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.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
It's gotta be exciting to win that money. $60 is a nice chunk of change.
Dontcha just LOVE peanut-rollers?! The poor horse looks like he's in pain or dying or something.
She just about won enough the 2 nights to pay all her entry fees, plus the one next Sat:). It's nice to at least get your entry fees back.
Rodeo cost alot more to enter then Jackpots, something like 40-45. But Rodeos almost always have added money too. But rodeos don't have divisons, other then Jr, and Sr. and that is age of rider. Everyone runs in one group and they pay the top 3.

I rode in a few rodeos but they were those little "every saturday night" type. Low entry fees and I don't remember if there were money purses.
Now, we all know I love paints. They are all pretty to me but I gotta tellya, this is the ugliest horse I've ever seen.

EEEWWWWWWWW.....
Look at those pigeon toed front feet...poor thing.
Becky
The neck doesn't go with the body. It looks like someone glued that neck on a different horse body.
Yeah, I wonder if that has to do with the neck injury the ad talks about.
Becky
The headset on that horse is gross for an english horse. Ugh....
She also looks very thin.
Could be. I wonder what the neck injury was. Must have been pretty serious.

Wish I had 15 grand to blow on a horse. This one is gorgeous!
He is very pretty.
But 16.1 us too tall for me:).
Becky
Silly George.... Maybe if he goes there a few times he'll figure out the fans aren't going to kill him ;~D
And that horse above....~shakes head~
~sip~
Good morning everyone! I have been spending the morning marking school work and playing with the puppies. I took some pics of them! They are 8 days old now. : )
Well.... post 'em!
Ohfercryinoutloud.
Cute little snausages.... ain't they?
The last two pics Emma took and she forgot to turn the flash off. Not bad for her $100 camera though! I'm impressed with it! : )
They're adorable.... Don't they get a bunch of shots too in the first few weeks so they don't get parvo? I've never had puppies ;~D
How much will they sell for?
They are seriously cute. I'd have a hard time selling those cuties.
