OT: Very well bred QH mare in N. California in trouble
This message is from: "plumg...@pon.net" HI all, I will try to be brief, but it is a long sad story. A friend of a close friend who runs a boarding barn across the street from our home (and who takes care of our horses when we are away) bought a well bred, well trained sorrel, with blaze QH QH mare. Her breeding is Big League Player (sire) and out of a Sonny Dee Bar Mare (I think it is Trows Sonny Gold,l but am doing this without looking at her pedigree.) The horse's owner bought her out of what I am told is a reputable barn in Georga for a very big price and had her shipped across the country. While she was being shipped, there was a terrible ice storm. The shipper stopped and offloaded her for two weeks in Texas...possibly in a place where there was ice. After she arrived her new owner rode her and she began bucking like crazy. The new owner is an experienced and good rider and she managed to get off safely during a lull in the bucking. This horse was showed in the east by a 9 year old rider, and won. She was trained for western ploeasure and had some reining training. On some occasions she has been ridden OK and she clearly shows her training. To my eyes, she is clearly a very finely bred QH, and is gorgeous to watch move. The new owner tried various things with her, but she bucked. So my friend recommended she go to a small training barn/cattle ranch to be ridden out in the hills. By this time I think she had had some body work and they figured she needed to be ridden in the steep hills where bucking is basically impossible...the horse just keeps going forward. Unbeknownst to my friend the trainer at this barn was separated from his wife and the person training the horse was his wife. Sometime later they got a call to pick her up. It is not clear what happened, but we think she had her nose tied to her tail, panicked and went down. She ended up with a stifle injury, and a small piece of the tip of her tail cut off. A year later I think her stifle may be OK, but she still bucks. The husband who was separated from his wife was persuaded to take her (at no charge...free lease) , with the idea of breeding her to a very fine QH stallion that would fit well with her. The husband was also going to pay for body work for her and try to get her in shape to be ridden and sold. This week the husband called and said he had a report from the chiropractor to say that she needed $3000 worth of work, and the whole thing was just too much for him. My friend will get the chiropractor's report. In the meantime, the owner's husband had to retire early due to illness and she also lost access to a free boarding site (she still had to provide food and care). She has no money to take care of this horse. In fact, she really has no money to even pay to put her down...which has been one of the options considered. My friend has no room at her boarding barn, and I have no room...and a husband who is not happy with the number of horses we have already. This mare is a sort of liver sorrel, with long, long mane and tail and a blaze. When she holds her tail a certain way, you can see that she is missing the hair that should be on the tip of her tail, so the effect of her long tail is somewhat spoiled, though she could certainly wear a fall of some kind, I suppose. On the ground she is quite sweet, though certainly not the really calm Fjord temperament. We have not started calling rescues yet, but the N California rescues are sufficiently overflowing that they are running subsidized euthanasia clinics. If anyone knows of a good option for her, please let me know privately. She is currently 9 years old. She has never been bred. Right now she is still with the trainer, but that will have to change fairly soon.

RE: Recipes - Also Mylar bites.
This message is from: "Tom Rounsville" I have used garlic for 5 years with great results for fly control. Several friends now use it. Does anyone use a Mylar bit and do you like them? I am thinking of a 3 piece snaffle for my fjord. -Original Message- From: owner-fjordho...@angus.mystery.com [mailto:owner-fjordho...@angus.mystery.com] On Behalf Of Linda Taylor Sent: Sunday, May 03, 2009 9:48 AM To: fjordhorse@angus.mystery.com Subject: Recipes This message is from: "Linda Taylor" My Boombah loves her Garlic Cookies. She has two daily either alone or in her Supplement Soup. Some people think I'm crazy thinking that garlic will control the fly problem but so what. It seems to work for her. I get the garlic product "Bug Off" in bulk from Summertime, Inc. GARLIC COOKIES 1. 2 cups garlic powder 2. 2 cups Nutrena Lite Balance 3. water 4. about 1/4 cup molasses Mix #1 and 2. Add #3 and mix Let stand for a half hour or so Add #4 and mix Put on cookie tray sprayed with Pam or whatever as the cookies stick and you may never be able to clean your cookie sheet. Put about half an ice cream scoop of dough for each cookie. 350 degree oven at first for about 30", then lower to 300 for awhile, then 250 for as long as necessary. Time and temp here depends on oven, size of cookie. Experiment. SUPPLEMENT SOUP Mix: 1. about half coffee can of Nutrena Lite 2. handful Norwegian Kelp Meal 3. "Joint Health" (Summertime,Inc.) 1 scoop (scoop provided) 2 scoops is initial first week loading dose 4. water, enough to mix the dry stuff with the Nutrena. Too much will end up on the ground, dripping out of mouth when head raised 5. a couple of Garlic Cookies if you don't give them at other times. I am now using the "Joint Health" as Miss Boombah was diagnosed at Davis last week with osteoarthritus of the knee. Poor little thing. Before Karen Keith and I had her she probably had a hard life on a dude ranch in Nevada with someone I don't care to mention. I suspect she was "rid hard and put away wet" on most occasions. The docs at Davis said "only lite driving and on level ground and with bute as needed. Fortunately we have a lot on level ground and she does need to be worked regularly to help control the problem. I'm very sad but glad that I have her and that she will continued to be cared for with love.

Re: muzzle
This message is from: katesei...@aol.com Valerie, you probably do feel about 10 times worse than she does, and also, you probably have a dreadful sense of guilt and responsibility on top of it. If it would make you feel better, I could probably modify a grazing muzzle for you to wear in a show of pony solidarity!!
