Free Republic has a lot of horse people that have found each other on other threads…. And since we all like to talk horses, how about a thread where it is not off-topic, but is THE topic?
This is a horse chat thread where we share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share. In the previous threads we have had a great time talking through lessons, training, horse lamenesses, illnesses and pregnancies... and always sharing pictures and stories.
I always have a link to this thread on my profile page, so if you have something to say and can't find the thread in latest posts… look for it there and wake the thread up!
I also have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and Becky pings everyone most mornings. Let Becky (Paynoattentionmanbehindthecurtain) and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list. As FreeRepublic is a political site, our politics and other issues will probably blend in…. There are many issues for horsemen that touch politics… land use, animal rights/abuse cases that make the news…. Legislation that might affect horse owners.
So... like the previous threads, this is intended as fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends. There are lots of ways of doing things and we all have our quirks, tricks and specialties that are neat to learn about.
Horse Hockie!!!!
And I knew you were gonna give me a hard time on that last question, you dweeb. But I really don't know the answer..
*slinking away with tail between legs*
Just looked at the page. I guess I need to tell you that Rocky is 17, Quarter Stud, (eeekkkk, I didn't realize he was that old), Rusty is 7, grade, and Harley is 5. Quarter/Palamino gelding,We're in Bixby, OK.

FWIW...there's a Yahoo group that 'specializes' in apps. (the Appaloosa Project) I'm on the mailing list, but it's so darned 'technical' I'm 'lost'. LOL. Signed up for it to try and figure out 'what kind' of app Rei is.
Yes he is. I just got out his papers to figure his age, I can't ever keep up with that stuff. I'm still in shock. I just would never have thought he had gotten that old. 17.
Becky
Great pics.... sorry for dropping out of the conversation for a bit.... we're cataloguing and uploading all this information and trying to keep up! keep checking that page... we'll upload as we get them done.... Tuffy's done now.
Well, I've got my feelings hurt that you didn't do mine first:(
Becky
:)
Rocky's age crept up on you did it? He's got years and years left.
Heh... you didn't respond first! He's working on you know ;~D
You said he took vital sign? Did he take a blood pressure too?
er.... now ;~D
That would be a good idea.
She likes me better, she likes me better....
All my books are "for dummies". In large print.
I was thinking more along 14-15.
Now I'm going to start worrying about him:) I do think he's ageing well tho. Little guy can still turn a barrel with the best of em.
Becky
Yours is done now.
I'm going to check it out - The Appaloosa Project. I've spent a lot of years searching everything I can find on Appaloosa genetics so this will be great.
He hasn't been over-used, but he's been kept in shape. I don't think he's ready for the home yet ;~D
"She likes me better, she likes me better...."
Well, she'd be the only one.
LOL:)
Becky
I thought she was in a very bad mood for some reason but as soon as he left deaconjim took her for a walk (leading) and then felt her belly etc and she was as calm as she could be...........strange.
