I am a farrier and had a horse that his stifle would lock up a bit and seem to drag his leg, wasn't very fluid. You can try using a wedge on the hind, this help create more of an angle on the rear leg, most horses that have this issue are pretty straight in behind ( from stifle to hock ). Doing an i...

Stallion decision

I have decided to breed my mare Extra Quick to Magna Graduate. This is a 20/20 Goldmine match, he is free of Mr. P ( since my mare has plenty of it ) and the inbreeding back to Danzig seems promising. Remember this is a breed to race situation. Magna has been successful and you really wouldn't have ...

Thank you all that are in support on BCVR. There is not another rescue in our area that has as many horses in their care as we do. This is mostly funded by the owners of the property and the wonderful volunteers that we have. The owners have provided for these horses when they did not provide for th...

Well guys seems as if things are getting out of hand. Lets set the record straight, the rescue houses all geldings with one exception of a possible ridgling mini that was to be cut last week but the vet wanted to wait. The other 2 that are listed as stallions have now been gelded, theses horses have...

My first experience as an owner started with a filly that previously had ran for MDCL15000 at Turfway Park and broke slowly ( if you want to call it slowly ) spotting the field 15 lengths. She ran 2nd that day beaten 15 lenghts. She was put on the starters list and could not regain her gate card. We...

That is what needs to be slowed down, either by the foots own growth or by setting the shoe forward a bit to lenghthen the vulcrum. SPEED THE FRONTS , SLOW THE HINDS. if the hinds are trimmed in the same manner as the front, t...

What about EQ with TIZDAJAVU????? Extra Quick is inbred to both Mr. Prospector 3 x 4 and Northern Dancer 5 x 4. Tizdejavu is free of Mr. Prospector, which would be good for Extra Quick. As mentioned this mating is an outcross within 4-generations (no duplications) , but there are 6-lines of Northern...
