    Correct Location of Whip Holder (AMHR)

    So where on the cart do you actually mount it. That was acutally my question, I am right handed and i would put it on the right. Is it the front of the cart (by the dash) the side, or close to the seat? Seems like the couple that I have seen it is up by the dash so you would have to reach...

    Shampoo/Conditioner?

    We have always bathed with Orvus unless the horse is white or grey then we have used Orvus first followed up with Quic Silver. A good spray with Show Sheen and we are good to go!

    Where to get blades sharpened?

    I mailed mine out to Northern Tails that I found on another thread here. He did a great job, they were back in my hands quickly. http://northerntails.com/ try mailing them there.

    Correct Location of Whip Holder (AMHR)

    I have a whip holder to put on my show cart, what I am not sure of is if there is a correct location to place it. I am showing in AMHR.

    Judge is also a steward at a show

    We are about to attend two shows this summer the steward at the first show is a judge at the second. Somehow that doesn't seem really fair either! Both shows are AMHR.

    Bugaboos!

    What I think is even worse is when it says they must be on a leash and the owners take that to mean put a leash on the dog and let it run loose dragging the leash. I have had more than one tell me the sign said the dog had to be on a leash it didn't say anyone had to be holding it. I mean come...

    Almost Lost Three Ponies Last Weekend.

    I had one that figured out in the summer when the ground was really dry that he could duck under the electric (tape) fence. We didn't know where so we started a stake out to spy on him. We found out where and then we added a ground wire at the bottom. We put him back into the pasture he...

    New Driving Horse

    Wow I guess anytime you share something there is always someone to take the wind from your sails. We are not new to driving, all my horses wear breeching when not in an arena (it road driving, hills etc.) I am fully aware of its purpose. As to the rest everyone is entitled to an opinion and...

    New Member.... Got my New Mini today

    I believe you are ok. You will have to pay a late fee since the papers weren't transferred in a timely fashion but that is definitely worth doing. If I remember correctly it isn't very much.

    How on earth am I going to fix this?!

    The larger the number on clipper blades like Oster and Wahl the closer they clip. That being said we use a 10 or 15 for body clipping horses, go against the hair keeping the entire flat of the blade against the horse. Always clip a clean dry horse whenever possible (and we usually do our first...

    Russet harness with a Dark (almost black) Bay?

    I plan on using a russet harness in AMHR shows on a smokey black (he looks almost Grulla) with a brown mane and tail. Looks really sharp on him.

    Dead foals

    Is there any correlation to number of days gestation and the "thickness" or the sac? Or perhaps the amount of amniotic fluid and the sac thickness, for example the longer the gestation the less fluid therefore the sac begins to mummify making it more difficult to break. Might be interesting to...
