The 2nd horse (or 3rd lol) that I was thinking about was a wash. She had a bowed back leg and the owner really wanted to sell her to a child. She said anything over 150 lbs and she would get stiff after riding. Oh well. Back to the drawing board.
Bummer. Do you mean a bowed tendon? or a conformation defect crooked leg?
Because though they will be painful when recently injured, Bay has an old bowed tendon injury that resulted in a bump you can see on one back leg. It's been there 15 years at least, and doesn't cause him any trouble now at all, or when he was racing.
Not sure. I was given a flyer and called. The owner just told me her back right leg bowed in some so I was thinking genetic since she didn't talk about an injury.
She did offer to loan me a second horse that she wanted to keep though. She had never met me but just knew who referred me. Horse people different huh? I didn't know what to say. It really took me by surprise. I appreciated it but I think I'll pass on that too though because I don't want to be responsible for someone elses property.
The owner of the stable here also has given me a loner If I want her but I would have to let Eddie ride my boy because he said there was no way he was riding a horse named Buttercup:') Men!
LOL.... Buttercup ain't happening for a man's horse ;~D
A friend bought a paint named "Beaux" pronounced "Bo". Well, he thought it looked French or Gay or both, so he just changed it to "Bo". :~D
LOL....
I plan on getting a squirrel feeder this winter. I like watching him too. But he empties the bird feeders soooo fast.
Becky
Yeah - they do. And I fear.... they really forget where they hide most of the stuff... ;~D
It was so funny when I first moved the feeder he would jump from the tree and land on top and it would swing wildly, most times is flung him off. I got a picture of it once, but accidentlly erased it before I realized it was on that disc:(.
Last year I had two eating out of them.
Becky
What kind of dog is she?
My Gidget has killed a couple bunnies here... I have a lot of them, and she's gotten a couple babies. She's too slow to catch the adults...
But I remember a camping trip by a river, where my little Zulu dog, the cocker, chased a rabbit out to the edge of a rock spit, where it was trapped against the river. That rabbit turned around, leaped straight in the air towards her and ~screamed~. It sounded just like a child wailing. It scared the dickens out of Zulu. Course, Zulu was not a lot bigger than the rabbit, and her joy was only in the chase, I think ;~D
Hi, How are you doing? I am just kinda hanging in there.

We have had our lake lot probably 3 years now. The camper has a big window that is about 4 feet from a tree. Every year a red bird comes back and will see herself in the window and fly into it. She does this over and over. I'm going to take her picture if she's there the next time we go back.
That's about all any of us can do. I'm glad you are back')
Wooohoo! Glad to hear that Rusty and Harley are doing better. That was quite a scare on Rusty's part.

cs
