  • what causes a horse not be able to use their front feet properly when turning to change direction?

    I have a friend of mine who has a paint mare that was given to her a few months ago that was in bad shape. She was foundered but is now getting proper care. My question is what can a person do to help her bare weight properly on her front legs without hurting her. She walks a little stiff but here lately with some walking she has begun to loosen up. Going in a straight line she does fine but as soon as you change direction either side to side or at an angle she seems almost like she shuffles her front legs to get her body around. Yes she does have shoes on but only on her front feet. Would walking her in a large circle help and then try to gradually work in smaller circles with time. She is seeing a vet for founder.

  • What do you do when your dog cant handle dog food wet or dry or even home made food?

    I have tried everything I and my vet can think of to give to my Rat Terrier. She will be fine for about 3 months and start vomiting. She is now on Purina and has been for 6 months and recently she started vomiting again. She is 1 month pregnant tho I dont belive that is the problem. I have raised Rat terriers for years and she is the first one I have ever had that has this problem. Even the food for sensitive stomachs will not work. The unborn puppies already have been spoken for and are going to pre-screened homes. People I already know. Plz if you can help let me know. I have already tried raw food same situation.

  • Does anyone know anything about training disciplines for Lusitano horse?

    A co-worker of my husbands wants me to help train his horses. I know a little about the breed but the riding disiplines and training are different than the horse we have here. I know they are Spainsh bred and used in bullfighting, driving, and dressage. But these are high stepping naturally gaited horses. The closest thing I have ever ridden was a Peruvian Pasa Fino. (Love those horses.... No Trot!!!) Sorry if I spelled the name wrong.
