Do you own a horse? Do you find barn chores overwhelming at times? Here are some tips we have learned over the last 15 years. Feeding Time Every horse needs water. Its a big pain to have to carry water to the stalls. I highly recommend running water pipes to each stall. There are a few things you have to consider though. For example, if you live in a climate where the temperature drops below freezing and your barn occasionally dips below the freezing point then make sure you are using some sort of plastic piping. Plastic can expand and contract a bit when the water freezes inside it. If you use metal piping then it has a greater chance of bursting. Our barn has earth floors and as tempting as it is...

I was in the fifth grade when my parents bought me my first horse. She was POA Appaloosa pony, and she was so calm when we went to see her. No one put a saddle on her, she just stood there with her head down and her lower lip a little loose, she was all kinds of mellow. A few days later, and the horse that came out of the trailer at our house was completely different. I put a saddle on her, and she took off. We went in circles down the road until a neighbor caught us and helped me down. Luckily, one of the neighbors was a horseman and helped me learn to work with the horse and not be bullied by her. Years later I watched as the veterinarian gave another horse a tranquilizer shot to perform some...

Selling Your Horse Float to Obtain a Great Price

Any time you're selling your own horse float, one of your prime aims is always to get the very best price you can for it. All things considered, if you're selling your horse float, one of the most probable explanations is that you're upgrading, so you'll need a good sale price to lessen the changeover amount. Hence one of the basic philosophies in selling virtually any product should be to expose it to the maximum amount of potential customers you can. Have you ever seen a car dealer situated in a back street somewhere? Of course not, they're always on a main road so that they display their stock to as many customers as possible. And so the first priority is to expose your product to as many...

But I'm a nice guy and I believe in the playing it forward theory. This theory came to me when I was training some horses. Horses? Do I mean people are like horses? Of course not!

These days you can get riding hats in a variety of colors - not just black. When you select the right hat, you'll find it to be a comfortable and attractive horse riding accessory.

If you are intending to buy a horse at auction, you need to be able to tell the quality horses from the problem horses. Remember that most horses at auction are sold 'as-is', so you do not have a guarantee and have little legal protection, even if the horse has a serious problem. Consequently, you need to do your own research on the horses in advance to identify the ones that are worth bidding on and the ones which you should keep away from. The first step is to arrive well before the auction starts, so that you have sufficient time to look over the horses. Watch the horses are they are being unloaded and walked to their pens.

Packing for shows with our children turns out to be one of the most stressful parts of horse showing.

If you hear someone say they are educating their horse what comes to mind? Do you think of someone working quietly with a horse? It is perhaps unfortunate that breaking-in contains the word break, when we hear that we think of breaking the horses spirit, making the horse yield to us. This is not what it should be about.

A recent Hollywood rumor was that Tobey Maguire injured his back during the making of Sea Biscuit doing horseback riding scenes, making him unable to star in the sequel to Spider-Man. Although it turned out to be false, he rode a mechanical horse in the film, many actors have had close calls working with horses. One example was Michael Caine, whose first movie Zulu (1964) required him to ride a horse after a hunting expedition, which after several embarrassing takes almost bought his career to a premature end.

Horse Adoption Tips

 For animal lovers there is nothing more satisfying than knowing that an animal has a good home. This fact applies to wild animals and domestic animals. Domestic animals have an easier time finding families because there are people who love having these different animals as pets. One type of animal that some people want to own is that of a horse. The horse adoption process is different from that of cats or dogs. Since these pets are small it is easy to find a good home for them. A horse on the other hand is a large creature that needs lots of space. This space is required for the horse to run and play.

It was sunset. The wind rode on the sharp edges of the mountains dragging the last bit of color away from the darkening hills. In a small cradle of two hills lay a beautiful girl. Her hair was long and soft, and when it touched the wind no other beauty could compare to it. She had a long face and brilliant searching brown eyes. Her feet were perfectly conformed, but were not like everybody else's who surrounded her. This girl's belly was not thin and it was not bulging, but was somewhere in between, and was the perfect shape. She stood up. Her long hair covering her body like a coat. The wind pushed against her forehead, cooling the nearly invisible sweat. Others gathered around her, watching her...

> - Struggling to reach your Ideal Scene or target? - Learn the secret to permanent weight loss. Releasing weight is a lot about movement, most notably, inner movement. Traditionally, we tend to think that movement only occurs on the physical level, as in ‘physical exercise.’ After all, this is what we’re normally accustomed to hearing. In order to release weight and release it permanently, however, we must be willing to move on all levels: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually (if you subscribe to that). We must be willing to update how we feel, think, act, and how we are with ourselves. When I am in judgment of myself and my body, nothing can or will change. I am not...

Add to that the world's richest race (Agua Caliente Handicap) and a sad demise and you soon realise why Phar Lap inspired a movie in his honour and was a household name in Australian and abroad.

Dog cancers are primarily found on the skin or internal organs such as canine liver cancer, spleen or in the digestive tract. The problem with internal cancers is that the related symptoms are generalized, meaning, they don't necessarily indicate the presence of cancer. Unfortunately the key to treatment is early detection. As most of you might be probably aware of, cancer in dogs is usually treated with chemotherapy, surgery, cryosurgery (freezing) and radiation. The problem, however, with these treatments is that there are potential side effects involved with them. This is why a lot of people these days opt for alternative cancer treatments for dog with the hope that the quality of life can be...

