We are "horse people"- you don't have to understand us... We have no problem eating a sandwich directly after mucking stalls. We know why a thermometer has to h...ave a string attached to the end and lights and cords have to be covered or kept out of reach. We know that all external medicine is either waterproof, blue or yellow. We are not welcome in laundromats. We can lower or raise our voice instantly by 5 octaves to shout at the dog who has decided to stalk a horse or make a snack of horse apples. We would sooner quit a relationship than give up our horse. We talk to our truck to make it up the hill and believe that a new truck is a luxury car. We know more about our horse's diet than our own. We buy grain and hay before buying our own food. It’s common to see us wearing barn clothes in public, and we wear them with pride...mud and all. We know that mucking a stall is the best cure for depression. We get along better with most animals than people. We are quick to lend a hand in a crisis and we will always make time for a friend. We know that only horse people understand this special community we're a part of, and know we share something special. A hand shake is our bond. Copy and Re-post if you are one of us..... share a picture See more

"Behind Schedule" - This was my fifteenth action stagecoach painting. I thought it might be interesting this time to use the leg action of the obvious three ho...rses and the jackrabbit to illustrate the basic four positions of a four-legged animal which is running full-blast. No road-kill in this painting. ( I Love action paintings!) See more

Double T Equine would like to congratulate Carson Hillman, Nicole Prince and Jason Prince on their basic equine first aid certification. A great day!

Non-Horse riding and those that do not haul heavy weighted vehicles. You need to SEE THIS THE MOST AND RESHARE. The avg horse trailer and rig is nearly 22k lbs.... Plus live weight does not stop smoothly. It surges with a forward and backward motion. Making the combination of weight a battering-ram with unyielding force. *********************************** In this incident, the young driver of 16 hydroplaned, ending up in the front of this rig. Resulting in the accident you see. An unfortunate accident. Updated 10/8: have news confirming the 16 yr old died on the scene. A tragic accident takes life at an early age and leaves a family in mourning. My condolences to the family. No news other than the driver of the truck is physically okay. However, this incident will leave deep unseen scars and trauma. I am to understand there's a GoFundMe page for youth, Corbin Crowder. "https://www.gofundme.com/in-loving-memory-of-corbin-crowder". The sponsor list is not a family member. Should you chose to donate, it's up to you to do your due diligence on the validity of the posting. ********************************** The photo indicates the damage the weight of these rigs brings to bear. Just like a big rig, the distance we try to maintain in front of us is to allow for proper breaking distance. Our speed is to keep those in the truck, trailer, and around us safe. DO NOT DROP IN FRONT AND HIT THE BREAKS, WE WILL END UP IN YOUR PASSAGE COMPARTMENT DO NOT TAILGATE, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SEE YOU. DO NOT PULLOUT IN FRONT, YOU MAY GET T-BONED DO NOT PASS THEN CROSS IN FRONT TO EXIT HWY. RELAX AND WAIT THE EXTRA 30 SECONDS.
