I'll try to give better explantation, maybe more details will help. There is an app for CPR events, to notify people when someone nearby needs CPR, so if they are trained, and choose to get involved, they can. The app also notifies on other fire department things, like car accidents, structure fires...

Quelah

It might be, If the app is such that it chimes wants to remind you or you can choose to have it keep going off like an alarm clock. Do you know if it has those two different options?

Quelah

I wish but no! May be a better analogy. You know how in most smart phones there is a date reminder option, so say if your riding lesson is tomorrow you can set it to alert you a day before or two hours before an hour before and so on. When the alert goes off, usually it chimes once and a little bubb...

I guess i can join in, since driving bridles have been hung up for good and saddles pulled back out, even if western for now. DH had emergency colic surgery in November and planned restorative colic surgery 6 weeks ago so the last 6 months has been...a blur...and I have done no riding. It's working ...

Quelah

If you didn't already know this about me, confession, I am a total Luddite. This i must throw myself on the mercy of my betters in this. I will try to explain, I will probably fail, be patient with me. Do any of you know of an app that sounds a chime when something happens, and has an option that yo...

Quelah

Of course you can! You're a brave, talented, athletic rider with a nice horse! 30 years ago (OMG I'm getting old) when I was all of those things with a not quite so fancy horse (OTTQH) I showed 2nd a few times with very occasional lessons just to see if I could do it and I did and we got scores in t...

Ditto this, and stop ripping the scabs off. Not necessary, painful for horse and dangerous for you.

Quelah

Gorgeous! I think you are quite close (if not already there as soon as they are all old enough) to having a nicely matched four-in-hand!

Equine Loss of Use Insurance. Equine Loss of Use Insurance will reimburse you for a percentage of your horse's insured value should they sustain a career ending injury, illness, lameness or other issue that warrants them as PERMANENTLY unusable for their intended use Another big difference between ...

Apologies if someone else has made this point, but there's at least one major difference between a $75K truck and a $75K horse. For a while at least, the truck will be UNDER WARRANTY :lol: . And even a major going wrong happens that's not a warranty thing (collision for example) it can and will be f...

The vet that discovered and published the source of HYPP also received death threats prior to publishing. She was faculty at UC Davis, was a rough time for her, brave lady.

Quelah

that is so cool!!!

Quelah

adorable!!!

Quelah

I'm so sorry for you, your daughter, and the lovely Sera.

Quelah

Holy god. No, just no. Xan you are a saint, I hope your SO realizes that. I think another horse is in order. If he balks at that, tell him then another HOUSE is in order, to accommodate the guests. Horse is cheaper no? Well behaved houseguests get hotel rooms, and rental cars. The only houseguests I...

We're in need of a new comforter, our down comforter is getting old and sad, and had been planning on getting another of the same, but then I got a copy of the Vermont Country store catalog (it's VERY entertaining) in the mail and they have silk comforters and (wavy out of focus screen for flashback...

Not good. He either has a non-lymphoma cancer or an autoimmune colitis. Appetite and energy has returned. The plan is to start him on steroids which should suppress either for awhile until he crashes again. I'm sorry to hear this :( what about the sand? Where was he getting it and was it not a fact...

Josette he does look like a nice boy. Listed as a KWPN but his sire Whiskei is a Dutch harness horse, and the dam? Her name is Downylands Daisy - I wonder what she is. I wonder how they do in eventing? No performance record to be seen for sire or dam. Seller is in Scottdale AZ but her 13 "KWPN...

The AAEP convention is this weekend in San Francisco so many of our regular vets may be out of town. Convention runs Saturday through Wednesday, Plan accordingly

When I purchased the full sibling to your new horse, I thought it quite sensible to bring Spooky home in the horse trailer. I texted my local vet a pic of Spooky in the trailer with the message “bringing home another rescue, can you come have a look this afternoon?”

Quelah

Yes it is, she's local to me and completely legit. She was honored by our fire district after her work in the North Bay fires last year.

