Eventable, roach it. Then using a few strategically placed ornaments (known as “roach clips”) to keep it in place.
(BTW. There is nothing cute about moose–especially when they chase you down the icy driveway in the dark…)
And what are you doing on the internet on your birthday evening, young lady? Shouldn’t you be out painting the town?
even table: why does mcm get pics and not me? am i not worthy? considering mcm left your barn and fired you, you should be sending ME pics. duh
In addition to trying the tack noseband, double-twisted wire pelham, and draw reins mentioned earlier, you might also try cranking the fences up a notch. It sounds like your three year-old is bored with the little fences you’re jumping him over and will stop running out if you challenge him a little.
I suggest entering him in the A/Os and having your trainer ride him in at least four schooling classes before your division goes so that he isn’t too fresh in the ring.
Maybe you could also tie your horse’s head to his tail overnight to teach him to keep his head down and his neck round.
WHAT!! Eggbutt are you telling me that FinderKeepers is not sincere about training my mare!!! 
The French also believe in playing soft background music while cooking…
That song that goes " Chestnuts roasting on an open fire…" doesn’t mean what you first thought.

that was my first thought too…oops for gutter minds…
seahorsetobe The foals of a cross like that will definately be worth some good money, I"d say start asking around 50,000 in utero and after they are born, you can up it to 75,000.
o come on darkstar! ace is for wimps!!! I prefer a nice blend of flax seed and benadryl, really does the trick for the “spirited” ones.
I am so upset.
I was just told that because I ride for other people, I can’t be an amateur.
This can’t be right, I do not get any money for it. I work hard for nothing. The only thing I ever get for riding the 16 horses a day my trainer gets paid to ride is a three bedroom house plus a Mediterreanean cruise every year including air fare…and, yes that island Chrismas but that isn’t the same thing. I never take any money to the bank in this country. Only in the Caymans and that doesn’t count.
I never had this problem before when I rode as Junior for almost 20 years, I can’t anymore because my birth certificate fell apart from all the white out.
My parents are selfish and wont buy me my own horses…something lame like the nursing home price went up…and that really sucks.
I don’t think this is fair at all.
Funny, I actually had my HS prom at Fort Bragg 
They are rescues - we are rescuing them from you. Am I the only one who sees the logic? Besides, you’ve been overfeeding them and that makes them more tender and juicy. The other rescues we have to feed for six months before they’re barely edible.
Scared? Moi?
No dears… I’m at a truck stop (can you say THIRD WORLD???) in some godforsaken dustpit, on my journey to get my 3-legged mare down to Texas for her “dose.” Spent last night at a nudist campground outside Mobile, and the gophers kept crawling in my sleeping bag with me. Or at least I think they were gophers. Could have been petite, hairy, redneck teenagers out for no good.
Someone save me… I think I’ve gone Western!!! There’s this really, like, cute, like, really cool and awesome cowboy sitting across the way with major bling on his belt buckle (not that I’m staring at his groin or anything)… and he can’t keep his one good eye off me. His glass eye’s on my mare. Maybe he’s kinky, or, like, lewd, or something? I mean, it’s not like she’s a sheep or something. Well that’s just gross!!! Not that I’m a prude or anything…
And if that Appy gets there first, no fair!!! I got first dibs!!! Do you think I should get my mare inspected now, or after the “deed?” She’s got some kind of a brand on her hip already… it’s a little faded, but I think it says “USDA.” It’s probably one of them high-falutin’ dressage organizations. Bet that increases her value ten-fold, right??? And then I can sell the foal for the big $$$$$$$$$$, buy me some acreage and set up a breeding operation all my own!!! Shoot, I’ll trade you my 3-legged mare for your stallion, and we’ll call it even!!!
Helen, that’s my husband you’re speaking of!
Ah, yes, but the old school bus or double wide won’t give you the versitility of a stock trailer/RV combo. You can live in it on your scenic swampy estate, and you can it to shows. With proper timing, it can be off-site whenever your place is appraised for property tax purposes. It’s especialy useful when “entertaining” the judge and/or other officials. And you need the kind with living quarters that slide out. And in. And out. And in. And go pretty deep. Slowly at first, then building to a…
'cuse me. gotta go!
Hey FindersKeepers: I’ve been looking for small schooling shows to use to desentize my OTTB here locally. I’m not having much luck finding dressage or hunter/jumper local shows. However, I’m finding lot of Walking Horse Shows. Do you think you can convert my WB dressage horse and teach her the walking horse gaits? Then I could actually show around here! There’s a Saddlebred show not too far away this weekend. It’s supposed to be a pretty good one. Can you teach her to rack by then?
I’m counting the days till I’m back in NC and having BBQ!!! (in two weeks)
Well, I am asking 1.5 million for each one, but I will give a 20% discount for anyone buying multiples. Of course I would like to sell them together as they have bonded together in the womb.
And again, this is NOT a sales ad.
thats the obvious answer. just get the cool helmet. or call the vet, because obviously there is something wrong with your horse…have you considered seeing the pet psychic? that worked with my horse sparky…he kept throwing me off, and then the psychic said that my horse was angry at me for always riding him, so i stopped. he seems much happier now…
Dear God Eggbutt (he he, I said butt)…
you forgot BOSS !!!
Shouldn’t I fill the community pool with BOSS and make him stand in it for three days, while the BNT rides him deep, AFTER sleeping with the Judge?
That will cure scratches (what I found out we have…sigh… now I can finally do some research on it - since i know what it is called)
New Title!
Please be sure all these equines heading for the barbeque chuckwagon are clicker trained so they can turn themselves on the spit every time we click.
I am ashamed to be part of the prom committee…but certainly count me in. Ya’ll are trying to exclude the popular clique and I personally don’t like it. Just because Jesse is Oreo dung at this point doesn’t mean he can’t also participate as Master of Ceremonies…we can channel him through an animal communicator at the event.
For the wall-eyed horse…just feed him some BOSS and he’ll be fine in 3 or 4 months.
