  • Kylie gets body clipped

    Posted on Wednesday September 30th, 2009 at 00:07 in Horses, kylie

    Since winter-coat growth is governed by daylight and not temperature, horses will still grow a thicker coat when the days get shorter even if it is one hundred degrees out. I tried explaining this to Kylie, but she grew a thick woolly coat anyway. He...

  • Joint Injections

    Posted on Wednesday September 9th, 2009 at 20:46 in horse, veterinarian, kylie

    I could feel it was time to lube up Kylie's joints. She missed a lead change the other day, which is extremely rare and her stride has been feeling a bit more choppy than normal. It has also been quite some time since her last injections. Horses with...

    I took Kylie to a show Saturday and she was super! I had to get up at 3:45am to pick her up and haul her over to the show. It was early, but nice and cool since the sun wasn't up yet. She warmed up great, nice and relaxed, jumping good and solid. She...

    Both my girls were so good today. They both got a schooling session from my trainer. Here are a couple jumps with Kylie. I haven't jumped her much lately so she was a bit excited, but behaved well. I only have a point and shoot camera with a little v...

  • She wanted to run

    Posted on Wednesday May 20th, 2009 at 17:42 in Horses, horse, kylie, warmblood

    I had a nice ride this morning and afterward decided to let Kylie run around in the lower arena. It was a quiet day with most everyone at a horse show. Kylie doesn't utilize her turnout time wisely (she just stands in the corner waiting to come back ...

  • High Maintenance Horse

    Posted on Thursday May 14th, 2009 at 22:36 in Horses, horse training, veterinarian, kylie, warmblood

    I know there are all levels of care different horses need depending on what you do with them, but I am pretty sure mine is on the high end of the "needy" scale. There is quite a routine involved to keep her sound and happy.Every horse is different, b...

  • Evening Ride

    Riding with my friends in the dust...where's that water truck?I am surprised how much energy Kylie had tonight. It was about 90 degrees, I would have thought she wouldn't want to move to much in the heat...wrong.After sitting at a desk all day it is ...

  • A hot night at the ranch

    Posted on Tuesday April 21st, 2009 at 23:45 in horse, kylie

    Not too much excitement tonight, but I took a few photos at the ranch. After work, we loaded up the dogs and headed out to the barn. The temperature gauge was in the nineties at 5:30 pm, ugh! It was too hot to do much riding, I knew Kylie wouldn't b...

    Luckily I had a good ride tonight because on the way home it started to rain, and another storm is on its way in on Friday. There were a couple of deer at the barn tonight, luckily no bears. It is nice to unwind with the horses after a day at the off...

    Not the best pictures. I took them after work, so it was dark by the time I got out to the barn....

  • Weekend Recap

    Posted on Sunday March 1st, 2009 at 23:50 in Horses, veterinarian, kylie

    I made some amazing lip balms! I always have to have something on my lips. I cannot stand the feeling of dry lips, so I am addicted to lip balm and put loads on during the day. I can never have enough around. I have lip balm in my purse, in the c...

    Posted on Saturday January 31st, 2009 at 21:17 in horse, kylie, mazzy

    I enjoyed the sunny and almost 80 degree clear day today with my horses. It was so nice out, I gave Mazzy a bath. Mazzy lost her first tooth this past week. Between the age of 2-5 yrs and 4-5 yrs the normal horse will shed all its...
