Saturday still warm

New Topic

• DaneHaven Posted : 2/16/2019 2:30:48 PM I did a couple errands yesterday and had lunch with Sis. Car thermometer said 86* Today forecast high is 77* B is coming to ride. I washed pig pen Jet in case she opted for him instead of Sarcee. Sarcee needs a bath also but is rideable with a grooming. Her fly veil arrived yesterday. I need a good way to attach a bell or two to her. Tonto's vision seems to be decreasing dramatically. I am trying to avoid having to keep him permanently in the round pen. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. LIKE 1 REPLY 513 VIEWS LAST POST CONNIE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Connie Posted : 2/17/2019 11:40:18 AM I have used fly masks in the past.  The only time I have been happy with one is when I had a very fine net one I used when riding.  I have found that my  horses either rub their itchy heads and irritate the eye with the scratchy net or become houdini's and just find a way to take them off.  I have found a roll on fly repellent that works quite well...looks a little odd with it circled around their eyes but it seems to do the trick.  I think Farnum makes it, not sure.  Also, as our dear Rob told us, pure vanilla cut with water works great on people , dogs, horses.  It does not work for a long time and needs regular refreshing but it does not sting their eyes like regular fly spray will.  They smell good, too. I miss our buddy Rod. LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
