be a two horse, but there is no way two horses would fit. Maybe two med size ponies. I have no trouble stopping in good weather and am overly cautious in wet weather. Often we will use the big truck and trailer in bad...

    final mailing date for Board of directors' election

    If your area has an election for an AMHR/ASPC/ASPR board of director, you need to have the ballot mailed no later than Saturday. We got the ballots some time ago and some of you may have put them away till later. Well, need to get them out, mark your choice and send them in. Have a great weekend.

    Clipper Suggestions

    This is what I have also. Love the combination. I do a lot of 'neatening up' and use a number 10 for everything. Just keeps it simple and no switching blades ect. I know a cordless may be easier to deal with, but have gotten used to the Andis and they are easy on the hands for me as I...

    Miniature Horses as Guide Animals (POLL: Yes or No)

    I work with my minis in many situations. I have a 14 yr old that has ridden in the backseat of my truck, visited many a happy resident at a nursing home and tolerated many young people hanging, pulling and tapping on him time and again. Each is a situation where he knows I am there and he...

    The Area IV show is just around the corner

    The area IV show is just around the corner. It is at the Illinois State Fairgrounds in DuQuoin, Illinois. This is a really nice facility. Herron Tack will be there to take care of your tack and show supply needs. Tony Fowler of Procut will be there to sharpen your blades, fix your clippers...

    Illinois to allow minis as Service Animals

    Adopted two rescued mini's

    It sounds like these two have found a wonderful home. The only advice I have is to be extra careful if you are the only person in the area when working with them. If you should get hurt, there will be no one to notice otherwise. If you are alone and have one, you might carry a cell...

    Anyone had their horses teeth checked in a halter class? My mini wasn't ready

    I am thinking that --at least in AMHR-- a judge is not allowed to touch your horse and/or equipment while in the show ring. If they want to see something in a driving class or see under the mane in a color class, they are to ask the exhibitor to show them--not move things themselves. This only...

    Another clipper thread...

    LOL--Wish you lived closer, you sure could help. Each year seems to get harder. Last couple of years, we had some help. This year, the help seems to have disappeared and it is just Dave and me. Sure does go fast when there are 4 clippers going at one time or at least 4 people to switch off...

    Another clipper thread...

    I have problems with my hands also and we are clipping 34 mini/ponies this spring and some look a lot worse than your guy. The best clippers I have found so far--to do the body and larger areas--is the double K clippers, but they are sort of pricey. The ones I use for heads and legs and...

    AMHR measurement

    I would not give up hope until she actually goes over. Also, something to consider is what type of stick you have and how you use it. I have a really cheap stick that I know will measure at least 1/2 inch taller than a steward will measure at a show. Also, check her hooves and how she is...
