    I have a new yearling filly and a teeny broodmare! This is Toad Hills Pip Pip Cheerios! She is from Toad Hill Miniatures. She's a buckskin pinto filly, who looks like she will mature around 30 inches. She is extremely sweet! The second photo is her arriving by mini-van! Most recently, we...

    Video of my recently started driving mare.

    Thanks for the compliments and advice! Sometimes she stops so quickly, the cart bounces! LOL! I bought her as a brood-mare, knowing though that she came from a good driving line. About 30 of her 1/2 siblings have been trained to drive, with very good results. They all have similar action and...

    Newbie starting in CDE

    Hi there, What do you mean by "work up to 20 gates". What's a gate? Yes, I truly know nothing about this, but am wondering what to work on with my mare when she comes home from basic training, to head her in this direction.

    Video of my recently started driving mare.

    Thanks, Myrna! Thanks for the whip tip too! Once she is out of her "stand," she is very willing to trot and move out. It is just getting her into first gear! Yes, she is a 1/2 sister to Schutte's "Chunky," who has done so well in the ADS ring. Wayne is training her daughter for us now, so my...

    This is R. Cees Forever in Blu Dreams, my 6 year old mare, with her trainer, Donna Burlo. She has been hitched for about 2 weeks now. What do ya think?

    Training a prego mare and training a donkey jack?

    Thank you so much! The mare in question, Blu Dream, has had 4 weeks with a trainer and is driving very well. We are careful not to get her over-heated or tired. I had started her and had her ground driving well before she left. She is very quiet--we don't know if this is partially because she is...

    Training a Jack to drive?

    I have a yearling Jack, that I bought as a weanling. He has a very sweet disposition. Next year, I will breed him to a few mini-mares, to make a couple little mules. I would love to have him trained to drive, for my donkey crazy hubby. I normally do the ground-work on the little horses, then my...

    Training a prego mare and training a donkey jack?

    Is it ok to start a pregnant mare in the fall, when they are due in the spring? And has anyone had luck in driving a mare with a foal? Also, I have a yearling Jack who is very sweet and quiet. I would like to have him drive for my donkey-crazy hubbie. He will start breeding next year. Making...

    Results of 9/25 Lollii Brother's auction?

    Does anyone have results of today's Lolli Brothers Auction? I have several friends selling horses there and another wanting to buy a certain stallion, and I am wondering how the prices were? Does Lolli Brothers normally publish the results? I hope to attend next year. Looks like great fun!

    Jazz at the nursing home

    How do you potty train her? Does she need to complete a training program or certification to do this? Wonderful stuff you're doing!

    New Yearling Filly!

    We traded our only 2010 foal, a handsome dilute colt, for this little filly. She arrived yesterday and I'm in love! The parts in the picture that look dark brown, are buckskin color-she had just had a bath before the photos were taken! She has one blue eye. She is currently 29 inches , and has...

    Market this year has been good to us!

    We had a rough foaling year, ending up with 1 colt when 6 were expected! However, what a colt! At two months, we were able to arrange a trade for him, that I believe is very favorable to both parties. We received a darling, buckskin pinto yearling filly, and he is going to a farm that shows and...

    Costume Class:Yes, my husband is a clown!

    He is hopefully on the mend! He had to have his gallbladder out. And might have to have part of his esophagus out, if it doesn't heal right. Eeeee! He had been practicing for weeks, his "exit" from the ring---"accidentally" dropping his shorts, to reveal wild Hawaiian shorts under neath! There...
