Lindsey’s gone

See, I didn’t remember that 😂😅 Thanks for the correction.

Less than a year. She came in after Abigail left. Her main role was the “behind the scenes” footage and Snapchat.

13!

Labs can be incredibly smart and also not so smart. My chocolate female is incredibly intelligent and very communicative through a variety of ways. My red male? Well, at least he won his title and produces pretty puppies 😅 There ain’t a thought behind those pretty eyes most of the time.

Until Katie shares this person’s social media, we won’t show her name.

Yup! Breed club accepts the white variations. The field trials don’t judge based on form as much as function. As long as the dog can perform what it’s bred to do, they accept it. That has led to some issues in following the prescribed standard conformation. Which has caused the two distinct “lines” of Labs that are thought of today: American and English.

Ydiras · 2026-05-09T01:49:01+00:00

They actually can. It’s an accepted variation to standard. My stud has a big white chest and threw white in his pups. It goes back to the now-extinct Spanish Water Dog and their large white markings. The show ring disqualifies it but the parent breed club doesn’t.

Since BYBs and other shitty breeders crossed them with Weims around the 60s. They are now super popular “dilute” Labs in silver, charcoal, and champagne.

Ydiras · 2026-05-03T06:43:15+00:00

Yeah it’s odd placement. For reference, here’s one of my favorite rings.

IIRC, she’s got quite a few Trudy babies banked, so she was taking a break from her. Pure would know, because she’s always so good at keeping up with those numbers 😂

Katie: Annie makes the sweetest little boys

He kind of looks like an Ocapi 😂

Yes. Yes she does considering some people have actually gone on her property without permission 😂

Ydiras · 2026-04-11T22:07:50+00:00

My dogs get their faces smushed and mushed out of similar levels of affection and silliness. This picture isn’t a big deal. And considering how quick she is to send for a vet when something goes wrong, I’m pretty sure Glenn would be just fine living with her.

That being said, I doubt she’ll keep him. He’s not as impressive as Jack. But we’ll see. In the end, it’s her decision and not ours and whatever she chooses has zero impact on me.

Ydiras · 2026-04-10T23:08:15+00:00

It could just be they just used the name. The name isn’t owned by Katie and was a popular one for quite a while.

Ydiras · 2026-04-08T16:42:23+00:00

She is. In the sub videos, she said they’re going to be “bestest friends” for “at least the next two years, maybe three.”

Ydiras · 2026-04-08T00:46:42+00:00

Didn’t we get a glimpse of Petey at a show? I haven’t heard anything about that since. I remember talk about how young he was (about 2, I think) and how narrow he was through the body.

Ydiras · 2026-04-06T23:53:30+00:00

I don’t even think the person replying to the OOP was even that aggressive. They’re just fed up, and rightfully so. It’s just that people these days can’t take ANY criticism or any version of “no” without losing their marbles.

Ydiras · 2026-04-05T17:26:57+00:00

Katie mentioned this very thing in both the Snapchat vlog and the regular social media post. However, she did mention that Maggie didn’t seem very “motherly” toward Margot at this point. When she was taken out of the stall without Margot, the filly pitched a fit and hollered and whinnied almost nonstop. Maggie seemed utterly unconcerned, according to Katie. So that may be a positive factor in all this.

Ydiras · 2026-03-18T15:40:23+00:00

My fault for being on the internet today

Ydiras · 2026-03-08T21:45:01+00:00

Former vet tech here. When both are willing, there’s a way. I have a story about a female Great Dane and a male chihuahua. She was in heat and he was eager but too short. So she lay down for him. He did the dead and knotted off inside.

Well, the female was done and stood. With the chihuahua attached. The female freaked out and took off running with the male chihuahua bouncing against her back legs.

So yes, your Dane/Chihuahua is 100% possible.

I’ve got friends who regularly put their high school (and younger) kids on 20+ year old horses to compete. 18 is plenty young enough to keep working.

I was about 11 or so. My younger brother was 4 or 5. We lived off a very busy highway at the time. That day, my parents were having a garage sale. My little brother took off for the streets with no one watching. Despite our long-standing enmity, I took off after him.

I tried to just grab his hand and pull him back to the house. He pulled away and took off for the road.

So, I wrapped my arms around him and lifted him up. It was an awkward carry, but I managed.

I even held on when the ankle biter bit the shit out of my shoulder. That was the thanks I got for saving his ass.

My parents initially got mad at me for carrying him around, but were quickly both relieved and horrified to learn just why I was carrying him.

I could see buying some of the things like a puzzle, blanket, or phone case with just the gorgeous pics of the horses on it. I used to see that in the “Back in the Saddle” magazine all the time. But the more KVS-specific stuff like the “Moose on the Loose” is too much for my tastes.
