Benefits from Stasser Equine

It has been a few days since I have last posted; we have been hard at work.

However, it is now time to reveal one of the items we have been working on! I am so excited about this new page and our idea's for helping others. I don't know why it has taken me so long to put "two and two together", but better late than never right?

You can see what I am talking about by clicking on the title of this post or by going to Stasser Equine.com and looking for the page titled "The Benefits fo Buying from Stasser Equine". There is a list of what we feel are three very important items that will help you as a horse owner as well as helping us.

In addition, the foals are doing great! Each coming along in their early training which includes, leading, tying, feet handling, fly spray, clippers, etc.... They grow so very fast!! And it is sooo important to start all of these things when they are little and don't know that it is NOT a normal part of life.

It also makes me get out of the house and away from the computer for some quality time - with horses. How much better can it get?

Until next time, many blessings!

PS: The foal pictured above is "Simon" - a son of Indian Artbeat and future HUS, Jumper, & Dressage Prospect.....

Indian Artbeat Foal

He's finally here!

Our "beached whale" had her foal on Sunday, May 17th. Both the foal and "Mom" are doing great. I am sure this guy is going to be 17 hands - his measurement from hoof to wither was 42" the day he was born! And his joints are simply huge.

His sire is AQHA Indian Artbeat and stands 17.2 hands as well. He has been proving himself in the Hunter/Jumper Ring as well as Dressage. And even though we were hoping for a black foal, we are certainly happy with this beautiful bright bay boy. He is a doll!

He'll fill in, I promise.

Thank God for an easy birth and a healthy foal!

Still waiting......

Just a quick Quarter Horse foal update: we're still waiting.....

Freckles was due last Saturday, nothing yet except for waxing. And Kitty is due today. Zip, zilch, noda. Which I guess is okay seeing as the temperature has dropped and it has turned windy.

At the same time, I hope they don't wait too much longer as I don't want either of them to have problems when they foal. And we have to be careful when we check Kitty. If you look under her belly to see if she has started to wax over, she will literally "suck it up" and wait another 12-16 hours before she will allow her milk to drop again. Of course putting off the birth of the foal.

And she is bred to a big stud this year - Indian Artbeat who stands 17.2 hands. So I'd rather not cause any further delays in the situation.

As for Freckles, like I've said before, this is her first foal so I have no idea what she will do or when.

I will post pictures as soon as I can.

Stay tuned...
