If you have a dog that spends a lot of time outside, keep an eye out for fly bites on the dogs ears. Dogs with "standing ears," are an easier target then ones that are "floppy." If you see flies around the dogs head or flies landing on the ears, you have a problem. The fly lands on the tips of the dogs ear and bites the surface to obtain a "blood meal." The damage surface from the many fly bites gives the flies the perfect place to lay their eggs. If this is not treated, these eggs will later hatch into maggots. You must take immediate action to prevent the eggs from hatching and to heal the damage on your dogs ears. There are several thousand different species of flies throughout the world. The...

Beyond that reason, horse owners are also looking to take part in equestrian races and turf club activities. In fact, horse owners should take into account the different types of horse properties. They may include horse ranches, farms, or just a small stable where they can breed their steeds. All of the horse owners vary in their requirements when looking for a horse property. But there are basic conveniences typically explored prior to finally deciding to acquire any property for their beloved foals. Certain factors in...

An uninvited guest presented himself in the backseat of my pickup truck. I left my Chevy Silverado unlocked, which I rarely do, because it was parked in a safe place. I also left the door open because I was unloading horse equipment. After organizing my horse stuff I got back in the truck and closed the door. I put the key in the ignition, started up the engine and was on my way home. All of a sudden, someone came from behind and started kissing my neck. It put a whole new meaning into the word fear. Without thinking, I immediately pulled over & slammed on the brakes. My backseat guest tumbled over into the front seat. It was Oz, the puppy that resides at the farm I just left. He follows me all...

Home Remedies You Can Use Anyone involved with horses knows that riding is a very small part of the larger horse experience. Groom, maid, waiter, servant, and nurse are among the hats we wear while caring for a horse. The sheer amount of “stuff” one must collect in order to care for horses is astounding, from shampoos and conditioners, hoof paints, leather cleaners, grooming supplies, supplements, bottles, and tack- there is no end to the amount of paraphernalia that goes along with one horse! Although your local tack store may be a valuable source for a variety of the things you and your horse need, sometimes a little ingenuity can save you time, money and solve some of the more common...

No bigger than a large dog, the American Miniature Horse is less then 34" tall at the withers and weighs between 150 to 250 pounds. This tiny equine is popular in many countries and is known by several names such as the American Miniature Horse, Miniature Toy Horse, Miniature Pony, Falabella or Falabella Miniature Horse, Guide Horse, Minis and Dwarf Horse. They have been bred for centuries by selectively breeding horses and ponies of diminutive size. In prehistoric times, tiny horses were likely the products of having to survive harsh climates with limited food. Today, genetics has made it possible to breed specifically for size. In 1879, the Falabella family of Argentina bred small horses found on...

verage price of a horse is about $3,000 but the cost of keeping a horse can easily reach $100,000. For prospective horse buyers, the question is not 'Can I afford to buy him?' but rather 'Can I afford to keep him?'. The monthly, yearly and long-term costs are as follows. The costs given are typical costs; in some areas they will be higher and in some lower. Professional stabling typically costs $200 to $600 per month. If you stable the horse and do all the required work (e.g. mucking out) yourself, it will still costs about $75/month for bedding, straw and other feed, salt, minerals and incidentals. In some areas costs could be much higher than this due to high prices for hay and feed. Your horse...

The standard farrier practice is to shoe a normal healthy horse every six to eight weeks. That periodicity takes into account primarily two things, shoe wear and hoof growth. A healthy hoof will grow at about the rate of a quarter inch a month. A quick bit of math that means in two months time the hoof growth will equal about one half inch. That is enough to get a horse out of "balance". Allowing the horse to go more than 60 days without being trimmed or reshod will probably begin to cause stress in the three distal phalanxes. The three foot bones, coffin bone, short pastern bone and long pastern bone carry a lot of weight. It is those three bones that are of the most concern. A hoofed allowed to...

The Andalusian lineage dates back to prehistoric times. Cave paintings, discovered on the Iberian Peninsula and dated 20000 to 30000 B.C., show the Iberian Horse clearly. It is thought that as time progressed, the breed was influenced by strains of horses from the French Celts, Carthaginians, Romans, several Germanic tribes, and the Moors. This noble breed was cited by the Greek philosopher and commander of the army, Xenophon, as being a deciding element in his army's victory over Sparta. The noted commander, Hannibal, used Andalusians when he invaded Italy. Both of these esteemed warriors waxed eloquent in their praise of the Spanish Horse. Richard de Belisme, Duke of Shrewsbury, is credited...