There's no one breed that's known as a "polo pony", but many that make fine polo ponies. What makes a good polo pony? You want a horse that's strong and can run all day. It needs speed and great balance. It's an alert horse with bright eyes, elastic skin, and a coat that's lustrous. It needs to be a bold type of horse also, yet still able to be managed and trained, since polo is a sport that requires quick reflexes and the ability to be controlled. Although any type of horse might be a great candidate, some horses are better suited for polo than others. The most popular is the Argentina polo pony, also known as the Criollo. That's kind of a misnomer, as the Criollo was crossbred with Thoroughbreds...

Why Do You Need a Big Horse?

Horses come in all shapes and sizes, as do people. But why is it that so many riders seem to want big horses? It seems that anything under 16hh, but over pony sized has little to no market at all. Many riders are not all that big in stature. Since most riders are women, averaging 5'6" in height, it seems strange that most people searching for horses are looking for animals 16.2hh or bigger. So what makes a rider want a big horse? Some believe that a horse needs to have size to be able to make the distances in the show ring. A hunter needs to have a 12' stride, so a 16hh+ horse is more likely to be able to manage that distance without effort. But, many big horses in fact have longer strides...

People are often amused and surprised when they see horses, either at horse shows, country fairs, or even at the circus. The horse may seem like an oddity at first, but they are a result of hundreds of years of selective breeding. "Minis" as they are affectionately called, are believed to have originated from Shetland ponies. They were bred specifically for a variety of tasks, including working in coal mines, as pets for royalty and as performers at traveling circuses and carnivals. The first records of an individual owning miniature horses were kept in the mid 1600s. These horses were said to belong to King Louis XIV and were kept at his Versailles palace in France. The first minis arrived in the...

Barrel racing is a tough sport on both rider and horse. Barrel horses are athletes that need to be in really good condition when running barrels. A horse that is not in good condition and started on barrels may get sore and associate the pain with running barrels. This can lead to problems that are hard to correct. If you plan on starting a horse on barrels or are getting a seasoned horse back into shape, start on their conditioning before putting them on the barrel pattern. Long trotting and slow loping are the best two ways to get a horse in top condition. These gaits will build up muscle and lung capacity allowing the horse to perform better and not be gasping for air after a run. Part of getting...

It's flu season and you feel a little under the weather. Did you know that your horse can get the flu too? That's right! Just as the flu spreads quickly through groups of people, equine influenza spreads quickly through groups of horses as well! But don't worry, while your horse may need to lay low for a few days, most horses recover without complications, and very few die. So how do you know if your horse is dealing with a bout of the flu? A fever in the range of 101 to 106 degrees Fahrenheit is usually the first sign. When your horse gets the characteristic cough, however, you can be pretty sure (but don't bet the farm quite yet!) that he has the flu. The cough usually comes on following the fever...

I am here to tell you that not only is this behavior not acceptable, but it can be downright dangerous. There are a lot of people out there who know how to train a horse to run the barrels.

Navicular disease is somewhat of a mysterious condition among horseowners. They may walk to their barn one day to find a horse that is sitting on his haunches and appears to be in enormous amounts of pain. Or, they may notice that their colt in race training tends to slow halfway through the workout. Owners of pleasure horses may not even realize it until one day the horse is unwilling to move forward and stumbles through gaits that it once performed with ease. These horses are often feeling a burning pain due to the increased bloodflow in their hooves and the shifting of the coffin bone. If the hooves are not properly trimmed on a regular basis, the horse is more susceptible to suffering from...

The body condition score was developed in 1983 by Texas A&M University. The Henneke System offers a subjective way to evaluate the condition of the horse. The body condition refers to the amount of fat that is distributed on the horse's body. The main areas that are examined in the body condition score include the neck, withers, shoulder, ribs, loins and the tailhead. The amount of fat is easily seen and palpated on the horse. When evaluating the body condition of a horse, you will want to get close to the horse and feel the fat deposits in these areas. You are also able to follow the chart to determine the score of the horse. A horse is able to fall into half ranges in the scoring. This...

When teaching my beginner jump student one day, her horse was becoming a bit strong over fences. Though she was sufficiently capable of handling him, she was slightly concerned as she suffered muscle weakness in one arm from an old injury. That weakness sometimes prevented her from maintaining consistent contact on both reins when she grew fatigued. It was then that I recalled a technique that my old jumper trainer had taught me when I was a junior rider retraining an ex-racehorse--bridging my reins. Bridging my reins had then become a subconscious effort whenever I was on a spooky horse or a strong mount that pulled over fences. By bridging my reins, I had greater security and consistent contact...

When starting a new aquarium it is important to understand the nitrogen cycle. Many new aquarium owners jump into the hobby of fish keeping too quickly. Before purchasing fish, the aquarium must be cycled. This could take anywhere from twenty four hours to four weeks. In an established aquarium there are certain bacteria that help the breakdown of ammonia to nitrates, but they are not present in a new tank because they are generated from existing fish. If there are no existing fish, then there are no good bacteria. The basic principle of the nitrogen cycle is this. Fish eat food and generate waste. That waste along with excess food and plant debris become ammonia in the aquarium. Ammonia is toxic to...
