I have a major crush on this horse. http://www.dreamhorse.com/ad/2014195.html

Code3

I wish you were closer! I'm very lucky in that I have my all weather outdoor, and I'm a 15 minute haul to my trainer's place with her covered arena. I do lose some riding time, but surprisingly little. In your situation I would ground drive and play games. Teach them horse agility. Let's hope the st...

I have very limited advice, and that is document document document. And meet with HR, which you are. Boundaries need to be set. Good luck and so sorry you are going through this.

Code3

Chancellor, thank you for your gracious reply. I truly appreciate it.

Code3

I don't have children but IMO seeing someone/something 'killed' on TV is not the same as looking a dead animal in the dead eyes and really understanding death and that there is no coming back to life. Gone, gone, gone. I totally agree with this. It isn't "real" on TV. The person who died ...

Chance, as far as I remember you and I have never butted heads so this isn't personal. But when you write: "In case it isn't crystal clear, please do not post any content from UDBB to DDBB. This is a completely separate board. There are too many people threatening litigation if content from UDB...

Code3

I am so happy for you. She is beautiful!

Code3

Of course, digihorse's long explanation does not completely explain why posting anything from UDBB to DDBB is such an issue either. AGAIN, in theory. You keep saying, "In theory". There is nothing "theoretical" about this issue... there is only reality. Also, I reaf your sticky ...

So sorry!

Thank you... very close to home.

Because of this post, I'm not going to answer. I wish you well, CT, and I wish you compassion.

Code3

Nope. Agree, it would be weird.

Code3

Officers have discretion. Nothing wrong with showing compassion and not issuing a ticket. Nothing wrong with issuing a ticket either although if the goal is to stop the behavior sometimes the stop itself is enough. It sure doesn't hurt to show a little compassion even when issuing a citation. Back ...

Godspeed, Ricky.

Brilliant summation.

Robbie is adorable. I have become a crazy goat lady. After rescuing a goat two and a half years ago, we adopted a second goat as a companion. That goat died (broke my heart, he was the most obnoxious personality but impossible not to love). I have since added more - all either rejects for one reason...

A recent DOJ report says incidents of unprovoked ambushes on police are up during the period of 2008 - 2013, from 200 a year to 250 a year. So the police aren't totally paranoid. The numbers are up and are being reported to them. To put it in perspective, however, ambushes on police were over 500 a ...

Code3

Sorry, if there were credible threats, we would have heard about them. Law Enforcement heard about them and there were links to audio from radio interviews where this happened. But, as posted above, those were proven to not be associated with BLM. Still, there WAS a call to kill police officers ran...

Code3

Jingles! Hard to be so far away.

Code3

So glad someone finally listened!!

Code3

Of course there are. It's part of the dysfunction of the conversation that it has to be said. Because those that are bad are focused on in the media and by certain groups (BLM) who are much maligned by other media does not mean that those groups and those of us concerned about abusive authority don...

Many years ago I supervised the School Resource Officers Team. There was one officer in each of our five high schools. They are a great resource and liaison, and do much to build trust in the community. I totally support having officers in the schools. This deputy was out of line, IMO. What about ta...

Code3

Note there is an exemption for horses that get reactions. I believe this rule is a result of the EHV outbreak here in OCala at HITS a few years ago. They allowed horses to leave the grounds after it was diagnosed.... and other barns were then infected. Then it might be appropriate to make rules reg...

Code3

Awesome!

With the exception of the clot it sounds as if things are moving in a positive direction. Hang in there!!

Code3

Ouch. Glad it wasn't worse but please take your time and follow doctor's orders!

Code3

I like the first, taking the double out of third. The vaccination rule not so much. There are already barns where I can't take my horse due to requirements for vaccinations that I don't give. Luckily the group I hang out with are all on the same page as far as vaccinations. We travel to each others'...

Code3

What a great tribute. Thank you lesson pony and chisamba.

I sing at the barn all the time. And yes, I remember that Smothers Brothers song! Great, now I'll be singing it ALL day!

Code3

I agree with CT. It's not fair to paint Zonder and others as the bad guys for pointing out very real legal issues. Perhaps the issue itself should be addressed instead of fingers pointed and blaming. I'd think a person would be grateful to find out in advance that something is an issue and therefore...

Code3

Thanks guys. It arrived today.

Zippity Doo Da! Very good news.

I use a Micklem on one of my horses and he goes well in it. I use it with a NS bit.

thanks digi. I ordered from Honeyville. Great shipping rate.

I made weave poles by putting fiberglass electric fencing poles in the ground and putting PVC pipe over them. I could pull them out to mow the lawn then pound them back in. That's as far as I got in agility, and I haven't done it for years so I'm not much help.

Code3

My horses are at home but they live outside. I'm in Oregon, in the Willamette Valley which is moderate and usually pretty wet but we're having a drought so everything is still brown. They have a dry lot and about 3 acres of pasture for two horses (three up until August). I threw them a little hay al...

So is the oat flour comparable to oat fiber? Still fed at 1/4 cup a day?

Code3

Does anyone feed it for ulcer prevention? I'm trying to find some and so far have not located any locally. I can order it on the internet but shipping is half as much as cost. Any suggestions on where to find it? Thanks!!

My Arab had rain rot from the time he was a youngster, and had the scars to show for it. He got it whether he was blanketed or not, no matter what supplements I put him on. But he had a depressed immune system due to DSLD, and had to be put down at 19, so not a great example. My understanding is tha...

My guy went for his first beach ride with two experienced horses. While he did prefer to have one of them between him and the ocean, he was calm and well-behaved. On the way back, he was okay being closest to the ocean. We never went into the water on this first trip.

Code3

I love trail riding. I have to trailer out but my Arab is becoming a solid trail pony and is a blast to ride. He definitely prefers trails to arena work. My WB prefers the security of an arena, at least at this point in his life. I honestly hope that changes. I love getting out and I think it is so ...

This is probably an unpopular answer but I don't cross tie. I have seen horses panic and be injured. I saw one horse flip over. As a result I don't cross tie. Having said that, I would break down the training into smaller steps. Will she stand being tied? If not, get her comfortable with that. Get h...

I just turned 61 and cannot for the life of me figure out how that number sounds old and I feel so young. Well, most of the time!! :-) I grew up in California, riding whatever I could. I came up through hunters and jumpers and got my first horse when I was in high school. With the exception of colle...

Code3

I just love your spotty horse! Looks like grand fun.

Code3

Welcome, and YES we are ALL newbies now!

Code3

I'd give it a try and see if it works. It sounds like a quiet herd. My horses are outside 24/7 unless it is raining, then they are in overnight. I think it is so much better for them being out and moving, since they were designed to move and graze, plus they are such social animals. I'm down to two ...

Gone for me too, west coast. Weird. I was just there and that's where I got the link for this site. Knick of time. Sad.
