A Place For Us - Part 2   16th May 2012
A Place For Us - Part 2
Horse Fiction “Thanks,” She muttered under her breath. Cautiously she moved toward the stallion. He now pawed at the shavings on the stall floor with his right fore foot. “Easy,” She cooed quietly, “Easy boy.” Reaching out she brushed her finger tips against his well chiseled cheekbone. The stallion’s dark eyes fixed on her, snorts came forth from his nostrils and he arched his neck. “I’m not going to hurt you.” She whispered. Carefully she stepped toward him again. Sliding the clip of the lead line though the first metal ring on the stallion’s halter, she then clipped it to the opposite one. The chain rested light on his light face. Everything was still before he yanked his head back, shaking it as if trying to get free.

Your Horse from the Ground Up - Part One - The Hoof   13th May 2012
Your Horse from the Ground Up - Part One - The Hoof
Care and Grooming Understanding your horse’s anatomy is important. It will help you understand how your horse moves, and how to train him effectively and prevent injuries. It will help you protect your horse from disease and illness, and keep him feeling his best. If you are shopping for a horse, a knowledge of anatomy will help you choose a horse with good conformation, or at least recognize which conformation problems matter for your discipline, and which may be less of a factor. What’s most interesting about anatomy though is how it reflects the evolution of the horse, and there’s a lot to learn about your horse’s psychology just from how he’s built. In this series, we’ll take your horse apart from the ground up, and see how all the bones, muscles, tendons and everything else work, and what that can tell you. Let’s start right at the bottom – the hoof.

A Place For Us - Part 1   11th May 2012
A Place For Us - Part 1
Horse Fiction Brielle felt a tingle run up her spine as she climbed from her deep blue Ford F-250. The soft cool wind tousled her short chestnut hair, and caused her to shiver slightly. Her small frame looked as if it was blow over with the slightest force. Hazel eyes scanning over the landscape she shoved her hands into her pockets. The female ducked her head slightly into her oversized hooded sweatshirt as she trudged on toward the large white building. Swallowing back a bit of shyness that washed over her she reached for the doorknob. Her head turned slowly and she took in the sight of the fields, fields filled with horses. Memories filled her mind, and she felt her heart leap in her chest. Reaching up she curled her tiny fingers around the gold heart-shaped locket hanging from her neck. “You can do this Brielle.” She whispered to herself.

My Sweet Victory - Part 10 - The End   10th May 2012
My Sweet Victory - Part 10 - The End
Horse Fiction I rode Victory out onto the race track. I was wearing my new jockey silks and Victory was in his smart white bridle and racing saddle. The time had come. The vet had given us the all clear and Victory was dancing across the track in excitement. I gave a firm pull on the rains, “No boy,” Deep down, I was just as excited as he was, but I had to keep calm or Victory would get out of control.

I glanced around nervously at our competition. Many of the other horses were taller than Victory and all the other jockeys, I noticed, were male. They all looked much more experienced than us and suddenly I regretted doing this.

My Horse Dakota Put Down For Falling
by Faith forever on 6th May 2012
My Horse Dakota Put Down For Falling Horse Stories  Later that day we let out Dakotas beloved mare Cerria to get some exercise. Unfortunately, Dakota fell again and again galloping after Cerria. The vet advise us it would just be better for Dakota to be put down. With great apprehension, we agreed this would be best.

When led Dakota out of the pasture to the place where he was to be buried. Cerria went crazy and tried to follow him through the gate. It was like she knew something was wrong and was trying to stop it! When Dakota got into the field near the burial spot he once again fell down on his own. When the vet showed up he tried his best to get up.

It was almost like he was saying "I'm ok! I can walk, see!".

My Sweet Victory - Part 9   5th May 2012
My Sweet Victory - Part 9
Horse Fiction Warm sunlight filtered through my faded lilac curtains as the sun crept into the sky. Today was the day. Today was my race. I leapt out of bed, ran to the curtains and tore them open madly. I was met by a warm, glowing sun, blue skies all around and not a single cloud in sight. The breeze that blew in through the open window was cool; perfect conditions for racing.