I bathe a LOT. One I'm in California, two I have three black horses and one black and white pinto. Anything that sweats gets rinsed, I use the Vetrolin hose end shampoo sprayer at least once a week on the horses in work. I managed big show barns for many years and I don't really dig "grooming&q...

The love of my life for many many years was a mare. Now I have geldings. My two dearest friends had/have mares that made me hate mares. My friend's Belgian mare kicked me on a trail ride (unprovoked), my Shire mare's quick reaction saved my leg. She saw it coming and spun away so I got a tap not a s...

Unfortunately most equine disciplines someone is using electricity for more than keeping horses off fences. Not just rodeo and racing, there some well known names in the FEI disciplines that do it too. When the stakes are high, everything gets dirty at the top I've found. Not saying everyone does it...

Super cute and I'm so happy for you!

Quelah

Try COTH, i think she’s been on there.

Quelah

Just saw this post, haven’t been on board in a while. I was listening to the scanner when this was happening (I’m on the BoD of a local fire district and have gotten to be a bit of a radio addict). I was so relieved to hear it was “just” employee trailer. I’d already called some friends with the “sh...

Well DONE Kammie! So glad all are well, retained placentas are quite common in draft mares and can be very problematic. Fingers crossed no further troubles from that. Kammie looks amazing, beautiful condition, tip of the hat to you

Quelah

Xan I'm so sorry :(. That day you took him side saddle in Golden Gate Park was the day you became one of my heroes. I shudder to think the mischief the General and Freeway are getting into, the far side of the bridge has undoubtably gotten a little more rowdy since the Orange horse arrived! (((Xan)))

This. I don't see the need, I'll take a vet with good eyes any day thanks.

I'm so sorry

we try to keep them so safe

I'm so happy for you, I thought your riding days were over! Yay for getting back in the saddle

Not even the same horse! Well done!

I would love to try a sleep number but the $$$

Quelah

Thanks! I broke my back badly about 10 years ago and it gets unpleasantly stiff if I sleep for more than 3 hours. Maybe it is what it is, other than not sleeping through the night I can't complain too much but it's time for a new mattress anyway. I think the purple weighs about 150 lbs, our conventi...

Quelah

It's time for a new mattress. Thinking about going rogue and trying a Purple. Seems pretty low risk with the return policy. Has anyone here tried one?

Quelah

Wonderful to see you! Welcome!!

Quelah

Fingers crossed for the prospect. Let me know if it doesn't pan out and I'll send your/his criteria out into the draft world. Often better that way than the 30 day wonders you see advertised on FB

Quelah

Awwwww thank you for sharing!

Quelah

Some plants as they mature get a coating that protects them from herbicides, star thistle is one, if it's mature you have to wound it first. Smaller fresh growth is easier to kill. Cut it let it grow a few leaves then spray.

Quelah

Mine aren't so spooky as I try to get them used to all sorts of things from a very young age, so that by the time I'm ready to ride them they are mostly dead quiet and very laid back individuals that cope with most things. Take the time to do the groundwork and handling and this will really help yo...

Second opinion yes, never a bad idea. I definitely would in your case. I got a second opinion on a friend's mare one time, saved the mare a surgery and a year's layup. She died years later of basically old age, with the condition that the surgery was recommended for still present, as it never really...

Yay!!!!

I've offered and sent 10% non refundable deposits on horses far away to give myself a day to think about it and set up vetting. Bought both so it worked out ok. They were rare to find horses, so I didn't want to chance someone else getting ahead of me.

Quelah

Congratulations!!!

Thank you for bringing this up Martha. If the spotted one and I make it to the show ring this will be an issue for me. Oh I was spoiled showing Jet for those years. Training in shorts and t shirt and showing in a short dress, at night mostly so no sun! Wait, you mean I can't show dressage in worn th...

Pic of darling fluffy Bulls.

Quelah

Dilemma solved. I found two darling little stuffed Bulls, one long horn and one Hereford, and a copy of Ferdinand which I will be happy to read to him since it was a favorite of mine, and probably the reason I've taught most of the range bulls around here to eat carrots out of hand
