She'll be fine naked and with slats open, they're not that big and she's got a lot of hair and fat. Re your previous question about dividers, when I had to do emergency hauls for small ponies or minis, if they were small ponies that couldnt easily pass under the dividers but the dividers were too hi...

Quelah

Slightly warm, definitely not toasty. They're horses after all, and I live in California where even in winter horses prefer to stand in shade

Quelah

Happy hiny!

Quelah

Sounds wonderful! Keep us posted

Quelah

IME Ariat outer wear runs small and they over state the water resistance. I've only worn their official US team gear when we wear in England, but I i wouldn't say it allowed for layering. Thank God I had my Kerrits and DH was head to toe in real Gortex.

Quelah

They need one of everything and a duplicate of each in case a garment is needed but being washed, a of you tell my husband that's not true I'll stab you with a spoon.

Quelah

In the 35 plus years I've been riding I've never put that tab up on my own saddle or the hundreds (?) of horses ive tacked up for others.

Quelah

Congratulations!!!! Wishing you less work and stress in the days ahead

Quelah

Lovely lady! Congratulations

Quelah

I did it that way to with same results

DH's family always cooked their turkey in a roaster oven and he was very happy that I finally, FINALLY, came around to doing in the right way LOL!

Quelah

Sending strength and hugs, rest and be well, we will miss your presence and hope you are back soon

Quelah

I am cutting back on FB too. I like to look at pictures of cute animals and read horse ads. I've had to unfriend people over politics. And I'm kinda tired about the stuff people present as factual, when the information is either old or completely wrong. This, a thousand times. All of it. For the lo...

Quelah

I do it the way DJR and Flight do, though I'm not sure if if I put my right hand on pommel or seat LOL, I'll try to pay attention tomorrow.

Me too!!! He is just lovely, and the storyline isn't bad either

Ticks the hot bad boy boxes

Quelah

I have bought tickets to his clinic in San Diego, very excited

Quelah

I'll admit it, Luicifer is my guilty pleasure.

Quelah

I was very excited to read the first post, where no color was mentioned. I was like, " yay, a person who knows color is the last thing on the list !!" i was very excited when Quelah bought a pinto, despite herself, lol. okay, i am happily going to vhs LOL! His base color is black and he d...

Quelah

Mailed my ballot as soon as it came. Home watching recorded TV shows cause I'm afraid to see the news.

Quelah

I'm so sorry, hugs and peace to you. All that love could do was done.

Quelah

Loudly. You are loud, you speak loudly.

OMG my mother just took over my body and spoke through me. My apologies!

Quelah

Great pic

What is his saddle? You don't see that many dressage saddles with square cantles.

Quelah

UC Davis is 2-6 days upon receipt. Don't know about the other one.

Quelah

Alpacas!!! I *am* jealous! I've always wanted some but when we bought the farm I imposed a "no exotics" policy on myself.

Quelah

OMG. You are a saint for the work that you do normally and for not running screaming from the building.

Quelah

Nice job! Congratulations on all counts

Quelah

Lovely colors!!! Congrats!!

I havent seen that style before. How do you get to horses' heads?

Quelah

A little hard to tell cause the pic is dark but I think they meant that she doesn't use a noseband on him. if you don't need it don't use it

Quelah

Something else to add to your head explosion (sorry) - During our house remodel, I was told that breakers should not be used routinely as switches, because they have only so many "flips" before they wear out and will no longer be reliable for their designed purpose. Can anyone comment? DH...

Quelah

Hate them won't have them. It's light pollution. Yes I have a soapbox dedicated to this topic. My DH is an electrical contractor so what I can have lights wise is unlimited. I could have my property lit up like a surgical suite if I wanted to. No dusk to dawn lights here. To answer your question LED...

Quelah

Lovely lovely and well ridden! Congrats you two

Quelah

Love it!

Quelah

Not browbands, but saddle pads, or blankets actually. Since Milagro is going to play at western or cowboy dressage, or both, I've been having a bit of fun with saddle blankets. But I have to stop because they're really expensive!

Quelah

Cute! You'll be battling his neck if you're wanting to really "do" dressage, for an all around happy hacker he might be super if that's what you want. I know nothing about his seller but the website tells me they're horse traders so if you like him, vet the snot out of him, pull blood and ...

Quelah

I have both and prefer the first one because easy one handed operation. Regardless, they need to be out of horses' reach. WAY out of horses' reach.
Make sure ALL your wiring is run in conduit, no exposed romex, I don't care how out of reach it is.

Quelah (the electrician's wife)

Quelah

I wouldn't worry about dirt sticking to ointment, it's the way of it. Maybe keep his legs wrapped for a while with ointment on? Neosporin or some such. Those scabs will be more comfortable and will heal/come off sooner if you can keep them softened.

Quelah

I know nothing of chiggers, we don't have them, but panalog ointment (not cream) is my go to for nasty bug bites on animal or human.

Quelah

Ah, I don't have to go near Vallejo thank goodness. But yes, I recall the last time I took horsed from Walnut Creek to Sonoma horse park thinking "I really REALLY need to charge more for this trip". Of course the long road into SHP is probably the worst part

Quelah

Don't know how long it's been since you've been but most of 80 to Davis has been repaved in recent times and it's not as hideous as it used to be. Definite a thousand times better than 580 over the Altamont! I actually did the Altamont in my speedy new car the other day, fast Lane all the way and it...

Quelah

California vehicle code 22406 states that trailers must stay in the right hand lane on the highway (except for passing) unless there are four or more lanes going the same direction then they may travel in the second lane from the right.

Quelah

Always check your hitch. Always. Everytime you get in and out of your truck, check your hitch. Have a drive on trailer Jack. Essential. Have the necessary tools for changing tires, make sure they fit, use them. Practice. Nothing worse than getting a flat and realizing you have everything you need bu...

Quelah

Sounds fabulous!!! You had me at woods

Quelah

I am so happy to hear your strength is returning

Quelah

Being on a "maintenance dose" of previcox says to me that the horse has some soundness issues, FWIW.

Quelah

Since I have no desire to breed my own (did it once, a success, I'll not tempt fate again!) I am grateful to those that breed good horses, train them up, and sell them on

Quelah

Ditto!

Quelah

Well, feel free to disregard, because unsolicited advice is just that, but I feel I would be remiss if I DIDN"T say this so I am going to strongly suggest that you send him out to get broke, cause he's not. Not enough for you anyway. I don't mean send him out to get "bro-ken", but sen...

Quelah

A fun forest running quad won't have the lower gearing appropriate for slow heavy work like dragging a ring unless drag is very light. Super for poop runs and feeding though.

Quelah

I'm sorry you're beautiful girl had left you, but what a life and legacy she gave you.

Quelah

One more question, why did your friend need to help you get on? Do you have a previous injury or?

Quelah

I'm so sorry you got so badly flung. I hope nothing is broken. It may simply be that he is not the right horse for you, there's no shame in that. It may be that you need to put him in professional training with someone who is good at getting young horses "broke", there's no shame in that e...
