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 MissTargets will now be pinging everyone most mornings. Let MissTargets 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!
Well, I'm goin' back to bed ;~D
Yeah she showed off real well. She showed um how to lunge with a lead rope in the pasture when I caught her.
Her eyes look dull.
I am not familiar with those bloodlines. Arabians? :-)
Part of that is the flash, but she was acting dull... I think she just got herself cast and got all stressed out. I just went out and checked on her again.... she's just standing there... can't really tell more till it gets light and I can let her out.
~yawn~ back to ~try~ to get a little more sleep ;~\
heheheheh.
Hmmmm, that's troubling. Keep us posted.
I had posters of Peter Frampton.
Your right, she wasn't. Sorry, Becky....Good Morning!
Poor pony, I hope she is ok. You are lucky you heard her. One time, I found my Appaloosa gelding upside down in his stall. He must have been there for some time, because his legs swelled up, when circulation was restored to them. I had to get the neighbor, to help me roll him over.
Same here! What's the deal?! It seems like there's a CVS, RiteAid or Walgreens on every corner, sometimes all at the same intersection.
Boy! Those are all really good pictures. You have a very hansome group!
Mornin' everyone!
Hair - I hope Pony is OK. ~fret~
Wow! What gorgeous horses!!! Josey, Sunny, and Tuffy are my favorites. Good color!!!!
"I think if I had to pick just one of the babes, it'd be Lacey, But I sure like Josey... She's marked really nicely now that she's done shedding out and we can tell what she is ;~D. "
Lacey is the cutest, I think. I could cuddle with her. But I would still pick Josey. I love all that color and those spots!!!
Give us a report after it gets light and you can check her over good.
Mabe just "attention getter" ? LOL
I have some very good news! My Criminal Justice instructor's horse does NOT have laminitis like the vet said. She just has an abscess on the bottom of her foot!!! She has flat feet and has always had a problem or another with them.
Crazy vet stressed out Mr Instructor for no good reason.
She's fine this morning.... when I finally woke up to go give them another breakfast! After all that when I finally got to sleep I slept in!
I think she got cast and stuck against the wall for who knows how long... and that alone made her nervous and sweaty... The head shaking... I can only think she got clocked as part of it... Or maybe it was her little thick pony skull that was stuck ;~D
She's no worse for wear this morning.
Well, there's always that... ;~D
Thank goodness!
Poor girl.
