When people fight around you and the clock drags on so long ... When some folks act like children and fill you with remorse ... Go out into your pasture and wrap your arms around your pony/horse. His gentle breath enfolds you as... he watches with those eyes. He may not have a PhD but he is, oh so wise! His head rests on your shoulder... you hug him good and tight. He puts your world in balance and makes it seem all right. Your tears will soon stop flowing, the tension will be eased. The nonsense has been lifted. You are quiet and at peace. So when you need some balance from the stresses in your day. The therapy you really need Is out there eating hay!

Re: Saddles
This message is from: Kim Manzoni kim.manz...@yahoo.com Hi Julie, my Fjord isnt home yet and way to young to ever need a saddle now but I use Bob Marshall treeless saddles on all of my horses. They fit everything from the tall thin framed long backed Tn Walker to my fat stocky round foundation Quarter Horse. They come in various designs as well. With skirt, without...etc. Check them out. I love them. I especially love that I can feel the horse breathe and move under me. My QH had an issue with crowhopping - in a regular saddle I had no idea when he was about to explode. But in the treeless, I felt his back arch slightly and his back muscles tighten... it gave me that brief warning where I was able to change directions of his feet and get his mind off of the crowhop. He doesnt crowhop any more and I attribute it to the retraining I gave him with Natural Horsemanship and to my treeless saddle. :) From: julie haimowitz iamlogans...@gmail.com To: fjordhorse@angus.mystery.com Sent: Friday, January 13, 2012 12:57 AM Subject: Saddles This message is from: julie haimowitz iamlogans...@gmail.com Hi everyone, wondering what saddles you are finding fit your Fjords best. I have an old western trail saddle that has seen better days for sure and am hoping to find something to fit my wide and short backed girl and be comfortable for me as well!! I mostly rode her around the property bareback which I love but am ready to hit the trails and think it probably safest to use a saddle!

Fjord gelding needing a home
This message is from: Shannon Kaplan kaplank...@hotmail.com Forwarding on this message from our local spca: We are the United SPCA in Yamhill. Recently we acquired an untrained 4 year old, sweet, Fjord gelding with impaired vision in his left eye. We are trying to place him. His adoption fee is $500.00. We have had someone working with him. He is still in your pocket, comes when he is called Froto, and all in all is a good little boy. Would you consider adopting him and having some of your people work with him there to be used as a therapy horse? He can be registered, we have all that documentation. His Dam is a now a therapy horse at Healing Reins in Bend, along with his auntie. Please let us know if you would take on this project. We have 19 horses here for adoption. The more we are able to place, the better. Thank you for your consideration!
