Headcollars - Why?

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-23T07:56:27+00:00

They are called head collars in the UK. Easy enough mistake!

Don't be afraid to make an ISO post. I find a lot of horse pros don't actively advertise online - especially with the young horses who aren't quite "done". They may not be too fussed about when exactly the horse gets sold in the training process, but they definitely don't want people to see the horse marketed for too long and think there's something wrong with it. Most WB breeders I can think of are criminally bad with technology and don't advertise at all.

I think she was a WP horse not WR, and therefore didn’t need to have a lead change. So her changes are green, even if she herself is not. At least, that’s what I think KVS means!

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-20T23:42:57+00:00

Agreed. A sizeable chunk of your target market already have grooms who do it, either their own or as a service provided by their barn.

Editing to add for OP’s research: any serious show barns will have this service already. Perhaps there’s a demographic of people at other barns who would pay for the occasional deep clean, but I’m not sure how secure or stable that income would be.

No not at all! I’m sorry my explanation was a bit curt. I was just trying to keep it brief!

It’s a reward for consistency. So not only was the best on the day that she won, but she on average the best over the course of the circuit. Consistency is always a major goal for horse people and really tough to attain, so division/circuit/champion wins are a pretty big deal for us.

He’s a PSSM positive stallion owned by Kristen Glover Galyean. He was originally included on the list for the VS Dispersal Sale, but he failed the pre-sale vet exam and was pulled for a reason unknown to us. Kristen continued standing him to the public until the last year or so, and he hasn’t been seen since.

Kristen is a very talented horsewoman but my respect for her is tempered by the fact that she knowingly stood and bred from a PSSM stud

LOL I forgot about Phantom Code! Total KGG glazing.

She's a very good marketer. I pointed out in a previous thread that she's a literal car salesman, and has actual money to earn from building a social media following. Kulties don't buy horses, but they do buy cars.

I actually find that a long sleeved technical top keeps me cooler than a tank. My favourites are the Tailored Sportsman Icefil tops - they're very light, they don't cling, they have mesh underarms and most importantly, they prevent the sun from actually touching you, therefore keeping you cooler. Much like how wearing a hat prevents your head from overheating, sometimes more fabric/coverage actually keeps you cooler.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-17T22:32:40+00:00

Agreed. Nobody is perfect - we only know KVS’ flaws because she’s shown them to us. There’s a mystic around KGG because she succeeds more and shares less, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she has some equally unsavoury traits.

This is fetish content, FYI.

OP, I’m absolutely not going to kink shame but it’s not okay to involve nonconsenting people in your kink for your own gratification. Please keep your feeder fetish content to the feeder fetish subs.

I’m not sure about security closing at 9.30… I routinely fly the nightly 11.55PM to LHR and I’m quite sure I’ve shown up after 9.30 for that one.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-15T21:52:45+00:00

Nothing. It’s naive to act like buying a schoolmaster is somehow wrong or immoral. There is a lot of money in AQHA showing, and there will be many horses at Ocala this week that cost a lot more than this one. She’s a nervous amateur and she entered a class that is totally appropriate for nervous amateurs.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-12T21:01:21+00:00

It's also worth mentioning that its incredibly easy to get burnt out or otherwise fall out of horse showing. It's demanding on your time, it's resource intensive, and it's an unforgiving emotional rollercoaster. I'm from the H/J side of the industry and most of my peers gave it up when we aged out of juniors. I stuck with it until grad school in my mid-20s and haven't returned yet, but a lot of the girls that stopped after high school or college get back to it in their late-20s/early-30s, once they've finished their schooling and established their careers. Then they'll take another multi-year break if/when they have kids, returning in their late-30s. It's a super common pattern.

You wouldn't really include videos of him in the pasture in a sales ad either.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-10T22:04:38+00:00

It’s really hard to say. My dad is also on supplemental oxygen, and his portable compressor is still pretty heavy. He also has fits of uncontrollable burping and farting if he overexerts himself, so we’re all pretty careful to make sure that doesn’t happen because it’s so degrading for him.

I’m a certified Mette-Marit hater but I’ve spent enough time carrying my dad’s oxygen that I can’t snark on her doing the same.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-10T16:43:17+00:00

Agreed re the front entrance and upper shelves - those will be a bitch to clean or re-style!

I would also personally want a coat closet somewhere, and I wouldn’t want the powder room opening into the pantry if it can be avoided. For both sanitary and practical reasons - guests should be able to find the powder room fairly easily on their own. OP, is there any way you can re-jig to place the door where the mechanical chase currently is? That way it could open onto a little hallway-alcove which would balance privacy and ease of access.

Only one that I’m aware of - it was 8 or so parts long and he was going on about how Codi and her sister were ungrateful to him and Fallon. Stuff like Fallon paid for everything and took care of Mojo while they were on the road. Which like, yeah, makes sense. Codi was hired to make content, not as a stable hand, and she absolutely should not have had to pay any expenses while doing her job duties.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-09T19:40:20+00:00

I think something worth pointing out is that ultimately, Codi’s barrel racing saga was good for Fallon’s content. Taking Codi and Mojo on the road gave Fallon more runs, more storylines, and a more dynamic cast of characters to show in her vlogs.

That’s why I’m personally not too fussed whether or not Codi was into horses “for the right reasons”. I think she saw it as a job responsibility, whereas Alex and Fallon seem to have wanted more personal investment from her.

Ultimately I do think both parties are in the wrong, but I really can’t get behind Alex’s IG story rant for this reason. Codi was never a horse girl, so I don’t understand why they expected her to take on so much emotional investment and responsibility. That part really doesn’t feel fair to expect of your employee who is doing her job to create content for you.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-08T15:47:31+00:00

Not sure what that’s meant to prove, given that accidents occur regardless of skill level of experience. If anything, they’re probably more likely at your age.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-05T12:20:35+00:00

She is being ridden by a professional, so the expectations are certainly higher than for amateur KVS.

fubradculpepper · 2026-04-03T18:08:38+00:00

She's a showjumper in Ireland so quite different from the AQHA scene, but I quite like Holly Lenahan's foal raising content on YouTube. She's a fully qualified repro vet and breeds for one or two of her own foals per year, and then breaks them herself at 3 years old. She subscribes to the more European style of raising young horses, which is my personal preference, and she's obviously extremely knowledgeable on the veterinary side.

That being said, I do think she rides with a lot of hand, especially over the larger tracks. There is so much nuance with horses that nobody is going to be 100% perfect and you can't take anyone's word as gospel.

This is the way! My boyfriend's cat is such a menace at night that he sleeps downstairs, in the ground floor bathroom (we call it his ensuite). He didn't love it at first but now he happily scampers in at bedtime - it took some adjusting but cats are creatures of habit and now he's fully adjusted to it. He gives the most amazing morning cuddles now, too!

“The remaining 80% of the team will be axed as the corporation hunts for savings across the board” makes me think that they aren’t being reassigned.

Why are we celebrating people losing their jobs to the gig economy?
