Rolling on horseshoer?
This message is from: Eileen Perry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hello, Thought I'd share a 'Fjord moment'... I've had horse try to roll (with me on them) in streams, drop on their bellies to thwart a horse fly, stop dead from a gallop to roll - well you get it the picture. But try to roll on the horseshoer? Jane was getting her feet trimmed, and started to lean onto her right shoulder. Not a little, but a lot. The shoer just let her lower the shoulder all the way to the ground. Then she rolled onto her back, and started to scratch her back (belly up) like a dog. The horseshoer was laughing, saying "boy, she's just a bundle of nerves, isn't she?". Good thing she's s cute. I hope this is just a terrible twos thing. Eileen in eastern WA.

This would be a great opportunity for fjord artists to donate a piece of their work and have it displayed at the show. These raffle items are real important for the group as they support the all important fund raising aspect of the group so please support the PNFPG. We are gearing up for the big event by working our horses daily and in this heat it's certainly been a challenge. Shirley Anderson, I've lost your e-mail address...please contact me. I am also looking for a room in Libbyso if anyone has a reservation and will not be using it,please contact me right away. thanks. I have just been contacted by a Norwegian Knitting company who made the Norwegian sweaters that were so sought after in Norway this year. It has fjords knitted into the pattern (not the actual animal but a picture) and are very nice...I'm sure you will see them throughout the country at some of the horse events as about 12 of us managed to weasel them from district members in Norway this springThey asked me to see if there is a market in N.A...IS there?

Good questions. The pooling was noticed 2 weeks after breeding when she was ultrasounded to see if she was pregnant. After being bred on a HUGE follicle, she wasn't. Vet said it was due to pooling. And the fact she hadn't been bred in a couple of years. Second time around, it was a perfect pregnancy. The leaf is not from my garden. My dogs, LOVE to destroy my raspberry canes. I order it already dried from the health food store. I imagine the wild berry would work. Instead of freezing them, dry them the way you would dry herbs. I don't know if it is necessary from 8 months on, but it is supposed to help keep the uterus toned, and 8 months is a good time to start working on it. Not too much though, as you don't want early labor. NOT that anybody has had that happen due to the leaf, but why chance it? Anyway it did seem to help Juniper's last delivery. Pamela
