Thanks Lavinia, I wil get blood tomorrow. The trimmer comes on Tuesday, so will try to get hoof pics after that. I put up recent pics of Scarlet. I think they are in the right place. Mimi and Scarlet

Jaini, I can't believe I just wrote a very thorough answer and then tried to attach a photo and lost the whole thing! Thank you for your reply. I don't think Scarlet's weight is that bad. I will try

Hey Nancy - Amber seems to be just fine. My husband monitored her Friday and I stayed home on Saturday to watch her. I even got my riding instructor to come to my house to give me a lesson in my

Hello, It has been a long time since I have updated Clyde's CH and I will be doing that asap but I need opinions on the xrays I uploaded. I have only the front feet, from 2015, and 2016. Both

Rebecca, I am so sorry for your loss. I know Cindi will be hugely missed - they fill up so much of our hearts. From the various papers I have looked at regarding pergolide and human valve

Lorna, I finally met the farm hand at our new farm. He seemed knowledgeable and business-like. I believe we got the beet pulp in the sun situation straightened out; he will park the cart loaded
