Re: Will a 22 rifle humanely kill a horse?

It will, i'm quite sure it is what's used in Canadian slaughter houses as it's considered more humane for horses than the captive bolt. I'm happy to say I'm not an expert on this topic, but isn't the intent to render the animal unconscious rather than kill it? I believe they want the heart beating ...

Re: Dogs on the bed, yes it no?

No dogs on our bed when husband and I are in it. But, once one of us gets up to leave, the younger dog Will jump up. Double bed is barely big enough for the two of us, let alone two bigger dogs! The cat, on the other hand, likes to sleep on my hip. And if the ugly orange cat joins us, he will sleep ...

Winter paddock boots

My sorrels simply do not fit in my stirrups. But they do keep my feet toasty on the ground.

So, I need riding shoes. Insulated ones! Ones that will keep my toes somewhat warm at -15C. (Damm cold in Fahrenheit! )

Not too worried about looks, I am all about function over form!

Re: 2016 goals

My goal for this year is to simply ride. And drive. And to enable me to do that, my horses are coming home for the spring, summer, and part of the fall. They can go back to the farm for the winter, though I would rather have them home full time.
