There is an acronym in inner city ER’s called SOCMOB. Every victim of a shooting or stabbing was “standing on corner minding own business”

That’s your opinion, not fact.
Definitely not… or at least wouldn’t be competitive in the hunter ring. She cross canters 99% of the time on the right lead… which seems to not be comfortable for her. I wouldn’t put her in the hunter prospect bucket.

Hmm. For someone doing horsey business in the Southern half of the USA, it doesn’t matter that much if COTH has truly international reach. It matters whether it’s being read in Florida and California.
My sense is that COTH the publication and the forums trend more to English sporthorse disciplines and hunters. Less to breed shows. So if you were embedded in say Arab circuit you might pay less attention. But jumper, dressage, eventing are more likely to follow it.
Also just because you are not internet savvy or don’t follow a given platform doesn’t mean no one else does. That would be like me dismissing TikTok as a social force because I don’t follow it or really like it.
But what really matters is what comes up when you Google.

This is a post that had to be written @fargaloo1
Thoughtful, kind and constructive. I’ve felt that the OP was of the impression that “any publicity is good publicity” by continuing to participate. The OP has inserted much of her passion for breeding and, indeed, the braiding is beautiful but how one comes across - should a prospective client be doing their homework - is not how she believes it will.
@Kasheare - please read and re-read Fargaloo1’s post - your admitted defensiveness and willingness to argue on various points just puts you into the too hard basket as far as potential business.
Edited: apologies for the brain fart - referring to Kasheare as OP was incorrect.

I didn’t think anyone had brought that into question. Lovely braids.

Really? It was asked. Asked. Nothing implied you don’t braid well. I sense this eagerness to take offense might be part of the problem.

Maybe just because everyone has taken offense and needed to discuss every last thing about my entire life on here lol

I legitimately do not care. This entire post, from others I’ve sent here to read including many clients, is laughable. So thank you but I’ve got this. Have a nice day

I don’t have any tools that will allow me to analyze that for someone else’s website.

Of course I would because people asked me genuine questions about my breeding, my braiding, my dogs etc

Somehow I feel like your “Have a nice day” was metaphorically a beer over my head 
But, okay, you’re the captain of your own ship - happy sailing to you!

Especially when one intends to be admitted to the Bar in the state where said altercation occurred. But, whatever.

I love it when people complain about being the subject of drama, but continue feeding and causing the drama.

OMD, just so you know, she actually means ICSI embryos, not ET ones. Because of the very expensive microscope and microdissection tools needed to manipulate embryos for the biopsy, this isn’t usually done with regular ET embryos, only ICSI ones that have been cultured in a lab.

It doesn’t matter, does it? That person is still the victim of a crime.
