Mine is now 12. I nearly killed him last December hitting him with my car, but he's recovering nicely.

Anyone else still have their pups?

Tarlo Farm

Me too Chisamba. She was the first person to reach out to me in the old UDBB. Such a lovely person. I hope her husband is doing well. Such a shock.

Tarlo Farm

Anyone else remember Sac and her blind horse? She did a video of him wandering around their indoor with the May Erlewine song "Shine On" playing. It was tear jerking.

Better yet, anyone able to FIND that video??

Tarlo Farm

It's pretty wild. Supposedly "48 Hours" is taping. All the "bombshells" LK promised seem to be coming for the defense testimony. What horrible, horrible people she and her BF are.

Tarlo Farm

That's so horrible and I'm soooo sorry for you and your kitty. I'd want to do some killing myself.

Tarlo Farm

Anybody else watching it occasionally?

Tarlo Farm

Hoping as the power comes back on we can hear from our friends down south. How are you coping? What a horrible, horrible situation. The weather definitely messed with Texas.
And it seems your utility companies ignored the warnings.

Tarlo Farm

Who would want to keep a horse like this? It has nothing to recommend it. It is dangerous, unfriendly, has health issues and is not even rideable? Just looking at this from an objective person's perspective, I would not waste one more cent on this horse. Can you imagine a non-horsey person reading ...

Tarlo Farm

I volunteered at our local Health Dept Friday. First time, just organized folks into one of two lines; Pfizer or Moderna. However, it was Teacher Day with our local teachers getting their second doses, and since I retired six or seven years ago, it was a BLAST seeing friends and some colleagues I'd ...

Tarlo Farm

Coming late to this Rye. I'm so, so, sorry. Reading through for the first time it's horribly apparent how rapid and abrupt and unexpected. Hugs to you and yours.

Tarlo Farm

Yes. The holidays can be especially hard - or amazingly wonderful in a no-drama way.

Thinking of you Dresseur.

Tarlo Farm

These are great, and Piedmont, the dirty one is hysterical!

Tarlo Farm

Since it's Christmas time:

Tarlo Farm

She got back to me. She's had bone grafts on her spine and is in inpatient rehab for two weeks. Broke her left hand - her dominant hand - when she fell. Laid on the floor until the police arrived for a "wellness check" her uncle called in because he couldn't get ahold of her. For how long,...

Tarlo Farm

What happened??? So glad to hear this, but what/how??

Tarlo Farm

Oh no... No advice, just wishing you - and the poor horse - good luck.

Tarlo Farm

Thanks. She's in rehab right now. I left her a message to call as soon as she can or wants too - a mutual friend had notified me - no word yet. I don't know what I'd say to people if I had that diagnosis. This is awful.

Tarlo Farm

Just found out a friend has been diagnosed with this. Sounds HORRIBLE; staph infection between bone marrow and the bone, causes weakness and failure of the bone wall. Often only stopped by amputation. So far, it sounds like they've done a debridement and bone graphing. Can hardly believe it - this i...

Tarlo Farm

Congratulations!!

Tarlo Farm

Yep. I've broken mine at least once and bruised it at least two other times. Awful, slow recovery. In my experience, it's best to let it heal thoroughly rather than try to gut out the pain. Get a donut cushion to sit on and carry it everywhere. No one who's broken their tailbone will laugh, and the ...

Tarlo Farm

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 ...

Tarlo Farm

A year already?!?!?! Congratulations, you have rocked it from the beginning!

Tarlo Farm

Michigan just tightened restrictions - and the Trump WH has again called for citizens to "rise up" against our Governor, who some of you may remember, had a bunch of militia idiots planning to kidnap her and hold a "trial". I'm am so DONE with that puke and his minions. Our local...

Tarlo Farm

Congrats Blob! This will be one to remember for sure! Usually I drive 250 miles to my Bro and SIL for Thanksgiving and my sister flies in from Canada. At Christmas, Bro and SIL join me for Christmas. This year is all up in the air, but I think I'm going to pull the plug on Thanksgiving and just stay...

