For my mini aussie, in the summer, I freeze peanut butter or whatever tasty concoction I come up with inside a hollow bone. It takes a while to get all the good stuff out & he doesn't waste a speck of it! You could also try freezing treats in ice, I've tried a few treats in a cool whip bowl...

Well, I have a whole list of things I WANT to get done... does that count?? It seems like spring got skipped over & we dove straight into summer and I'm falling farther & farther behind. I created neck warmers for my geldings, I'm fairly new to sewing, so that was an interesting experience. I...

Great article Marsha Cassada! I live in town, I do most of my driving on the rock driveway or on the paved streets. I have contemplated boots for my guys, just because I think it would make them more comfortable, they do gimp a bit on gravel in my opinion, but after watching them more, the gimp...

Oooohhhh Paula, I knew you would have good pictures!!! My homemade EZ Cruiser (Easy entry) doesn't have a lot of room for extra storage. I had been trying to keep things in my pockets, but it's not comfy to sit with. I'm going to try the fanny pack and possibly a little toolbox. Absolutely will...

Thanks Marty! We've been through a lot, but he's totally my heart horse I really think the other gelding needs to try some Remission or something though, he's getting pretty chunky eating a tiny bit of "mom's feeling guilty" rations and plenty of exercise. So are we all thinking he's got a...

I am so glad I started this topic!! I really appreciate the discussion and all of the ideas of things I don't even think about! Being new to driving, I often times find myself thinking "oh, I'm just driving in the yard, what could go wrong" and then............... Case in point, my 3 yr. old...

Absolutely find a miniature friend in your area! But if that's hard to do (trust me, I understand!) then YouTube & google will be your friends... along with Lil Beginnings! Use the search bar at the top to search for training methods for [discipline] or feeding for [discipline] etc. And if you...

We are slowly working into our summer clip... The reason my vet recommended this blend is because of his broken nose. He wasn't even looking at hay & dropping weight, so she said to entice him with soaked forages & feed a few times a day. I personally think there's too much going on in his diet...

I have made no attempt to hide that I am new with the mini's, and this one has me stumped! I have had a cresty full size horse before, but he was way overweight. This is my 3 year old gelding, gelded as an early 2 year old. I hadn't noticed this until after the dog attack... He dropped about...

I have a harness that doesn't have wire either... it's actually a pretty easy fix! We cut baling wire into the same length (one piece looped around both of them), & used black electrical tape to attach it to the blinders, you have to change the tape occasionally to keep it looking pretty, but...

BSharpRanch.... how SCARY! To have that happen anywhere is bad enough, but out in the open where there are a lot of people and other stimuli, downright nerve-racking! What trick training are you working into your program? Just giving to pressure instead of leaning into it? I'm very interested...

Awww! Congrats!

Any chance anyone saw the video from May 9 in Texas of the Budweiser Clydesdales? I have to give a HUGE kudos to the horses & handlers. How awesomely unflappable they were! It brought up a question for the experienced drivers.... do you train for the unexpected? What do you do? Are there things...

She is a cutie, can't wait to meet baby. I agree with chandab, names usually come instantly when I meet them, or else a little while after. Rosie seems fitting from the picture! Congrats on the new addition(s)!

Interesting topic... I'm concerned about a 3 year old gelding of mine. I'm going to start researching his family along with researching other causes & helpful tips....

Bummer jacks'thunder... I was hoping your creative mind would LEAP to the rescue!! Haha! I've been raiding my husbands workplace... I found some PVC sheeting that isn't too heavy, may build a removable box inside. hmmmmm....

Ok, so I am a class A tightwad, & HATE spending money, anyone else? So my husband is my polar opposite... he bought this bag when he was in Japan last year, then decided he hates it, so he threw it out. Now, I'm not one to let a bag, of all things, go to waste, but this thing is huge! It's 25"...

Wait a second... does that mean that I am responsible for my husband's decisions? Trust me, he makes plenty without talking to me! I don't think she should be responsible for what he said and definitely shouldn't be banned. What a joke. But like Debby said, I read that/heard that as every owner...

Definitely add some pictures. We love watching the progress of these little guys! I won't comment as to breed due to my own inexperience, but size sounds to me like ponies. Good luck, this is a GREAT place to learn & get information! Welcome!

Oh my goodness. Cuteness overload, she is ADORABLE! It's a good thing I'm not anywhere nearby, or I would be living with her & Shylo! We absolutely will need more pictures! Congratulations on a safe foaling!
