Oh Goodness, it sounds like my house!!! If it helps any at all, I wrap their leg, foot, etc in a towel and then wrap vet wrap around it. Then I pour warm water and epsom salt over it until it is soaked through... I add a little more every few minutes just to keep it really hot and wet. Of...

I realized my mistake after I reread the posts. I really like this harness but am realizing that not only do I have a beer budget but I am going to need to build an addition onto the house just to store harnesses and carts. But doggone it I am having so much fun!!

You will know if your horse has thrush by the odor. It's a horrible smell when you clean their feet. A healthy hoof won't stink. I can tell from 5 feet away if somone's horse has thrush when they are picking their feet. There are several things you can use that you can get at the drug store...

Awwww.. gee, I just got the doofus award in May but I guess I will send Marty an email. It's amazing what thoughts go through your mind in the three seconds between the moment you realize that your ____ is grass and the moment that it hits it!! It all seemed to have happened in slow motion.

So much for 0 balance....

Finding a man that will work is a whole other thread. I thought once about putting a personal ad in for a man with power tools but then I thought someone might take it the wrong way.

As some of you are aware, I have been trying to get carts and harnesses balanced and adjusted. I have a Frontier EZ entry cart and I was told that I could adjust the seat back to get better balance. Lo and behold, I discovered I could. After I had made adjustments in the seat, I decided to...

He is my largest. The shaft length is why I was trying the smaller cart. I guess they could be adjusted as he is my largest horse at 36 inches. This cart balances easily even with two of us in it. I finally got the collar adjusted up where it would STAY up by the end of the drive. It took...

I don't have any other information but this happened at the same time as the lady with the 500 cats. One mini was put down and I don't know what happened to the other. Pr. George's Health Chief Quits After Charges By Ray Rivera Washington Post Staff Writer Friday, July 15, 2005; Page B05...

And thank everyone for all of the feedback. I learned a ton from looking at the pictures in the first place. It's very different than trying to figure out what everything looks like when I am driving. Then I learned a ton more from all of your comments and even though I tend to be a bit hard...

I started another thread with the larger cart and harness adjustments. Other than the breast collar, I'd be interested in hearing comments.

I really like this harness. Did you say it was from Carriage House? Do you have closeups of the "2nd Edition"?

These are with the larger, better balanced cart. One thing I want to note is that I made some adjustments to the breast collar and then did a couple turns around. You will notice that in some of the pictures, it has slid down way too low. We stopped and adjusted several times. The change I...

Thanks Whitney, Believe it or not, the only way I could lighten up on contact with Rambo would be to drop his head entirely and in one of the pictures I had unintentionally done just that. I am going to work on getting him to accept it more. Of all the pictures Lexi took there is only one...

I couldn't find a very good picture of Cola but the first shot here is at our state fair and our first show. Boy were we clueless. I have learned so much on the forum. I was told at the show that Cola was the wrong type to show. That he was not refined enough and was the old style... This...

Rabbitsfizz, I will put him to the larger cart and get pictures today if I can persuade my daughter out into the heat with the camera. The last picture I posted, he is standing still so there is not draft on the traces and in the last picture I originally posted, we are on a slight downhill...

Very cute pictures on your website.

He is beautiful!! I love bays and he looks so sleek and shiny! I like the "Maxi-Minis" especially for driving.

Leia, This is a shot of him from head on so you can see the distance between the shafts. Thanks for all of your help and Margo's too. Margo, I do believe it is a Frontier cart. Kim, what kind of clips did you use for the breeching?

Thank you all!! I will try to get someone to take pictures after the next workout and see if it makes a difference. Rambo and I are going down to Catalyst Driving Center next week to take a lesson with Shelly. I am looking forward to it but I haven't had much of a chance to work with him...
