Thank You

It's been a 1 1/2 years and I still think of him many times a day....he was my first horse, my heart horse, the best horse...his ashes will go with me when I go...

Hayburner

Thanks for the responses! If there is a gimmick out there, I'll find it! :D Blob. It looks like the majority of the rein is Velcro. Since my mare really needs her stretchy walk to relax her I did ask if I could get the soft gloves which have less Velcro rather than the original. That's it Blob, soft...

Hayburner

Montel Williams has it, I've seen him on Dr Oz talking about what he does to combat the disease thru diet, exercise and a few other things that are working for him.

He may have something on-line that goes into more depth.

Hayburner

I was using the soft thin rubber reins from Nunn Finer which I Loved. But, they are pony reins and now that she is enjoying a stretchy walk they aren't quite long enough and they also are not available with stops/notches. Right now I'm using Stubben leather laced reins which are fine, but I think st...

Hayburner

Healing prayers coming for Mikhail. Catching this early will hopefully get it to relapse. I have a dear friend with it she has had it for many years, and gives herself injections. She had early symptoms, but choose to ignore them. She is doing very well, and is very active which I think helps her. A...

Hayburner

God Bless your friend for following her gut! So sad that her new horse has this diagnosis, you have to wonder how this happened and where it happened. I had many, many xrays done on my mare during the PPE, but I never thought to ask them to do the neck or back, I was more concerned with legs, ankles...

Hayburner

So proud of you Paula!

Hayburner

Just saw these on Facebook they look to be Reins with Velcro where you would normally hold the reins and a pair of gloves with Velcro. They are supposed to help with keeping a consistent connection, which I do have issues with letting the outside rein get loopy. Since my mare loves to do a stretchy ...

Hayburner

:P your right Tarlo finding something twice at Marshalls is nearly impossible! I recently bought Nivea Enriched which is supposed to be good for 48 hours, what a joke. It did nothing for me. I will say using a body scrub a few times a week before lathering on the lotion really helps. I use to also l...

Hayburner

Tarlo, Wow I'd guess Walmart is quite a bit cheaper than QVC.

With just the start of winter and I'm already getting dry skin! I use a scrub once a week then lather on the Josie Maran whipped body cream.

Hayburner

Tarlo. I get the Josie Maan from QVC I think Sephora also sells it. It's made with maroccan oil.

Hayburner

Am I too late to submit?

Thanks

Hayburner

Today brought out another annoyance!
I have a co-worker that when she emails, she puts it in "text" language. This is business communication not texting your buddy down the street ! UGH

Hayburner

Josie Maran whipped body lotion.

Hayburner

I'm so sorry for your and all who loved him loss. He took care of you and others, and he left you in a way that was easier than seeing him slowly decline and having to make the heart wretching decision. A friend lost her horse this summer over nite and the vet did an autopsy and said he went peacefu...

Hayburner

KathyK - When I quit a few years ago and was off them for 3 years thru hypnosis I had DREAMS too. I'd dream that I smoked - I'd get up and run all around wondering if I had actually smoked, I would be hysterical..... I tried Chantix/Wellbrutrin and it made me very crazy! I had to go off of it. A co-...

Hayburner

Omg Tuddy that's insane pricing! Mine are $11.20 a pack, thank you Pennsylvania taxes! Ugh

Hayburner

Congrats Paula! Hopefully you never have a reoccurrence of this severe breathing problem. Quitting smoking is very hard to do. I've done it a couple of times, but unfortunately I keep going back to this filthy and now expensive habit. A friend of mine went to smoke Enders years ago and what kept him...

Hayburner

I think I will be joining the ranks of people in saddle fitting nightmares! Lol

Hayburner

Thanks Tanga. There is no shame in riding in a Wintec, LOL. I really love mine ! But my legs do wander in front of the girth and I'm sure part of that is my fault for not working harder at my position. It's hard to work on yourself when you have a wiggly worm and a quick horse between your legs, LOL...

Hayburner

Had a lesson tonight and we were chatting about saddles, fit etc. I asked trainer what she thought of the fit with extra wide gullet, when we felt around and down from her withers the saddle is very tight and as you move your hand down it becomes a lot wider. I don't think the extra wide is right at...

Hayburner

Thanks for the quick response. My mare did get a bit chunky over the summer as she was turned out all nite. I was shocked when the fitter put in the extra wide. But since my mare isn't objecting I hope the fit is right for her. The fitter is an Albion rep and I tried a couple of her Saddles but I di...

Hayburner

A fitter just changed the gullet plate in my Wintec Isabell to extra wide and mare seems happy with that change. Since I am looking for a new saddle to improve my position mostly getting my legs back and under I wonder if tree sizes are "standard". Are all wides the same? Is a wide in one ...

Hayburner

So sorry for your loss of this special and oh so loving mare. She will remain on your heart forever.

Hayburner

Oh my, I have so many, which I contribute to living alone the last few years. Luckily, the barn I am keeps things tidy and boarders better do the same. We would never leave tack in the aisle way! Nor would we never not sweep up. It does bother me that we do not need to pick up manure in the indoor r...

