Happy New Year to you Alan too. I'm familiar with the bark eating habits of this breed. Ironically, I have one mare I think is too thin. I've always had...
Join the club! People that don't have horses or ever have cared for them are clueless. I live in an area of ranches and farms and Reserves. If the city folks...
Just an unqualified guess, but worth checking with your vet is Ovarian Cysts or problems in that area. I had a Saddlebred mare that went that way and was ...
Happy New Year Allan ! All the best for you, your family and I wish you not too many neighbors !!! Oh Boy, I am always amazed to see how people who don't have...
Hi all, thought that you would like to hear a bit of humor regarding the general public and their perception of "abuse". My sister in law (also horsey) lives...
How horrible for her to have such a pleasant ride turn into a nightmare thanks to the ignorance of one individual. I'm glad that she can now laugh about it....
Hi, Suppose I should add a minor story but irritating none the less. We were at a show with our little driving mare this summer. My husband was getting our...
Today is one of those gloomy, rainy, foggy days. We had a snowy, cold spell in December, but it warmed up Christmas day, turning to rain. The ice and snow is...
This is driving my Hubby nuts!! Our Canadians are wrecking our trees-and teaching my other horse to do the same thing!! And my Hubby was worried about my...
Here is further proof that its the Canadian "breed" that is the tree lover , usually not a lack of anything in diet necessarily... I lived on a Lipizzan...
... trees-and teaching my other horse to do the same thing!! Hi All, We had our Canadians wrecking trees as well and yet wanted them to have trees for shade so...
Hello; We have a trained mare for sale. She was nine years old in August and has had some beautiful foals (One of her sons is on our photo gallery of our...
This is not an abuse story but a true example of not understanding horses and how to handle them and unfortunate results. I am not sure where I heard it, ...
I was looking at my barn the other day with great dismay seeing the too numberous to count knaw marks on the batton of the board and batton siding. I also...
Happy New Year!! My quarter horse mare grazed all three rows of small pine trees north of the yard in the "alley way" from the barn yard to the pasture,...
I have to chime in on this one, it's become a real issue around here. I had horses for eleven years before I got my Canadien. The pastures are full of...
Is it possible to train a mane to lie on one side of the neck or the other? One of our colt's manes is split on either side and it would be ideal to have it...
Non-horsey people give me the big "you are such a bad horse owner" glare when I tell them that my horse is outside 24/7. I explain that the horse has all...
My guy had such a nice mane this summer parted to one side, after shampooing I would put into nice little braids, he looked like such a sissy boy, I would...
Hi everyone- I was hoping some of you might have some tips or tricks for me to use with one of our favorite mares who has now learned how to buck/spook. Last...
Hi Angela: It's hard to say without being there but you could try distracting her right at the time she starts to tense by giving her things to think about;...
Another way to handle the mane situation rather than braiding is to simply put elastic bands on small sections of mane without braiding it. You will still...
Hi Angela, My two cents. Not everyone, no matter how good a rider they are, can ride or establish a good relationship with every horse. It's important that ...
Hi Angela, I can tell you from personal experience that once a person has gotten "spooked" about a particular horse, that person may never again feel ...
Don't bother trying jalapeno Hot Sauce, like I did, the Canadians loved it. Soap doesn't work either because it washes away too quickly. Motor oil has been...
