 On today's Forest Service fire map http://www.fs.fed.us/r1/kootenai/fire/
 it appears that there are quite a few fires north and west of Libby.
 Further, it appears that most of these fires have no personnel
 committed as yet. Could some of the local folks let us know if the
 fires are going to have any detrimental effect on the show. Cynthia
 and I have been planning on coming up there for the show, so I've
 been keeping pretty close tabs on the USFS fire reports, but I know
 sometimes things can look worse on a map than they truly are.

dear gail,
so mugging is the in your face, all over you behavior.  i get it.  john
lyons rubs the horse to submission and the horse will get so sick of rubbing
it pulls away.  clinton anderson, motions with his hand first, if no
response then a gentle tap if no response then a little stronger tap, etc.
all these ways, eventually the horse learns, to not get in your face or your
space.  gotch ya, denise

 Martie,
 I have tried to reach you privately via your email address, but 
 haven't
 had any success. I thought I'd try the Fjord list, figuring that you'd
 find my inquiry here or another list member would know how to contact
 you. I visited the Photopoint site and love your Fjord suncatchers.
 Please email me with info. regarding sizes and prices! Best regards,
 Melissa

Tish Crippled up and moving in Great Pain
and Elphie Big Jump Equine


Ahhh Tish. done that, been there,and to think I bought a Fjord so
this would not happenoh me oh my...can't wait to hear the answer for
this one. I sold a beautiful 15.2 hh  Appaloosa gelding...my own old mares
son, for that very reason.  He would shy and jump a great big jump
sideways I did not fall off him  through shear good luck and not
management. I pray to heaven Storm will  not do that.  As for the meds you
are taking for the pain...take it with food, and make sure it is coated.  I
was taking a 600 mg pill morning and night and it made me very sick to my
stomach.  It was for Plantar Faschiia (spelled right) in my right foot and
right now I will put up with the pain thank you very much. (:  I am going to
try 200 mg ones that are coated if the pain gets bad tho. Well gotta go get
ready to join the group of riders I am with.  Cross your fingers that I will
not get dumped off hubbys 15.2 hh gelding.  (:

As I said though, given the low fertility of a yearling and a 30+yr old
mare, I would think the odds of her being pregnant are slim to none.

Thanks Steve...when I have my regular vet out next week for the annual
shots, I will ask him what he thinks about checking out Duchess for
pregnancy.  He has been her vet for 24 years.  But thanks so much...I do
agree with you that the chances of pregnancy are remote and I sure pray you
are right.  I am heading out tonight to meet up with a group of horseback
riders to continue riding for money for therpeutic riding.  My hubby has his
gelding and also our 4-wheeler is on the trail..  We all started out early
Sunday morning and, when the old railway- cross- Canada trail, that we were
following came close to home, I got hubby to bring me home for the nite on
the wheeler.We then took his 4 wheeler back out by truck to join the group
of riders, came back spent the night and he rode off to join them on his
horse. ( We took the wheeler to haul a trailor of supplies)...there are 8
horses so far and three 4-wheelers. I will ride some on the horse to spell
hubby off and give us each a break. We are doing a 100 mile Millenium ride
from Fredericton, N.B. to Perth.  We are tenting at night in the woods along
the trail.  Having a great time.  We will be back home on Sunday.  Wish us
luck.

dear gayle,  i don't know what mugging behavior is, please explain.
thanks, denise
 I've recently discovered that clicker training works much better if I
 deliberately train away the mugging behavior.
