Hi, Bev - thanks for the info and the post. Thyro-L is actually for Hypothyroidism, a symptom of EMS. She was on Pergolide only at first, but we put her back on Thyro-L (a small and carefully monitored amount), which eliminated her lethargy and helped her drop all the fat (which she ahd been carrying...

Jet is barefoot, as I believe in keeping my horse as a horse - barefoot, out 24/7 (except in extreme weather, then she's just indoors over night), I ride bareback, and use the Bitless Bridle. I'll look into the "Natural Trim" to understand it better. My farrier is a specialist, as well...

Hi, everyone, I'm writing to ask opinions on the top 5 hoof supplements. I use what is deemed by many to be the best on the market -Farrier's Formula. I love the stuff - it's worked beautifully for my mare, however, the price is prohibitive. I'd be interested to know what else is about...

Thank you - I really appreciate the suggestion! I have good news......Jet, my mare, has been "laminitis-free" all spring AND my farrier just gave her a trim - very short, to get rid of the wall that had seperated out from the fungus, the new wall is growing beautifully - and Jet is getting...

The major step for me was to quit using chemical pest control and to use more natural sprays. At the moment, I'm using Equisect, which seems to be working very well (and has a wallet-friendly price tag). I am also putting my Appaloosa mare on a more natural diet - taking out the corn and molasses...

Hi, everyone, this is one for you mule folk out there. I'm new to the mule world - just got a sweet Molly this week. I've been doing my research, but I'd like to post this quesion to you all: have you done any free-lunging with your mules? I love this form of exercise and find it one of the...

I'm wondering if we could have a discussion about bits. Personally, I've never used them on my horses - never have, never will. I do have "bit experience" through all my years of lessons, working with another person's horse, etc. On my own horses I used to use mechanical hackamores...

Thanks, flakemusic. Thinking that bits are cruel is actually not a ridiculous notion. Everyone has different insight and experience. Also as a note - I am careful with my bareback riding. I've got about 30 years of experience with horses under my belt, and have learned much : ) My ancestors rode...

Hello, tlrobertshsnt ~ I couldn't agree with you more. You are 100% on the mark, as was the editorial. If we'd had the guts to just take slaughter completely off the table long ago, I'm sure we would have come up with better solutions by now because we would have had no choice. As long as...
