What has prompted me to build this web site is a
result of my journey with my horse Basq'l. She is an 18 year
old Arabian mare. When I got Basq'l she was under weight and
she had been standing in a confined area for about an year and
a half. She had very little muscle tone and she had (in my
opinion) Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
I myself suffer from back problems myself and have had issues
with chronic pain so the two of us set out on a healing path together.
Because I did so much research I soon realized that there was
no one central place that you could go to address alot of the
questions that I had. I wanted answers on how to calm her down
as she was hard to handle as well as how to get her weight up
and how to build muscle tone. I borrowed alot of books from the
library and set out on a quest to improve her life.
I believe
information is power and there are alot of great companies on
the Internet that can offer information and product selection
that unless you researched it you would not know that those
options exist. I do not believe that horses are just throw
aways after a certain age! Unfortunately one of the main areas
to go first on a horse are their joints.
In
regards to holistic health care and joint maintenance for your
equine friend buying from a on-line pharmacy offers you more
options and information that what you would normally get from
your vet. I have personal experience using remedies and prefer
them to regular medication. Holistic remedies and supplements
allow your horse to heal itself where veterinarian medications
just medicate the problem and don’t address the cause
of the problem.
Another
option to vet medication which I have had great success with
is the topics of homeopathic remedies. In this
site you will find information for your horse.
I also have tried to offer information on outfitting your
horse. When I got Basq'l I had nothing for tack not even a brush or hoof pick.
The more you read the more you know. In the Horse Book section you will find
items on offer like feature horse videos, books,
gifts as well as supplements, worm medicine and fencing.
supplies. Everything horse related!
Finally, because Basq'l was so 'shell shocked' I basically
had to start from the ground up (sort of speak) and relearn
everything with her. She had no boundaries and no sense of
herself and what was appropriate. I did not have access to a
'horse whisperer' so I had to find resources that offered an
approach that was consistent with the healing methods I was
using. I have offered information on training in this website
that I hope will help answer questions of how to gain a horses
trust and how to relearn a horse that is suffering from a
negative past experience with a trainer. See my Horse Training and Horseback Riding
pages.
Is shopping
on-line safe? Shopping on-line offers you better
selection, better pricing and the convenience of having your
items delivered right to your own door. All sites featured on
my site are secure, reputable and safe. My web
site is great for someone just starting out because
tit is a one stop source of all your equine needs.
Looking for great
selection there is a better selection on-line than you
would find in horse related
shops?
Over the years I
have relied on on-line stores to find regular and
specialty items that I could not find anywhere else. Most
retail stores just offer the ‘popular’ selling items so
if you are looking for something like an Arabian Saddle
it is usually a custom order and that drives the price
up. When buying on-line you don’t have that problem
because you are ordering from their catalogue of items
and what would be looked at as specialty items in a
retail setting is really their regular
item.
I hope the pages and information in this site
will help horse owners. I want to offer a new approach to
healing the mind and body of our equine companions. I hope our
story will help offer alternatives to unique and challenging
equine problems. Today I see so much change in her. She is
healthy, happy, has cut her weaving down by 80%. She is a
loveable, calm horse that I enjoy spending time
with. 
Sincerely,
Barb & Basq'l
