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!
Are you crazy? CDawg is runnin' around here with a needle!
ROFL I think i remember you posting "where to stick needle" at the end of the last thread? Maybe that would help! : D
Well I'm out of here, I'm going to be bad and grab some popcorn, a drink and my book! G'night All! : D
LOL. I've been giving them where a vet assistant showed me. My trainer prefers much lower though. I think both sites acceptable though.
Oh wow. Fresians are so beautiful. They are my ultimate dream horse.
Good morning.
Having coffee.
Becky
Angels around ya!
Good Morning! Is it today that you leave?
You nut.
OK - So I wasn't up that early to see you off!
See ya when you get back! have a great time!
I haven't heard it on the national news here!
Not quite sure why I had an exclamation point on that... I guess the coffee's kickin' in.
The big story is the GM layoffs and closing. There is a GM assembly plant, that builts the new Cobalt in this area. There is a lot of buzz, with the pols on radio now.
I'm sure there is.... Good luck for your area with the GM layoffs.
Too cold here for swimming before 10 am!
LOL! Not much going on today, am still desperatly trying to find a farrier. Are they in short supply everywhere?
Seriously, you can't fight Mother Nature, and Labs just don't feel right unless they have a bird in their mouth (a chipmunk, tennis ball, or stick will DO - but a bird feels best). When my Lab was a tiny pup (just 10-12 weeks old), if a bird hit the glass she would tenderly pick it up and bring it to me. She's still doing it - brought me one yesterday. Unfortunately this one was dead - sometimes when she brings them to me they're just stunned, and we can revive them.
