No rawhide this Christmas! Or EVER! It is a deadly, awful chew to give to your dog. Please don't.

Nice!

Three hay feeders made today. They fit a whole bale in, keep it dry, and they are portable!! :)

We have upgraded these feeders a little by strapping them to a fence post with a ratchet strap and also drilling a hole in the lip of the lid to be able to tie it shut - some horses are too smart and work put how to open the lids hehehe. 😁😁

Lovely..

Usually when twin horses are born, one or even both will die. But these two both survived and are way too adorable. :)

Did you know...?

Calculating your horse’s body weight using the following formula is generally considered to be a more accurate method than a weight tape, and requires only an ordinary soft measuring tape.

Weight (kg) = [heart girth (cm) x heart girth (cm) x body length (cm)] / 11,990

Learn how to determine your horse's heart girth and body length at www.HORSEJournals.com/estimating-your-horses-weight.

Okay, this one's not in the books. The bay stallion, Conquistador, brought his family of nine bays and sorrels and brushed by Logan's band of 7 mixed creams. Conquistador is flirting a bit with one of Logan's mares and Logan kept grazing unconcernedly just off camera to the right. No fight, no muss, no fuss, and then Conquistador led his family peacefully off towards water.

EXERCISE TO DEVELOP COLLECTION IN THE JUMPING HORSE:
Schooling over a gymnastic grid set with low, wide oxers at steady distances is an excellent strengthening exercise for the horse’s hindquarters and will help develop engagement in collection.

Learn how to ride this exercise with tips from H/J coach Claudia Cojocar at www.HORSEJournals.com/collection-jumping-horse.

When I Am An Old Horsewoman
I shall wear turquoise and diamonds,
And a straw hat that doesn’t suit me
And I shall spend my social security on
white wine and carrots,
And sit in my alleyway of my barn
And listen to my horses breathe.

I will sneak out in the middle of a summer night
And ride the old bay gelding,
Across the moonstruck meadow
If my old bones will allow
And when people come to call, I will smile and nod
As I walk past the gardens to the barn
and show instead the flowers growing
inside stalls fresh-lined with straw.

I will shovel and sweat and wear hay in my hair
as if it were a jewel
And I will be an embarrassment to ALL
Who will not yet have found the peace in being free
to have a horse as a best friend
A friend who waits at midnight hour
With muzzle and nicker and patient eyes
For the kind of woman I will be
When I am old.

Did you know...?

Rapid growth spurts in foals caused by nutritional imbalances can contribute to osteochondrosis, physitis, and other forms of developmental orthopedic disease (DOD). Feeding your youngster a balanced diet that satisfies his nutrient requirements will help ensure a steady growth rate for healthy bones and joints.
