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, usually about our horses, sometimes about our dogs, gardens and other stuff we do. :~)
I have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and MissTargets will ping everyone most mornings. Let MissTargets and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list.
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.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
We thought about selling tickets a week before the festival, for a drawing, for the available spaces we had:)
Yes I did enjoy the festival...We had lots of company at the office, ate lots of good carnival food:), and the kids got to ride rides, race turtles, and play non stop for 3 days...I truly do not know how the little ones were continuing to go yesterday...they never stopped.
Thanks. I figured you unexpectedly dismounted but I couldn’t find a post about why. I’ve got to keep up better around here:’)
There ya go... There’s got to be at least a way to make a buck from it. Heck... as central as your building is to the festival! it’s prime location, right? :~)
Is your kitty still missing? :~\
Thank you very much. We just got home from a 3 hour round trip to deliver Lucky. Coming down our road, Bob said, I really wish you would ask Becky etc. etc. to which I replied, I already did :) He has the information in his hands now.
Off to can mangos and salsa (I have a box of mangos, a box of tomatillos, a bag of peppers and a box of tomatoes) all of which have maybe one more day before they are too far gone.
Yes he is.
Oh - I’m sorry. He’s never done this before?
Nope never has.
I just hope whatever happened it was quick.
Oh - I do too... or he comes back. Cartman disappeared for 2 months once, and came back. A little thinner, a few battle scars, but no worse for wear. Who knows where he was.
The old 10 yo cat I thought I was going to have to put down was dead on the back patio this morning. I guess nature took it’s course. He was eating, drinking, and rubbing on me yesterday afternoon and I doctored his poor ole sore ear before I went to bed. I’m glad he fathered a few kittens before he died, so his bloodline will live on. I’ve had that bloodline almost as long as I’ve had 28 yo children. He was a good cat.
How quick does Ace work in dogs? I went ahead and gave it to Nikki at 8:00...hoping it would just do the job.
Usually takes two hours for it to work fully. I sure hope for the best with her today.
Aw geeze. Poor old good cat. I’m sorry. But it’s sure nice when it seems like they go easy and peacefully like that.
It’s a sad day for our pets today.
2 hours!!!! dang, wonder why he told me to not give it till 8:30 when her appointment is at 10. He gave me 3 tablets...don’t you usually give your big dogs only 2?
I’m sorry. Sounds like he died peacefully tho, so that is a comfort.
I’m sorry about your cat - it’s nice that you have his bloodline still.
I’ll be thinking about you and Nicki today.
Yeah - I usually give the big dogs two, and it makes them pretty s l o w.
Did you feed it to her in the trailer? Or do you have to get her in the trailer still?
