Yeah she said she was completely blown off :/ said "he is just old" which in fact wasnt the case and he had Ehrlichiosis. He in fact did have a fever along with swollen joints. He was so sick. @Prism

Oof, yeah that's a terrible experience. TPR (temperature, pulse, respiration) should be taken at the beginning of every exam. The only reason I can think of to skip it is if the pet is very reactive and is a bite risk because of fear/temperament. That's when you send home a mild sedative and have them come back lol

My mom just want to a vet because her dog was sick, the vet didnt take his temperature or do an exam on him basically blew her concerns of said he has arthritis and thats what it. She almost lost her dog because of the carelessness. She thankfully took him to a different vet and they knew immediately what was wrong

Having bioactive reptile enclosures is so nice. I don't even have to clean them because the isopods and springtails breakdown the poop and even shed skin

I'm not saying there are no bad vets, but every vet I have ever worked with/known really do care. It's a tough job and has one of the highest rates of self unaliving of any profession :(

But I get it, some are just not present or patient and just want to rush along. It sucks when you encounter those.

Oh yes! I hate that she is walk in only but she is the only vet around here that seems to actually care about the well being of her patients

Bitless Bridles February 5, 2022 11:08 AM

I am looking for a cheapish bitless bridle for trail riding. Any recommendations? My mare seems to be the calmest being ridden out on trail with a halter but I would like to get an actual bitless bridle. I would like to keep it under $100 but it doesn't have to be.

Have you had a vet/dentist come and check her teeth? Id say start there if this is a new issue. What bit have you been using that she seems to not like?
As for bitless bridles - id say a S or Flower hackamore or a decent bosal. I dont know of actual "bitless bridles" to recommend but ive used the 3 ive recommended and like them a lot

I know it has nothing to do with her teeth. She was raised as a performance horse and has anxiety(from being stalled and over ridden). She is very calm being ridden in a ring with a bit, she just likes to be ridden bitless on trail rides. Thank you, I will look those up!

I have a flower hack I like a lot! Very gentle but more stopping power than a halter.
If you want to keep the halter action though, there are side pulls that do the same thing but are more bridle-looking :)

Thank you! I am open to anything, I will look around for one. It sounds like a flower hackamore is my best option!

I have good luck using a little s hack on a couple of my mares, although I do vetwrap the rope noseband to make it softer and wider.

Thank you for the suggestion! I will look into it.

Hope the flower hackamore works out for you!
Just to add, in case you wanna change it up ever or if someone else is looking for options here-
Two Horse Tack makes some nice cheap (~$50) sidepulls. You'll get pretty close to the halter action with one, and they seem pretty popular with the trail crowd - you can get biothane (easy washing) and bright colors for safety.
Milestone Equestrian also just came out with great sidepulls. Between 100-150 but still a great price point for what you get. She's done a lot of research on making them anatomical, relieving poll pressure, etc.
The main thing I'd advise against with bitless bridles are the crossunder ones, like a Dr. Cook - they're notorious for not releasing pressure, so the horse ends up with a vice grip on its face that doesn't release when you do.
Nothing wrong with a flower or little S hack, either!
Happy trails!

Thank you for the suggestions! My mare seems to do very well in the flower hcack but if anything changes I will look into those. I almost purchased a Dr. Cook sidepull, I am glad I didn't!
