I know that one works because one day I was helping them wash dogs and there was a dog infested with fleas. The dog one of that killed them all instantly

Yeah I have noticed there isnt much of a selection when they are that little. I will definitely write that down though when she is old enough
Angels angels
03:42:21 [1k+ brindles] Angel
Oh dang not old enough yet
There is a brand that works really really good that we sell at my work. Its called Wondercide flea and tick but it is for 4 months and older
MakeEm Fancy
03:40:42 Ally 💜
She would be around 12 weeks
Angels angels
03:39:30 [1k+ brindles] Angel
How old is she?
MakeEm Fancy
03:38:35 Ally 💜
I will definitely try what im using for the dogs on her and see if that makes a difference! Thank you
MakeEm Fancy
03:37:41 Ally 💜
Oh cool! I have noticed that when she is dry after her bath we still have fleas so its rather annoying
Angels angels

And if you are watering it down and it isn't working it is safe to put the dawn directly on her
MakeEm Fancy
03:37:07 Ally 💜
Yes we are :) and all our animals are treated besides her.
Angels angels
03:37:04 [1k+ brindles] Angel
Vinegar is safe for kittens too
Angels angels
03:36:24 [1k+ brindles] Angel
Are you treating everything the kitten is in contact with? It will kill all the fleas on them but if there are fleas in the environment they will just go back on them
MakeEm Fancy
03:35:46 Ally 💜
I wouldnt put the dog shampoo on her of course lol
MakeEm Fancy
03:35:19 Ally 💜
I have been using that and for some reason it just isnt working for the kitten 🥲 we use dawn dish soap, vinegar, water and dog shampoo for our dogs but not sure if that would be safe for a 2lb kitten

Farriers May 16, 2025 11:28 AM

It's so incredibly hard to find a good farrier which sucks because good feet on a horse is everything.

I have had the same farrier for two years now, and at first he was great. My horse's feet look great, and all was fine.

Lately however my farriers quality has gone down. He has trimmed my OTTBs back feet so incredibly short that my vet was concerned, and he destroyed the feet of another horse for my trainers client. I have been looking for another farrier, but in my area there is a small pool and most of them don't show up for their appointments.

People just don't want to put in the work anymore, and it's frustrating.

Yikes... I started doing my own farrier work 12+ years ago for that very reason. I read lots of books, some being the ones you would read if you got the certificate. I don't trim other horses since I'm not a professional, but I'm the go-to on trail rides when someone gets a crack or needs a touch-up. My horse chiropractor is also an equine vet and she compliments my horse's hooves every time and asks for my farrier's info and then I remind her it's me =P I think she has the same problem you are having.

I couldn't tell you why farriers start to decline other than their age and physical health. It would make sense. I am incredibly sore after doing my two horses and the second horse usually has a slightly worse trim because I wear out in 90 degree temps.

I'm not sure where you can look for a different trimmer. I used to have a certified barefoot trimmer come from another state and split the travel fee with other horse people in the area.

Maybe check out "the horses hoof" site for trimmers in your area. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post directl links on here.
