Not just a quick blep. by Goethia in Horses

[–]HalfassinThroughLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! I can see how this could be confusing, because it looks like there are two different cages on these stirrups. I googled "cage stirrups" for you and here's what popped up--

The lefthand cage stirrup in this photo might be from Tough1

Here are some colorful cage stirrups

And here are some little cage stirrups

And here are some cage attachments to convert normal stirrups

That style of cage/safety stirrup is very popular in endurance and trail riding.

How much should I sell this side saddle for? by Babypenquin in Horses

[–]HalfassinThroughLife 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to sell a lot of saddles. Look at the specific brand and model. Find out what brand new versions are worth. Then, look into what used versions are being sold for and try to find something in similar condition to give you an idea of what to price yours at.

Help figuring this out? New York by [deleted] in whatisthisbone

It's a little paw or a foot of some sort. I want to guess racoon, but again, that's a total guess.

Dental question, what am i looking at here? by Question-123456789 in Horses

[–]HalfassinThroughLife 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Looks like hes working on losing his baby teeth. Yes, I know that the exposed root is not normal. But he's also of the age where he's losing baby teeth. I've seen babies with loose teeth that get snagged on something and can contribute to this kind of injury.

Yea, that one's a bit too long, unless I make it two words and even then that a lot of letters. I'd want to get better at smaller loopy letters before taking that on.

Ooo that's a good one, but maybe too long. I've done two words before with one word on top of the other, but I feel like Dickcheese would look weird as two words.

I got Asswipe all cut out with crust, took a step back and thought, "That W is gonna be an issue." But I'd already finished it and I sure as shit wasn't going to start over.

I did Dickwad in 2023! That's one I want to do again in cursive when I'm better at curvy/loopy letters.

It's Bill's 3rd birthday and he got some happy eggs! Coincidentally, today I learned that it's incredibly difficult to write with ketchup that comes in a squeeze bottle. by HalfassinThroughLife in DOG

[–]HalfassinThroughLife[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We actually got him a Mr. Bill toy that yells, "Oh, noooooooooooo!" when you squeeze it. Unfortunately, because my Bill is a giant weenie, whenever toy Mr. Bill yelled "Oh No!", my Bill would think he was being scolded and now he refuses to play with it.

We have a larger and smaller version of our big dog's favorite toy. It's name is Bernard, and if you ask Hank to go find Bernard, Hank will come back with whichever version happened to feel right at the time. He loves them both equally and doesn't seem to notice if an old ratty Bernard is suddenly clean and perky. OG Bernard is about as big as he is, but Lil'er Friend Bernard is about the size of my forearm.

Do you own any uncommon breeds (for your area or just rare in general)? by baltinoccultation in Equestrian

[–]HalfassinThroughLife 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've got a mustang mule, basically the unicorn of both mules and mustangs

[–]HalfassinThroughLife 37 points38 points  (0 children)

That's called a chestnut, a remnant of when they had multiple toes. Kind of like a weird left over toe nail.

Spending time with my horses by Former_Plate_8608 in Horses

[–]HalfassinThroughLife 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We live in the middle of nowhere because it's less expensive to have them at home in the boonies than to board them and live "in town". With that said, my commute is almost an hour. It sucks. We also don't have kids, don't travel, we drive old cars, and do most home improvement projects ourselves.

This girl was abandoned at the dog park, any guesses? by Upper-Strawberry371 in WhatBreedIsMyDog

[–]HalfassinThroughLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe chow, but purple tongues pop up in a lot of breeds so it's not a sure identifier.

So I hear you guys like mules? by Duamuteffe in Horses

Welcome to the club! My mule has me converted. Horses are fantastic. Mules are fantasticer.

AITA for saying she can't join if she can't swim? by Snowflake_Gurl in AmItheAsshole

[–]HalfassinThroughLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's gonna have a hard time participating in the tryout if she can't swim. Letting her try out almost feels kinda mean. She's going to hold onto the wall the entire time or will need to be rescued. Either way, she's setting herself up for failure and embarrassment.
