He is so cute! Lucky little horse!

I have 2 donkeys and 2 mini horses here in NW Connecticut !! You are so going to enjoy your retirement with your new little critters! Welcome to the forum.

Yes, you are right, I have shared stories about Lady on this forum. She was the best ever!! Thought I'd also share how I gave Lady her Prascend. I use to drill holes in about 30 (a months worth) Senican Low Sugar Horse Treats at a time and place a 1/4 tab of Prascend into the treat. Then I put...

How nice of you to take on an older wee one. Charlie is a very lucky boy. I've had a couple of horses with Cushings. I adopted a pony a few years back that had PPID and no teeth...not a one! I bet he was at least 30 when I got him. He was part of my little herd for about 3 years and I have...

`Welcome to the forum and good luck with your new minis. Do you care to share names or pictures?

I bought these for the first time a few weeks ago. My 2 donks and 2 minis like them just fine. I got no complaints from them :).

Hi from Connecticut. What a sweet little boy! I hope you have fun teaching Cookie to drive and hopefully you'll follow up with updates.

It's been drizzling all day today and in the mid 40's. Yuck! I've still got my wood stove going and it's May! Yesterday was sunny and almost 70. I'm trying to decide whether or not to start planting my vegetable garden, but every time I think I may start planting, the temp's go back down...

Welcome from NW Connecticut and OMG how freakin' adorable!!

I totally agree with this post with regard to people not getting timely responses to questions. What bothers me more, is when individuals come onto the forum to post a question or concern about an injury or illness of a horse and then they disappear. I never get know what happened. If things...

I now understand that anyone that is a member of the forum can chime in, but prior to joining, I had zero experience on forums and didn't know what to do. I felt like I was interrupting an ongoing conversation and at times still do. No biggie, It's probably, just me. I think the ribbons had...

First I have to say that when I first joined this forum I felt very welcomed to the site. I've been a member of the forum for almost 2 years now and have learned a great deal from others, which I appreciate. I belong to no other social media or forums. No Facebook (Meta). No TikTok. No...

Yesterday, I took my boys, Rocky and Pepper out ground driving for about 1/2 an hour each. It seems like they're ready for the next step. Pulling a tire? Wood plank? Anyway, they appear to be more ready for the next step then I am !

I really hate to do this, but I have to back out of the Book Club 2024. Not that I have contributed to this thread at all, other than suggesting a book to read (The Invincible Miss Cuss) and committing to the discussion afterwards, but unfortunately I have way too many things going on right...

Never mind, I see you said “HE had his leg caught……” Thanks for posting the video.

Fascinating! Colt or Filly?

Welcome from NW Connecticut. Your little herd is perfect! I currently have 2 mini horses and 2 mini donkeys. Previously, I had 1 mini mare (Lady). I wanted to get her another mini horse as a companion but couldn’t find any in my area, so I got her 2 donkey friends. When I had this little...

I too, am sorry about your dog Pepper. It is incredibly expensive these days when we need to get medical care for our furry friends. I am a cat person, so I have no experience with this type of injury in dogs, but I do know the angst of trying to do what's best for my pets. Good luck in your...

I'm in NW Connecticut and one of my mini horses has started to shed like crazy. The other who was on Prascend for the last 6 months for PPID has not yet started to shed. Interesting thing, his bloodwork just came back so low that the vet now thinks he may have been misdiagnosed with PPID (by...

Welcome. I think you'll find this forum is a great place to share the experiences you have with your minis and a "go to" place when you have questions or concerns.
