All natural horse care in the west of Ireland

After trying and succeeding to a small degree to learn the language of Equus for over 10 years I have come to the following conclusion.

The spoken word and the unspoken word, communicating by body language only, (that of the animals without words as we know it) are and always will be worlds apart.

If we moved to a foreign country we would have no choice but the take the time it takes to learn the native tongue if we wanted to live a full life & prosper in this foreign country (foreign only to us the immigrant). Or we could just fumble along and learn only a few phrases to just get by. The same should and sometimes does apply in the horse world or the world we would like to live in with our horses!

Another interesting article! I have purchased psyllium to trial on my (fat) horses this winter. I will keep you updated on the results.

I came across this very interesting article which I thought I would share with you. I have started treatment on my mare Polly who has had sarcoids on her udders for the past 4 years. We have "managed" them using initially Thuja cream and then with some success, Crest Toothpaste. They didn't grow but at the same time they didn't shrink too much. Since starting treatment with Aciclovir a few weeks ago the sarcoids have shrunk by appx 25%

Safe Journey my Angel

Three years ago we made a pact,

If life got too much you would act,

To show me your decision made. 

That time came two days ago,

I offered you food but you said no,

The time had come for you to leave.

We wanted to keep you but it was not to be, 

So we all kissed you goodbye,

And gave you love for the journey.

RIP Baby 15/09/2011 

A kinder soul I never knew. Safe journey my angel
