Which breed do you recommend for adult & kids?

Chey1970 @Chey1970 (1186) • United States 22 Mar 08

Me and my husband are wanting to buy a couple of horses. Something for us to be able to ride, but also for the grankids to enjoy too. We have 3 grand kids, ages 6, 5, and 5 months old. We definitely don't want Shetland Ponies,...

elainablack I'm right up there with Lightning on choosing a Quarter Horse (or maybe even a quarter horse cross). From my experience they are the most easy-to-handle horses I've ever owned. They really do, for the most part, have even temperments and are very gentle, a...

elainablack What an excellent idea! Your daughter is going to have so much fun! And I'm sure the pinata will be fine, she'll probably appreciate it even more because mommy made it. It just shows how much you care about seeing your child happy. What exactly are you...

elainablack What a beautiful love story. My situation was very similar. When I finally turned 18 I was introduced to my future husband, who was just about to turn 21. The age difference not being very great, my parents were still not very pleased, though they really liked...

Is horse showing fine with you?

hallmarkjl @hallmarkjl (500) • United States 6 Mar 08

Some people view showing horses as animal abuse, but others find it to just be a sport. I have friends who show their horses and have no problem with it at all. While others I know think it is wrong to put aniamls on display for...

elainablack Excellent discussion here! I have to agree with Enigma. I wouldn't have shown horses for 14 years if my horses didn't like it, or if I felt like it was abuse. My horses always enjoyed showing and would have periods of both nervousness and excitement, just...

elainablack I have 2 cats and 1 dog. My first and oldest cat is Phoebe, almost 10, and she's a Torbie DLH. My other cat, Sam, is about 3 years old and he's a black and white DLH. His markings are so distinct that it looks like he's wearing a tux! Our dog, Kloe, will be...

elainablack You know, this discussion really hits home for me. When my husband and I were still dating I was the same way as your girlfriend...never tired. I was always visiting my boyfriend, I'd come over after class, stay really late, and sometimes be back early the...

declawed

hallmarkjl @hallmarkjl (500) • United States 18 Mar 08

How old or young should a cat be when they get declawed? Do you think it is right to declaw a cat? How old was your kitty? We got my cat declawed when she was about a year old. We didnt want to wait that long, but things just kept...

elainablack The declawing of cats has long been a subject of much controversy. When it comes to individual cat owners and individual vets, everyone has an opinion as to whether it's beneficial and harmless, or cruel and pointless. Being the owner of both a delcawed cat...

Great sushi

spacepirate1551 @spacepirate1551 (17) • United States 24 Feb 08

I love great sushi. I enjoy going to different resturaunts just to see the difference and try their special rolls. I am looking to see if there are any other sushi fanatics out there.

elainablack I love sushi too, but it has been forever since I've had any. I had a baby girl nearly nine months ago, and doctors say you shouldn't eat raw meats while pregnant. So unfortunately it was nine months no sushi. Torture! But of course worth waiting for the...

I really miss him.

mamasan34 @mamasan34 (6518) • United States 19 Mar 08

Since my husband has been gone, I have really started missing him so much more. After he leaves to go back when his leave time is up, it's always the worst. I know he will be home in September, but knowing that he has left a few...

elainablack Hello Mamasan34, I can't say I know what you're going through, because my husband is not in the military, but I could really feel your emotion through your post and it really made me sad inside. Sometimes I think I take for granted how lucky me and my...

Inexplicable Bruising

killahclaire @killahclaire (3665) 19 Mar 08

As a small child I was always bumping myself and falling and would often have massive bruises on me. I have low platlet count(?) because I had a blood disorder when I was little. Basically it was kind of similar to Leukemia in...

elainablack As an adult I find that I bruise quite easily myself, though as a child it was written off as simply being overly active. I don't know if there were any red flags for me as a kid that would have indicated why I was bruising all the time, other than I was...
