Hi everyone :) My new dressage/hunter prospect is an andalusian x clydie/arab/paint. He is a big black and white paint at the moment but the black will grey out to a dark steel-grey dapple. Due to his colouring, he has a big white patch over the side of his face which has resulted in a pretty pale blue...

Do you believe that certain breeds have certain temperment characteristics? Do you get frustrated when people group your horse in to a breed stereotype? I constantly get "oooh, a trakehner....no thanks. Far too stubborn and much too much hard work." Another common one "All arab...

Found this article from Kentucky Equine Research about Vitamin Requirements in Stallions and it got me thinking; what do you do to keep your stallions (or mares I suppose?) fit during breeding season? I know that stallions can lose significant amounts of weight during breeding season, and some...

Zenyatta no longer in foal :( I read this earlier in my Facebook news stream. Though I'm disappointed that she lost the foal, I'm optimistic about the next go-round. I do worry though that perhaps this could happen again? What do you think? Is this a common thing in maiden broodmares?

Hi there - Wondering what everyone recommends for riding throughout a mare's pregnancy and how close to due date do you go? My girl is 12yo and this is her 5th baby, but I've only had her for the past 2 years. Her previous owner said she rode her up until the last 30 days, but took it easy after the 7th month...

I just felt like sharing a recent picture of my little man. The weather has been extremely variable (and a -40C windchill the other day), so he's got his blanket on when it's cold and off while it's warm. Didn't even blink when we put it on, or when I was adjusting straps between his legs without his halt...

How does it work and what is the likelihood of it "taking"? would you prefer to take a show-ready mare out of work and risk her health for a greater chance of having a foal, or would you prefer to use a surrogate mare with less chance of getting a foal?

After coming across a few articles relating to some famous horses being cloned, or possibly being cloned (Gem Twist, Smart Little Lena, to name a couple), what is your take on cloning?

Well, little man got the go ahead from his vet to wean any time. He's looking great, he's very independent. His mom doesn't care where he is at any given time.
