Wow! Get that money before time runs out.

I guess in the end you should be glad these real or fake PI's contacted you

Hayburner

Congrats! He's adorable

Love the ame you chose.

Hayburner

Loved my Petrie boots! I have a pair that I got fitted for probably 15 years ago, before zippers and they are a field boots. I retired them a year ago! Only because the leather around the ankle started to crack. I did take a few years off from riding so they probably would have worn out sooner. I en...

Hayburner

Khalil, keep us posted when you get yours and what you think of it.

Hayburner

He is adorable! Good for you for getting on from the ground on a youngster.

I need to get going with my Pivo.

Hayburner

Just checking to see if anyone is using this brand of oil for general overall health, including skin allergies? Since flax oil is temperamental in hot and cold weather, I thought I'd give this in a try. Probably had her on it a month (1 1/2 pumps 2 x a day) giving low amount as she does not need it ...

Hayburner

My body worker has shown me quite a few techniques to use between her visits! She always marks down the areas I need to work on and what to do where. I love her!
Once this Corona virus is lessened I'd like to take a course too or at least get the books DVD for my own knowledge

Hayburner

Thanks Blob, I may look in to trying this saddle out. It certainly can't hurt to have them ship one to me.

I have so little faith in the fitters that are local to me. People rave about them and a particular brand, then boom they are bashing the fitter and the brand!

Hayburner

Thanks Blob! I wonder Why there no reviews or chats on COTH about this brand? From your comparison to the Isabell, it could be something g I'd like. I have read great reviews about the Equipe Saddles, so that might be another for me to try. I rally should just leave well enough alone since my mare h...

Hayburner

Thanks for the update. I love a locked in feel, that's why I am so attached to my old Wintec Isabell. I really would love something that puts me in a better position and with an external block. I have tried an Albion but I didn't feel secure in it and the MacRider I bought used won't fit her. It's s...

Hayburner

Blob. Are you still loving the Dynamic saddle?

I have tried to find reviews and can't find much on this saddle.

Thanks

Hayburner

Fingers crossed it's not a recurrence!

Hayburner

Lots of great suggestions here! Depending on what all your body worker does or doesn't t do, you may want to start with a chiropractor. We have a few different ones come and they are all different in what they do. My horse was having issues bending to the right, just so happened we were due for body...

Hayburner

Tanga, my mare also yawns quite a bit before I put the bridle on. I give her a few GumBits , let her chew them up and let her yawn as much as she wants. I figure she is releasing her jaw which is a good thing!

Hayburner

Too big for my girl who is only a 72 in Rambo

Just thought I would suggest packing the liners in those vacuum bags, the weight will be the same, but the size of the box will be significantly smaller

Hayburner

Congrats Paula! I hope to post that I cantered too. My mare has a tendency to jump into it and go very fast. Will probably give her a little sedative before we try again. I did canter her when I was test riding her but with her preganacy set back, then a long injury rehab I haven't even thought to t...

Hayburner

Hi Blob, Yes, I bought them. I haven't even tried them out! I was worried that I would not be able to let the reins loosen easily and riding a super sensitive mare letting go can be important. I did buy a pair of PS of Sweden softy reins with rein stops and I love them! They have really helped me ke...

Hayburner

My mare also seems to have seasonal allergies that I still haven't won the battle on. Next step will be allergy testing. A few years ago she had a significant ankle injury, the equine specialist had us use a few products to aid in the healing process. One of them was Equithrive, even tho testing was...

Hayburner

Congrats Paula! That's my advise to the younger generation too. So easy to start, so very hard to quit! The sad part is the tobacco companies are putting more and more additives in to keep you hooked! I know I need to stop, but I lack the motivation and willpower to quit. You have done a great job o...

Hayburner

My mare was out in a herd for her first 5 years, she doesn't care about much! Rain, snow, thunderstorms, flies, seems not much bothers her, she loves being out.

Hayburner

Hayburner

Well maybe someone will design a helmet that looks very similar to a top hat

Hayburner

The kitten I found 2 months ago that seemed days from death also found a home!

The vet loved her and kept her! Made me so happy and worth my and my dear friends efforts.

Hayburner

Glad you were able to get to the, before they went to the main roads. Hopefully, your boy is fine and isn't sore from his adventure. I am OCD about stall doors and gates. I check, check again and recheck! Usually, I will even say the word locked when doing up my horses stall door at nite. I know it ...

Hayburner

Glad you took an inventory of what is in the house, be sure to take pictures too! Not to scare you but he may bring up the value of your horse and associated tack,etc. Just prepare yourself for that just in case it does get ugly. A friend is moving to another state and significantly downsizing and w...

Hayburner

Dresser, Please do not jump the gun and sell your horse! Your horse is support you will need In This journey. You may have to cut back on a few things to afford the horse for awhile, but things have a way of working out. I always felt God brought horses in to my life after my marriage as he knew I w...

