Thanks for the great link Pamela!  The restoration information will definitely
come in handy :)  Ours is in pretty good shape considering the age.  I can't
believe it's that old!  We're pretty proud of it and now we can't wait for Thor 
to
grow up so we can drive him :)

  Not sure if the link to click on will work on a mailing list.  But this is a
 site about McLaughlin, and it appears they went out of business in 1915.
 Looks like they made beautiful carriages.  Bet your new (to you) carriage is
 gorgeous!

Information on sleighs carriages

1999-08-14 Thread Cathey Magill

Hi all!

I was wondering if anyone has any information or can direct me to any
information regarding the McLaughlin Carriage Co. Ltd from Oshuwa,
Ontario.  Today my dad just arrived with a sleigh that has their name on
the back of it.  What a surprise that was!  My husband and I want to
learn more about them if possible.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
Cathey

Re: rubbing tail

Someone posted some information on this subject awhile ago and I meant
to print it out but forgot.  My horse has been rubbing his tail for the
past year and now the top is completely bald.  We've tried everything.
He's wormed every two months so we couldn't see it being that.  We did
think it was boredom but someone mentioned in their post about tiny
mites or sometimes.  If anyone can forward me that info, it would be
greatly appreciated :)

Thanks,
Cathey

Thanks Bonnie!  I have to say that I'm a little partial though :)  This past
weekend he was halter broke.  I'm glad you liked my site.  I had yours already
bookmarked and will visit often :)

Thanks again,
Cathey

 Hi Cathey:

 Wow, Little Thor is awesome! Really nice web site. I bookmarked it so I can
 go back and ponder it all. Just got back into town after being gone three
 days - I had to go down to Redding, CA to see my grandson get married. Wow,
 it is HOT in Redding!! 113 yesterday, and today I fled home! A, S.W.
 Oregon's 100 degrees felt pretty good!

To shoe or not to shoe

1999-07-09 Thread Cathey Magill
This message is from: Cathey Magill [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi all!

I was wondering how many of you shoe and don't shoe your Fjords in the
summer.  The breeder I got Thor from does not shoe his herd in the
summer, only in the winter (with corks).  It looks like their feet are
tough and they look much tougher than my Apps but I'm just curious as to
what others do.  Eventually (when he's old enough), I will be using him
on trail rides and driving him as well.  Our landscape can get pretty
dry out here in the summer and that means a lot of rocks sometimes.  Any
advice would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, you can check out Thor's new pictures at
http://www2.crosswinds.net/~chinbit/Page11.htm.  I hope you enjoy :)

New to list

Hi everyone!

I'm new to the list and would like to introduce myself and share my good
news :)  My name is Cathey Magill and I live on the east coast of
Canada.  I'm married with no children but we have plenty of pets to keep
us busy!  I have been riding for almost 20 years now (Ack!) and have had
an Appaloosa gelding.  Just this past weekend, I finally bought a dream
horse - my very first Fjord :)  He is only three weeks old but just a
lovey.  He is going to be a brown dun and be between 14.2 -15 hh.  If
he's going to look anything like his dad, I'll be so happy but I'm just
happy with him anyway.  He won't be weaned until at least November so I
have weekend drives ahead of me.  He's only an hour away but I miss him
already :)

Anyway, I hope to get to know some of you better over time.  I'm more of
a lurker than anything but I enjoy reading the posts :)
