I wish I could help! We are always looking for someone to ride with, but we're too far away from you. Have you thought about posting something at a local Tractor Supply? They have all kinds of stuff on their board. (At ours it's next to the restroom…
This is my favorite place to ride! My husband and I always rent a cabin (he doesn't do the camping thing with me!). The trails are great! I've never ridden anywhere marked better then East Fork. Almost every fork has a sign that tells you "back to s…
When your horse STOPS sweating, it's time to worry. That means they've depleted their water supply and the ability to cool themselves. And you CAN put cold water on a hot horse! That is an old wives tale! I dump my saddle bag's melted ice on my hors…
Absolutley GREAT advice!!! It's funny that you mentioned when horses are the most comfortable. I read that just a couple years ago and I couldn't believe it! The article said if you are comfortable, your horse is warm. 75 seems great for us, but hor…
Many Cedars must've changed A LOT since we were there! We went about 6 years ago and it was AWFUL. They were cutting a lot of timber and we couldn't find the trails when we came into the clearings. It was August and HOT! One of the most miserable ri…
At least it's a dry heat! My mom and I went to Pheonix, and when we landed they said it was 110 degrees. I didn't even want to get off the plane! But it was actually pleasant compared to the humidity here. 110 there was nicer than 85 here! But what'…
Don't be embarrassed!!! It happens to any pink-skinned horse that has the luxury of full turn out. I'd rather put stuff on mine to protect him than to keep him in a stall all the time. He's miserable in the "pony penitentiary" (as we call the stalls…
Desitin is GREAT for dew poisoning, too! (Scratches, mud fever....whatever you wanna call it!) It dries it out in just a few days if you catch it early. Not that we have to worry about that now, with all this dry weather and heat! Ugh!
I now what you mean. My SSH hates the stuff I put on his nose....but it's better the very next day! Sometimes, I think me horses' ailments bother me more than it bothers them. I can't bear the thought of them being uncomfortable!
I have seen the extended fly masks, but they don't come down far enough for my horse's pink muzzle. I'd love to see what you made! You might have something there.....
Beer in the saddle bags...if that isn't a good indicator, nothing is! Perfect answer!
I use Carona. It's really messy, and my horse doesn't like the smell. But it's extemely soothing. And I only have to apply it twice a week (he's on turn out 24/7). Once a week if he's not having any sunburn symptoms. I have seen commercials for Pony…
Amen, sister! Always a plus to have one who doesn't care how the heck you get on. The quicker, the better!
I imagine the indians got on whichever side was more convenient! LOL! You also have to take into consideration etiquette. I don't know if this was actually a "rule" before people started riding horses for reasons other than work and war and transpor…
I have read this a dozen times! I'm convinced that this is the correct answer. I'm suprised that so many people actually knew the answer! But I would like to add this....it is a really good idea to teach your horse to accept mounting from BOTH sides…
I tried Farriers Formula. It did work. But no better than Rainmaker. And I don't feed my horses grain every day in the summer (they're too fat!). So it was easier to apply Rainmaker twice a week than to feed the Formula every day. ANd it's way cheap…
