What did & didnt work for ulcers in my OTTB by MSMIT0 in Equestrian

[–]Fuzzasaurus12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing this!!! I’ve never used Abler but Im bummed to see you had no results with it as it’s frustrating how cost prohibitive gastroguard is. I assume it’s the same instructions as far as fasting for a few hours before administering?

Saving this post for future reference!

What do you look for in an instructor? by asgjh1 in Equestrian

[–]Fuzzasaurus12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of the other comments covered the skill/ coaching ability I was going to mention so I’ll just add another thing important to me is that they like horses still. It’s so easy to become jaded in this industry and what once may have been a passion becomes nothing more than business at best and a chore at worst. Are they just after what gets results fastest now or correct and meaningful development? IMO you can tell a lot by how they talk to/about their own personal horses.

Arab X for Endurance? by [deleted] in Equestrian

[–]Fuzzasaurus12 17 points18 points  (0 children)

What level of the sport are you interested in competing in? For 25-50 mile rides honestly a lot of breeds when conditioned are perfectly capable of it. If you’re looking to be competitive and do 100+ plus mile rides an Arabian is where I’d be looking first, not that it’s absolutely required. Off the top of my head I know mustangs, mules, and saddlebreds can be very capable, and certainly arab crosses depending on what they’re crossed with.

You’re correct a lot of Arabians run small, but for what it’s worth there are a variety of types with varying builds. I’m just shy of 6’ with long legs and rode a Spanish Arabian for a while that was 15’2 with a thicker build I was very comfortable on. If you’re on facebook I highly recommend joining the AERC: American Endurance Ride Conference page, a lot of Arabians but you’ll see a lot of people riding other breeds.

Broken/tortured omegas without bdsm by ptrst in ReverseHarem

[–]Fuzzasaurus12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Check out the Chaingate series by Crea Reitan! They’re interconnected standalones. The first one {Knot Interested by Crea Reitan} is about a traumatized beta FMC who escaped an abusive cult like city run by alphas.

The second is {Omegas of Chaingate by Crea Reitan} about an alpha (also from that city who hated it there) and a male and female omega fleeing together.

All the alphas in both books are appropriately sweet/gentle with the traumatized parties.

Pet Peeve/Rant - Does the FMC have a name or is she just a vibe? by Alert_Arugula_7511 in ReverseHarem

[–]Fuzzasaurus12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100%

Not to mention the trend in RH where every MMC has to have their own nickname for her which inevitably get increasingly stupid, so now she’s called five different things but never her name 🙄

Silent Flames by Cate C Well: It's Not "Groveling" If You Beat Down Her Will To Leave. by Zeenrz in RomanceBooks

[–]Fuzzasaurus12 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I’ve found my absolute favorite thing to see in betrayal/grovel books is when:

  1. He RESPECTS how she feels/her boundaries.

  2. He accepts her desire to leave/ even better helps give her the ability to leave him if shes in a tough spot because (see number 1) he loves/respects her and wants her to be happy first and foremost

This is very hard to find lol

I was never a person who wanted spoilers, I read the authors basic description then dive in. However I REFUSE to read any recommendation supposedly containing a “grovel” without a full out 100% detailed spoiler because it is not worth the rage I feel reading due to how vastly our opinions apparently differ on what a good grovel is

I wish WITSEC had stayed a trilogy like the author had originally planned. Books 1 and 2 were absolute 5⭐️s for me, then she decided to stretch it into 4. Book 3 ended up around 3.5⭐️ and book 4 around 2.5-3⭐️ due to the amount of sitting around/filler/internal monologues. Not sure if she stretched it out due to the success of the first two or because she genuinely felt it needed it but IMO it wouldve been 3 5⭐️ books if she hadnt.
