LOL! It's funny how different people get weirded out by different things. Feet don't bother me at all, unless they've got that nasty toenail fungus crud, then it's just GROSS! When we were on our cruise, I saw WAY more nasty toenails than I EVER wanted to see. Do these people just not wash their feet, or WHAT!?
Plantar fasciitis we think. See the link on post 249. Sounds just like it.
I'm sorry, honey.
I'm not a fan of bare feet, but I'll rub feet that have socks on... provided they're dry.... sweaty feet are right out. :~\
I don't have pretty feet. They're kinda funny lookin'.
~smooch~

Please be on the look out for this Filly! Cross post this information to everyone you know that might help! One never knows where this baby could be by now!
Hello... Last night someone broke into my horse pens and stole my 3 week old paint filly. I just can not believe that someone would steal a baby, and not take the mare. We hope to find her but I just don't know. I am located in the Yakima valley of Washington. Just wanted to put the word out there, keep a close eye on them babies. We called the Sheriff and they have pictures of the filly, so maybe they will be of some help.

Wow, I sure hope they are caught quickly and the foal got adequate care. That's what I would fear, that the foal can become sick in a hurry away from momma. Momma will dry up without her babe there too.
As for why.... jeepers. Someone who lost a foal, or wanted a color foal and got a solid? Or someone stupid.
I cannot imagine the why of this. It is incredible to me that someone at all familiar with horses didn't take the mare also. That's the scary part, there doesn't seem to be any concern on the part of the theives for the baby's welfare.
Sarah Lee is sorrel. Her left side stays clean but she looks like a mud bucket on the right side.
How wicked. It was probably someone who didn't have a trailer. I sure hope you find her.
A baby would be easier to haul off then a mare. You could get a foal that young in a van.
Foals can make it with out their momma too. Just more work.

I'm back from riding Rusty. Once again he did great. I even encouraged him to walk out a little faster. The flies are horrible tho. Mack is picking me up some fly spray, I used the last yesterday. I'm going to wait for him to get back with it to go out on Rock.
I found my check book. Funny thing. It was out on the trails, but it was on my property. I've ridden past it now everyday. I rode past it on the way out and didn't see it. It wasn't till I was on the way back almost done that I just happen to look down and there it was. Whew.

Glad Rusty did great, and also that you found your wallet just laying there :~D
I think the next time I ride him I'm going to go do some tougher hills.
From what I read, hills are the best way to build up their hindquarters.

Biotin... Good for skin and coat, but makes some horses hot.
I think you're right, and as I look at the way they couple up, going down is just as much work as going up, if you keep their weight back.
Glad you found it!
I've quit using regular horse fly spray. They never last more than a few hours, less if the horse is sweating profusely. I use Deep Woods Off. It's cheaper than fly spray and it works great and we both can use the same thing. It keeps ticks off too.
I was right about where it was though ;~D
Yep. Shined him up real good though lol.