Hayburner

Blob, my mare does this too. She does get bodywork every other month and she does get tight in her rump and her hamstrings. I work on massaging those areas.

Hayburner

Have you sat down and talked this thru with him? Would going to marriage counseling be of any benefit? Is he really done or is he shooting from the hip for other reasons? I have been separated for almost 10 years and a divorce will probably come next year. Unfortunately, I lived for over 5 years wit...

Hayburner

Exvet, that's kind of what I am afraid of, taking her off prescription strength hydroxyzine for a supplement that may not be as effective. Antihistamine wise, the Equishield would be stronger. Since my vet suggested the Equishield shampoo and spray I'll contact her for her opinion. I will add flax t...

Hayburner

Exvet, thank you for the reply and suggestions. I was comparing the PP and the Equishield SA. The Equishield has a higher level of Quercetin 300mg vrs PP 105mg. Which isn't the Quercetin a natural antihistamine ? So it might give more relief than the PP? The Equishield also has Vit E, MSM, flax, ric...

Hayburner

My poor mare is still quite itchy! This started at the end of July. Tried Benidryl, hyroxyzine and now switched to Zertec. Also purchased medicated shampoos and sprays by Equishield IBH added Spirulina to her feed and yet she's still itchy! Since I thought it was bug related, I thought or prayed tha...

Hayburner

You can also wear the Smartwool socks in the summer, they breathe. Love my Thinline saddle pads, for the summer I bought a contoured one which fits my mare nicely. I like full sized ones with the back on track for the winter months. Love those tiger tongue sponges! They are useful for many things! I...

Hayburner

I always liked green on my mainly bright chestnut pinto.
I love purple but not on him!
He also looked nice in certain shades of blue.

Why not get one with multiple colors and something super flashy for your pretty mare

Hayburner

Good luck with your surgery! My sister had it done and had lens put in and she also no longer needs glasses. She does need to wear cheaters for close up stuff.

I always ask my eye dr if I have them yet as I would love to get lenses in so that I can quit wearing my contacts/glasses.

Hayburner

Thanks Khall, I ordered Spirulina from Smartpak and also the Equiderma lotion . Her back legs seem to be the most itchy. With fall coming hopefully, this will all subside.

Hayburner

Very Nice!

I follow Cedar on Facebook, she does a great job.

Hayburner

Thanks for the link!

Hayburner

Good to know all is ok with you. Family issues always have to come first and they do consume so much of physically and mentally.

Katz is super stunning!

Hayburner

Blob, that's the odd thing she is not raw, missing hair or bloody. Tho, her back legs do have some scratched areas where she has nicked herself and caused it to bleed. Going to start a new post and see if anyone has had their vet recommend Apoquel. Also, going to contact my vet to see what she think...

Hayburner

Well, my poor mare is still super duper itchy! She's been on 12 Hydroxyzine 50 mg 2 times a day and I see little improvement, tho her attitude has improved! LOL I was reading up on using Spirila and I'm not sure I want to use it since it can be toxic if not harvested/grown safely. She won't eat grou...

Hayburner

Thank you Straightford, the saddle I was trying and think is nice (tho, fitter would not allow a few days trial) I had to work on Putting my leg in the correct position . It could very well have been because I was not having my legs nice and loose and/or an open enough hip angle. Not sure if it's wo...

Hayburner

Since I am looking for a saddle, just wondering if a saddle can really put you and your legs in the correct position?

Many Saddles state they put your leg in the correct position but do they?

Do extended stirrup bars help?

Hayburner

Oh my, hopefully she chimes in with an update and all is well

Hayburner

Exvet, you may also want to look at DP Saddles. If I had a rep nearby I would definitely try one for my mare.

Hayburner

Exvet. Did you look at Albion's Fabrento model?

Hayburner

Ok, so I asked after fitter texted me if I could trial the saddle for a couple of days to be sure of my selection, No Response. I to,d her I wanted to be sure I liked it and to make sure it did t fit like my other saddle that I didn't like. 2 days later she calls, we get disconnected and she didn't ...

Hayburner

Yes Blob, very funny how we both were using the same brand and model of Saddles! The seat on the model I test ride cannot be changed, tho I wonder if I could get Buffalo leather which would be a better grip than calf skin. Silk, thanks for the positive review of your Albion saddle. AmityBee, yes, I ...

Hayburner

Blob, I also have a Frank Baines Elegance that I will be selling! I've had it a good 10-15 years but really didn't use it much once I found the Wintec Isabell. It's still in very good shape with nice soft leather. I just didn't feel locked in enough in it. At that time I was doing more trail riding,...

Hayburner

Blob, BTW what did you end up buying?

Hayburner

Exactly Blob! I'm afraid that a 10-15 min ride isn't enough to make a firm and accurate decision on a saddle. Also, when spending 5k, I want to be sure I LOVE it. My Friend ordered a custom saddle after riding in the demo and when hers came her horse wasn't happy in it. He seemed ok in the demo and ...
