Why is my horse overly eager to work?
I love a warm nose greeting me at the fence, but sometimes she anticipates our working so much that she will violently pace. She only paces when I come and she is in her stall. I go into her stall and she comes to the door for me and literally jams her head into the halter. I do exercises with her that not only ask a lot from her physically but I am also constantly working with her brain and gaining her trust. When we are done with our ride, we warm down and she goes back to her stall, where she is completely calm for the rest of the night.
I don't like the pacing and I am worried for the safety of her and for others when she behaves this way. Why is she like this and what can I do to fix it?

In chemistry class, we were touching lead and even breathing it in on accident. Are we too old (over 15 years) to be susceptible to lead poisoning? Should we all get blood tests to check for lead poisoning?
1 AnswerInfectious Diseases10 years agoCan I add marigold petals to my fly spray?
All of us horse people have had problems with flies and of course it's cheaper to make your own. Since the leading brands of fly spray are said to include marigold, would it better my fly spray if I added marigold to it? If you don't know, would you try it if you were in my situation? :)

2 AnswersEconomics1 decade agoHow do I figure out my horse's registration?
My horse's build is perfect, her muscle tone is beautiful, and my trainer says she's probably registered. How can I find her registration? Is there any way? Thanks :)
Btw, all I know is that she was dropped off at a farm, and I found her and saved her from slaughter. Also, the vet says she's 14 years old and I want to know her registration so I can show her. Gracias ;)

This was precedent for Dred Scott vs. John Sanford, and I just can't figure out who won the case. I know that three slaves got on a boat and escaped to Canada where they were officially free, but did their owner win the case against the steam boat captain or what?
