My 16 y/o QH gelding has been stocking up lately. His schedule:
-6 months of the year he has 24 hour turn out when the weather is cool and dry
-6 months of the year he has 12/12 stall/turnout during the wettest, hottest, and most mosquito-prone part of the year.
On mornings when I exercise him, the fluid build-up quickly dissipates. Other wise, it takes a few hours of him being outside. I've got about 2 more months to go until he will be turned out 24/7. His legs and feet are otherwise healthy and sound.
Should I start leaving him out now even with the wet ground and high mosquito pop. (he's fly sprayed regularly and wears a mask during the day)? Any thing other than exercise to help with the stocking up?
Hey y'all! I just recently purchased an ottb gelding. To make a longish story short, because of being bucked off many many many times by my non ottb mare ( turned out to be back problems which now limit what she can do), my confidence is shot when asking for the canter. Any tips on how I can build my confidence back up? I will begin working working with a trainer at the beginning of September, but would like to start building my confidence back up before then.
This is everyone's last chance to get in and remake some of our emotes. Anything that has not been claimed from any one of the tables, including G and H, is now open to complete.
If you have no idea what is going on, please consult the original post to get up to speed on what is happening.
Choose an emote, remake it, then get given another one and so on. Check the original post for the requirements of the remade emotes you need to create.
