Just Sunny being a cutie patootie. Also, for those who happen to recognize me from my last post about soreness post-trim: I talked to the farrier and she was very cool about it. She modified the next trim a bit and Sunny did great afterwards.

This is a long bodied horse, but my question is in regards to the loin. Is there any way to determine the loin length from a photo?

I meant conformation lol speak text…

Progressively we’re looking better!!
Please don’t judge the haircut, I cut it so that when her baldness grew back it would be somewhat even

Here my mare looking at the phone selfie camera like a model

I left their information in the screenshot so they get credit and I don't get copyrighted.

I just really thought this little mini was adorable with his little Halloween outfit

I have a photo shoot with my grey gelding early November and can get away with mane and tail washing. He won’t stand still for a dryer haha. Any tips and tricks to make him photo worthy when it gets so chilly 🥶? Thanks!

The Equine Disease Communication Center has posted confirmed strangles cases this October in Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan and Kansas, a few at boarding barns with lots of exposed horses. Sharing the basics in case anyone is moving horses or bringing in new ones this fall.

First sign is usually fever (often 103°F+), then thick white/yellow snot and swollen glands under the jaw. Some horses cough or struggle to swallow.

Quarantine checklist (from state ag and vet guidance):

- New horses separate for 21 days, no nose-to-nose contact

- Their own buckets, tack and tools

- Take temps daily during quarantine, twice daily if there's an outbreak

- Disinfect water buckets daily

- Do chores for healthy horses first, sick ones last

Recovered horses can stay contagious for weeks, and some become silent carriers, so ask your vet about testing before they go back out.

How does your barn handle new arrivals?

Eddy got a well earned PEMF treatment tonight. He LOVESSSS having his face pemfed. And man oh man did his back need it!!! I’ll do his lower legs tomorrow 💕💅🏼

I'm starting to get worried. Her heaves are exactly the same after starting treatment.

I think I'd like to try the handheld nebulizer first.

The reason I dont want to jump to the big machine (sorry forgot the name) is because she is still very very green and I worry about something happening where she spooks and hurts herself or break equipment, with that said if thats the only option I guess I have no choice.

Sometimes he runs through the sprinkler then rolls in the sand. Other times he looks ethereal in the early morning sun. He is a friendly sweetheart.

Just want to show off and brag a bit about my handsome boy! First full body clip and he couldn't of been more perfect. Stood like a rock for his legs, only needed ear balls in to do his ears and face. Not sure how i won the best horse to clip lottery.

hey guys! i just bought my first pair of tall boots after many years in half chaps. these boots fit me snug in the calf but the ankle seems loose? i am unable to return this pair, is there anything i can do to fix this? or do they seem to fit just fine, i just have small ankles lol. please help!! i’m getting mixed results on google. thanks!!

in one pair (my left foot) i am wearing my orthotics ontop of the tredstep insole which helps, but not sure if good for long term?

So a friend and I always walk to this horse who lives down the road from her house.. we have both agreed he does not look well taken care of. His teeth are grated down, hooves are long and he has bad body conditions. I know and own 2 horses but ive luckily never been in the situation of what do I do? Ive been debating on calling the rspca? What do you think i should do