I'm a Farrier in the Bay Area California for about 17 years now. Shoeing horses is a great thing for me as I have helped many horses from lameness and bring about much recovery. When horses feet are correct horses know it and I love it when I see horses become happy and better adjusted from my efforts, blood, sweat and tears. Sometimes though horses are just not happy animals, the following story is just such an example. A big beautiful paint horse i have shod for the past 12 years for the most part has been easy for me to shoe. The horse "always" was not just quite right though. Usually she would bobble on her back feet while I shoe the front and she would always side step when I approached to...

I have been pretty lucky in my selection of horses... until now. Starting out, I had trainers who helped me pick the best horses for my temperament. My temperament can be summed up in a single phrase: "I want to win!" Luckily, my trainer helped me pick out a good match for my first real long-term equine partner: Marcus. Marcus didn't necessarily want to win, but he did want to please. In wanting to please me, we won a lot. Marcus had an Earth horse personality, so he was always willing to please as long as I brought treats, plenty of treats. Earth type horses work for food. Next, I had a couple of geldings I did fine with, and then I moved into the big adventure of training mustangs. When you go to...

y"> 1. Interview horse trainers that fit your individual goals. Jane Cowgirl might have trained the last 5 world-champion reining horses but that won't help you if your goal is the three-day eventing arena. 2. Be open-minded. Tip #1 being said, if your event horse has holes in his basic education or you just purchased an untrained but incredibly talented three-day prospect from Europe, Jane Cowgirl might be a great fit IF she is well known for phenomenal foundation training she gives every horse. 3. Check credibility. Though the horse training profession is largely unregulated, research the trainer's professional credentials. What certifications does she hold? What organizations does she...

I do not know what inspired me, but as a young teenager I was quite determined to have a foal. I had a mare and all I had to do was find a stallion and my wish would come true. The sad fact is that no one around me knew any better. Horse breeding costs, in time, in money, in care, there is always a cost involved. I found two farms in our area that had stallions and both were willing to attempt a cover for free. It would cost me nothing or so I thought. I took my mare to stay with a stallion in his pasture for a couple of weeks hoping that nature would take care of itself. My mare never became pregnant and lost a riding horse for that time. Young as I was, I just took things in stride, but now that I...

Wish I could tell you after going through the tasks of looking for your first horse, checking for soundness and way of going, buying your first horse and then tackling the worries of moving your horse to his or her new home, that the worst is over. Some horses do not always do well when it comes to uprooting them and changing their homes. Of course, there are some exceptions, but overall most horses have fairly strong reactions to this move. Horses are creatures of habit. Horses can eat the same feed, stay in the same pasture, and basically follow the same routine everyday of the rest of their lives and be happy, providing that all their basic needs are met and they share their life with other...

That's right, don't get off the couch folks, you can actually improve your riding from right where you sit! I know, I have done it. Now you still will have to do a bit of riding, don't get me wrong, there are no short cuts to the perfect score. You can however improve your outcome using some simple principles which I will outline below. Firstly, have you heard of visualization? Some of you will have, some not so I will explain a little: visualization ties your imagination to reality, it is a process of using your imagination to create a picture or film inside your head of yourself being somewhere or doing something you want to do. It has been used by many successful athletes and you can use it too...

Everything hinges - literally - on the joints. If it's not the joints themselves, it's the bands of tissue or the tendons that provide joint stability and mobility. Joint disease often starts with inflammation of the tissue that surrounds the joint, called the synovial membrane. Without timely intervention, age and work will inevitable thin and degrade the quality of the synovial fluid. When this happens, the joint loses its ability to protect itself against friction, concussion, and the invasion of destructive inflammatory cells. Joint stress and joint disease are prevalent conditions with horses for one simple reason: horses' joints are complex structures that must handle extreme weight loads on a...

The more I work with horses and people the more I learn about each. This is the Second in a series of articles I would like to write about some of the things we teach to help in our relationship with our horses, as well as with each other and what we can learn from our creator. We use 4 keywords in our teaching: Confidence, Consistency, Compassion and Connection. Compassion I believe is an important part of our relationship with our horses. We could also call it insight, patience, generosity or an understanding, of what is going on in the horses head. We learn it by observation and listening to the questions that the horse is asking or the messages that his body language and eyes are telling us...

Don't take the decision of a horse training guide lightly. The right guide can make all the difference between horse training success and failure. Horse training is serious business and should not be taken lightly. Due to the fact that horses are not classified as a domestic animal, they won't be able to perform any tasks or activities when just taken out of the wild. Horse training is needed as an untamed horse which is very uncontrollable, won't be useful to an owner at that particular stage. Different tasks which horses are commonly used for are for transport which is the most commonly used task, farm work, sport or even warfare! In order for a horse to carry out any of the tasks intended for...