Hayburner

Xan. So sorry you have to make this final decision for him. To lose such a young one and one you have fought so hard to save is heart wrenching. My prayers and healing vibes in this lose are with you. Hugs

Hayburner

Thanks Heddy

Paula. I did see some tights on a website: Carousel horse tack. The storefront is actually near my house. I think they were on the page with close outs.

Hayburner

What is the difference between a tight and breeches? I love full sears so I guess I have only worn breeches. Did you try Tropical Rider? I have a few pair of the Kerrits Sit tight and warm, but honestly I prefer to wear Under Armlir cold gear long underwear under my Fits breeches. Even Dudley Duds a...

Hayburner

I try very hard to recycle as much as I can. I even take cardboard to my business to be recycled. A school very close to my home did have huge trash containers for paper products, for some reason it's been removed. It was always full with newspapers, boxes, etc. possibly, they stopped getting paid b...

Hayburner

Thanks! I'll give it a try. I have a rubber Haas brush that might also help as it certainly works wonders at getting hair off my saddle pads.

Hayburner

Welcome back! Hopefully, it wont be long for you to be on your own again and healthy! You have lots of riding to catch up on...

Hayburner

After you described the situation the work Professionalism came to my mind first.

I also like Discreet.

Ethical

Hayburner

So as not to Thread jack - How do you get shavings or horse hair off of a micro-fiber or fleece cooler?

Thanks

Hayburner

Sounds like the leather backing to the wool is drying out. What type of laundry detergent are you using? I swear by the Leather Therapy Wash and also their rinse for all my leather washables. The Leather Therapy Rinse is great at keeping leather soft and pliable, which would be good for the skin par...

Hayburner

What month do you typically take your mare off Reg-U-Mate for the winter? I'm running pretty low and I'd rather not buy a new bottle until spring, but I also don't want a moody mare if I take her off too soon. Last year she went off the first of December and she gave no outward signs of going in sea...

Hayburner

Very nice....wish I knew if it would fit my PRE mare...she's definitely round....as in she's now in an extra wide gullet on my Wintec..

Hayburner

I play it safe and ride a short ride and I don't go out of my comfort zone, which is pretty much walking and a smidgen of trot. It's taken a long time to even get to this point, walking in a relaxed state, and I'm fearful of trotting by myself. I don't like being the only person at the barn and ridi...

Hayburner

Jingles coming your way.

They should be able to remove Gallies bad tooth with mild sedation.

Hopefully, you will not have to take a long trip with Rip. Fingers crosse dry it's just the pollen and dust.

Healing vibes to both

Hayburner

Thanks Khall - Since I don't have a buddy to go with - being a part of Patrick's group would be safest for me and I think a lot more fun being with a group of like minded "friends". There are a few extra excursions and some lectures in his program, no in-hand unless you are a professional....

Hayburner

One boarder that I once had my tack close to has the filthiest moldiest tack I have ever seen! It's absolutely disgusting! and she's oblivious about it. I can't stand looking at it....I actually asked the BO if I could move my tack as her stuff stunk! So oblivious that she didn't know that horse bla...

Hayburner

Thanks Koolcat !

Hayburner

It would not have bothered me - but, using her name would have been more professional. I guess if it was a man's cubicle he would have said "this guy". Now that I'm 60 something - I would not mind being called a girl or lady. I do dislike when someone calls me ma'am. When I was in my 40's ...

Hayburner

I recently found some exercises that I printed out from I think it was "LynnS"

I think before it shut down, I printed out a lot pages that I have yet to look at again.....

Hayburner

Try getting some of those little or large desiccant packets that come with new shoes, purses and other apparel. Tuck them under your saddle or in your bridle bag. I also throw them in my tack box to help with the humidity/moisture in our tack room. Home Depot sells larger bags that I recently found ...

Hayburner

Thank you for sharing all this valuable information on your two trips. Patrick King is putting together 2 trips in Jan to Portugal at Valenca's. I'm very tempted to sign up for this excursion. All meals, transportation, accommodations, riding, lectures, are included except airfare. I don't have a bu...

Hayburner

I am an independent but also a rep for Albion coming, I'll ask if she can adjust a MacRider. Had a friend try an N2 she was happy with it or their communication. May also have an opportunity to at least sit in an Obrigado, I might be able to tell if it's so,etching I'd like or not. No wonder riders ...

Hayburner

Thank God there are people that still give a crap about others. In my housing plan the elementary school is right across the street from the club house and a parking lot. Do these parents park in the lot, heck NO, they part in the street get their kids out of the car stand around bull crapping barel...

Hayburner

Blob. Thanks for your input. I too read how fully adjustable they were, very secure and comfy that's what peaked my interest. So that's Why I contacted them, they gave me a person in FL, so I didn't contact them until I could find some reviews on the Saddles. Very few reviews,so I posted here . If t...

Hayburner

I used it many times on my mare for the farrier. It works very well, you just have to be sure to get it under the tongue so it enters the bloodstream. We also used it a couple of times when she came back to be ridden after 8 months of stall rest. She finally got over the smoke from the hot shoeing a...

Hayburner

I would suggest and I could be off base, but possibly Spanish or Portuguese riding apparel websites.