I quickly changed into my riding pants and put on a polo shirt; the race wasn’t until 2:30, I would get into my racing gear then. A heavenly scent drifted into my room. Waffles; my favourite thing to have for breakfast. I galloped downstairs, following the scent to the kitchen and my mom, “Hi honey,” she attacked me with a hug, “Big day today! I’m making your favourite!” I quickly finished my waffles and dashed outside to go and see Victory. Nothing would
spoil my day.

Thunder - Not Your Regular Jumper   4th May 2012
Thunder - Not Your Regular Jumper
Horse Stories The first horse I owned was a Christmas present from my grandparents, a safe, sweet cob named Makaela Marie (Arabic for 'a gift from God). I was only 6, and therefore Makki was the perfect horse for me to learn to ride. However, after a few years I was keen to move on. I watched my older siblings leap over 4 foot jumps with their horses, but my mother refused to let me ride them. I didn't understand at the time, but I know now that a fiesty arab mare wasn't a good jumping horse for an 8 year old. I tried hard to convince Makki to jump higher than 2 foot, but she refused. She was a beginners horse, not a showjumper.

My Sweet Victory - Part 8   1st May 2012
My Sweet Victory - Part 8
Horse Fiction The rain attacked me as I struggled through the storm to the barn. Before stepping inside into the warmth, I glanced up at the angry, gray sky. Will the race still be on tomorrow I wondered. I quickly stepped into the barn to be out of the cold. Two weeks had gone quickly and now it was nearly time. I couldn’t believe it, my first race!

I strolled along the line of stalls, checking on all the horses. Sugar, my mom’s appaloosa mare, seemed slightly startled by the storm, but all the others were fine.

The Great Debate: Rope Halters vs Flat Halters Part 2 
30th Apr 2012

General The stimulation of pressure points is an exact science and unless the halter is tied on obscenely tight that it hits the correct pressure points any time there is pressure on the halter it doesn’t work. The knots do however create sore spots and/or bruising if the halters are left on continuously. While working on ground work, the knots do help give specific signals. People often add more knots across the nose piece; this is like putting a stronger bit into a horse’s mouth. The more knots the more severe it is. Another thing that contributes to the severity of the halter is the diameter of the rope. The thinner the rope the more severe because only a small amount of area is affected when the pressure is applied. Have you ever wondered why a rope halter was double stranded across the poll and the nose?

My Sweet Victory - Part 7   28th Apr 2012
My Sweet Victory - Part 7
Horse Fiction Upon my mom’s call, I and Victory rocketed forward into a fast gallop. I was wearing my new silks and Victory, well. Victory was just in his usual tack. The world seemed a blur when I was up here; I urged Victory on and checked my goggles were on tightly. I could hear his hooves pounding against the dusty track and I was glad my goggles were on properly as the dust flew everywhere.

We were quickly round the whole track and passing my mom again. She banged her hand down on the stopwatch and I slowed Victory down to a smooth canter, then a gentle trot. She beamed up at me as I approached her. Victory’s neck was smooth and dripping with sweat and he was puffed loudly; a bit like a bull I thought.

Horse Lineart Tutorial Basics   26th Apr 2012
Horse Lineart Tutorial Basics
Graphics This is a very basic tutorial. A lot of artists go into more depth with their work, and I often like to as well, but for the purpose of learning and gaining confidence I've just whipped up a quick tutorial to get you started. There are plenty of tutorials on sites like DeviantART if you want to go further. But for the sake of time, and my sanity, here's something for any beginners out there who want to learn how to paint linearts.

Horse Classified Ads - Buyers Beware
by Spyricale on 24th Apr 2012
Horse Classified Ads - Buyers Beware General  Although after reading my two previous articles regarding the correct and safest pathways to take when enduring the situation of purchasing a horse, there is yet another topic we must discuss. Many people just blindly purchase a horse without taking the best precautions that will prevent them from getting scammed, lied to, cheated, misrepresented to, and countless other things warped dealers and dishonest private owners will willingly act out for greed. Just like the seller should always beware, the buyer must also beware. Beware of exactly what, you ask?
