(interesting how in your own home and herd they

get the injuries I see at a boarding barn

Rascal (who lives in his own muddy backyard, thank you)
Isn't this the
truth! The second worst injury any of my horses have ever had was because
at the boarding barn they decided all the pasture boarded horses should be
separated into mares and geldings. My gelding pawed at the fence to get to
the mares he had shared a pasture with for the previous year and almost cut his
left front foot off. He'd never bothered ANY mares, but because they'd
heard that not all geldings and mares get along, they split them up. I
know we've had discussions before on RC about the mare/gelding thing, but I've
never had a problem. . .