Tarlo Farm

One day at a time, one hoof in front of the other. You'll be fine.

Tarlo Farm

Numbers spiking here in Michigan too. Last night at the grocery store I did a double take at a younger couple with no masks (we're "No shirt, no shoes, no mask, no service"). I didn't say anything to them, but I will the next time I see someone out inside a public store without masks. If y...

This board has a pretty active training thread that we all enjoy. Glad you’ve found us!

Old enough to remember you.

Tarlo Farm

So true. And the Dems need to help re-build Unions and the middle class. And the religious stuff entered with Reagan.

Tarlo Farm

Honestly, I thought since the base got their judge, the turnout would be MUCH smaller. We do need to find how to reach those 70 million Americans who thought this guy was qualified to run the (formerly) most influential country in the world.

Tarlo Farm

Or MM decides his health is now more important than getting that SCOTUS judge. Wait...

Tarlo Farm

Yes. The work Georgia - and Arizona - did was amazing and wonderful!! Now for those senators.

Tarlo Farm

That's so sad, and simply life. I'm sorry for you. I know it's still difficult to lose someone who was a great friend in our younger years.

Tarlo Farm

You have gotten great advice from others here. I have nothing to add, in spite of going through this as well, though I was the one who insisted on the divorce due to his increasing erratic behavior and drug abuse. One day at a time. You will get through this. I used to say to myself; "By this t...

Tarlo Farm

Awwwww! Years ago I had property along a river with a pond. In the winter I'd see their slide tracks in the snow. Super lucky for you!!

Tarlo Farm

Will the lies on tape, the lives unnecessarily lost, the continued economic loss due to not handling the virus correctly in the beginning be enough? WHAT in the HELL is the matter with his supporters???? I am prefacing this by saying I am not a supporter. I did not now nor ever will vote for him. H...

Most of us will need it sooner or later. Good luck, looking forward to your stories!

Tarlo Farm

I think you got punked for the combined Emergency Visit AND farm call. I get one or the other, but not both.

Tarlo Farm

Lovely!! I too am a fan of bays. Nice an uber experienced rider put some "regular" riding time on him already.

Tarlo Farm

I'm changing her name to Gem. Because she is. Somewhere in her past she has some good, solid training. I have to undo six years of pounding around in a back yard, head up, under-neck muscle tensed, back dropped, but she gets it. She's a tiny bit sour and spoiled; momentary resistance when riding awa...

Tarlo Farm

Anybody know why George Morris' victim also has a life-time ban?

Tarlo Farm

Congrats. She looks nicely put together. What are your plans for her? I have a couple little friends age 9 and 6 who have out-growing plunking around on my old sway-backed shetland and are not ready to ride my big riding horse. She's for them. And other kids. But I wanted a pony big enough for me t...

Tarlo Farm

Congrats - she is a beautiful pony! And, the Men of Mayhem - is that the litter that Sac (or someone else?) rescued and placed with UDBB members? If so, what a blast from the past! He is Canyon! Ten years old this spring. Best. Dog. Ever. (of course I say that about all my dogs, but I REALLY mean i...

And another one because I think she's so cute.

Tarlo Farm

She was VERY surprised I knew how to get her to lunge. And that's my Man of Mayham, Clay with her.

Thanks. I can't read the brief without creating an account. I can see waiting a year, but not two years, or worse, never.

Tarlo Farm

Thanks Exvet, I was hoping you'd chime in. Can you find and share that recent article?

Tarlo Farm

Seriously. Makes me CRAZY some of my (younger) best friends have this (could be) wonderful 22 month old retriever they haven't neutered. They aren't totally effective owner/trainers, and he's getting big and obnoxious. And I LOVED this dog as a pup. I don't think they're going to neuter him either -...

Tarlo Farm

Literiding, what a lifestyle change! I'm so glad it wasn't cancer, raising a glass to better health and the wonderful home you found for both your equine buddies - and the wonder of assisting another you - a passionate, compassionate, caring horsewoman! Well done, and get well!
