I will get it scanned and put on my web site after I get back from my long weekend. Amy Amy Evers Dun Lookin' Fjords Redmond, OR Fjord [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, I will Try. The reporter also interviewed my good friend Maggie McLaughlin, so it should be a really great article with all our input. Not sure what they'll do for photos yet. I'm going to send some of mine with the photographer they are sending out today (of course I'll be at work - so he won't be getting any doing shots) and Maggie is sending some of hers in too. We'll let everyone know how it turns out. Amy Amy Evers Dun Lookin' Fjords Redmond, OR Fjord [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Our Fjords in the news.....
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...had a reporter from the local paper out last night...a story on a different breed of horses for the sports section of the paper. This time...feature Fjordsthis week's Friday paper... Congrats, Amy! Hey, if you can, think you'll be able to scan the article any pictures? I don't think attachments work on the digest version of the list -- but if you do, I'd *love* to go to any weblink you might have of 'em! Congrats, again! Sher in Colorado
Re: Our Fjords are famous! =))
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Ruthie, I get that magazine and saw the picture you speak of. A lovely picture. It was a good article too, and just days before I got the magazine I had been seriously giving thought to letting my 2 bred mares stay to pasture with the stallion come summer, when they foal. They are with him now and are a very happy little group. The previous owner had always let him run with the mare and baby, with no problem. I have just not had the courage to try it in the last few years. After reading the article, it helped me make the decision to try it. I can only hope my experience is as good of one as yours has beenbut I wont know till I try it, will I ? :) Take Care, A. Day P.S. Hope everyone's Turkey Day is a good one!

This message is from: ruth bushnell [EMAIL PROTECTED] THANKS Jean... we remove Thorson in the last few weeks before foaling... not that it wouldn't be fine maybe, but our concern is that it might make the mares nervous (having their man nervously pacing up close, when he should be off somewheres out of sight boiling water instead= Then a couple of weeks or so after the foal is born he is let back in. He has always been perfectly wonderful with the babies. Ruthie This message is from: Jean Gayle [EMAIL PROTECTED] Big Head or not congratulations and I would love a picture to prove to my thoroughbred, mini and warm blood, etc. friends that you can leave a fjord stallion in with his mares and foals. Anyone know if you can allow the stallion around when a mare in the herd is foaling? If it were another stallion's get would it be alright also?

Re: Our Fjords are famous! =))
This message is from: Joe Glick [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a crossbred mare and stallion (Standardbred/Haflinger) that I keep together all the time. The only time I separate them is from the time she has her colt till she is bred again (By another stallion, my stallion is her half brother). This spring I took them both out to the pasture in the morning, around 8:00 AM. At 12:00 noon our neighbor called and asked if we knew that there is a baby horse in the pasture. We went out to find all three happily eating grass in the same pasture. No problems. I find it so much easier to handle my stallion if I keep him with the mare. She keeps him straight, so I don't have to. I wouldn't consider keeping a stallion separated from the herd, unless I have to for safety reasons or if a mare is in heat that I don't what bred. It's unnatural and makes them harder to handle.

Re: Our Fjords
hello Glen! i looked to your homepage and i liked the pictures of your fjords very much. on the dutch fjordpage you can find pictures of my fjord ido on the photo-plaza. http://www.thier.nl/fjordnl/index.html ilona Greetings! I think this list is a great idea. We have two fjords: a 7 1/2 year old mare named Breeze, and a nearly 2 year old filly named Nadia. Breeze we ride now, and will be teaching her to pull wagons and sleighs starting this summer. Nadia is just learning all sorts of things (like manners for example!). We just got a scanner so more pictures will start to show up on our pages soon We are in Petawawa Ontario Canada. Glen MacGillivray [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.nray.com/glen.htm
