Wandering how many use apple cider vinegar for their horses? I have heard that it works for many things from arthritis, digestive, repel's flys, all around good stuff. If so how much do you use? Then what about Skin So Soft from Avon, used for fly repellent mixed with the vinegar? Trying use...

I am so sorry for your loss, god bless you!

Sorry I'm in between moving so I haven't checked back in awhile. Anyway thanks for the info. I do not believe he has EPM we live in Arizona and moving up north. I do have him on Purina Strategy Healthy Edge, should I switch to senior? Everyone on this site is soooo helpful ...blessings to...

OMG that was the funniest comment by Michickenwrangler!!! I have one of those too! Do you ever see the show Orange Chopper with Paul Sr.? Thats my hubby, arms crossed and watching till he can't stand it and shouts his directions...geeeez I hate when he's out there. I try and hurry before he...

Thanks!!! ;)

These horses are funny aren't they...to say the least. Did I mention he's also spoiled rotten! Thinks he's a dog half the time and has the run around our property and walks right up and across our patio and looks in the windows. So I already thought that, about not wanting to do his work...

Nope!

Thanks! I will check into the book by Linda Tellington-Jones and I am also going to have him checked by a chiropractor next month. Vets out here (AZ) if they can't physically see it, lets do tests! And if that test comes back negative lets do this and that one and on and on. My last horse went...

I either have the laziest guy or a problem. When riding he tends to trip front and back, not constantly but it gets like "dude what are you doin". Farrier has checked all his feet, he's shod every 7-8 weeks. (no shoes) His toes tend to grow pretty fast but I see no difference after he's trimmed...

Cute saddle! But... I would agree with the other two comments. Fit is so important to your horse, believe me I made the mistake of buying a wrong saddle too! Pads did not compensate for it either. Plus if it is of cheap leather or material it WILL fall apart. My good friend said she was out...

Hey Treeclimber...(funny) :) I have never seen a horse shiver...can you exactly see him like a human or dog shiver? I hope all goes well for us, like everyone has said I will have to watch and see how he reacts. I may be boarding him down here in the valley till April. That way I get him use...

Thank you everyone! Have a blessed and Happy New Year!!!!

Hats off to both WC and April!!!! Thank you so much, I needed that reinforcement!!! :D Have a wonderful and blessed New Year!!!

Boy WC... I am glad you are on this site! You have given me the most valuable information! (and without saying I need to get ride of him) Thanks! He is a very good boy, I rode him bareback yesterday around our property (2 ac.) and he was soooo good. I think you are right with me being nervous...

I'm not a going to sell him cuz I've had him to long almost 2 yrs. and attached to him.:( And I'm not a experience rider as well...(another:( I have lots of back problems and ride when I can. The trainer thing is a great idea but money is tight right now and we will be moving in the next...

I have done my ground manners and we ride around in the pasture, he is fine. Soon as I open the gate to go out on the road around the neighborhood he is flipping his head and wanting to gooooo, looking around here and there. And if I go out with others it's really bad, so bad that I don't go...

WC , thanks for all the great information!! I will take all that information and store it in my brain! I am nervous about this whole change for him and myself. I don't like change but have no choice this time. But with lots of love and gods guidance we will survive!:)

He is a quarter horse bay gelding, weighs about 1150 lbs. and about 15 yrs old. And about 15.2 tall. He has the nice velvet hair now not to long. Our temps were here in the valley (phx, az) 74/43 where I am moving is 55/29 but will get colder. And they do get snow, rain and winds. He has a 3...

Thank you for the response. It is 200 miles from where we are now about 5,600 is the altitude. So far I think I have 7 to 3 that I should use a blanket! And yes I will buy more than 1. He has never been in snow and it gets cold winds there thru spring. We don't know much more than that, first...

This is my first time on this site...so here I go! I live in the sunny state of Buckeye, Az and so does my horse...of course! Anywho..we will be moving up north still in Az but about 25 degrees colder. So my horsie friend says I will have to balnket my baby (he's 15) cuz it will be a shock to...
