We just hollow out a hot dog half way and squirt the medicine in, and replug with the leftover hotdog piece. I don't like hotdogs so I don't mind the spoiling since she would otherwise be tormented by having someone hold her still lol

They gave us liquid medication for her for that reason since we asked about it as an option. We used too toss pill down her throat but shes too old for all that now, shes supper finicky, worse then the pythons I would say

Omg that would be horrible lol. I imagine peanut butter would work well too, but the glob has to be pretty big. Like kind of absurdly big lol

He has fleas as well, just shows you how much people don't care to put them up for adoption or something, honestly I bet if we took him he wouldn't even notice, he's at our house for about 15 hours per day.

That’s where the cream cheese was handy, its so sticky that its hard to just eat around it and if you kind of swipe it onto the roof of their mouth they naturally lick it all back and down goes the drugs lol

We try not to give dairy since it upsets her stomach, last thing we need is a blow out ontop of the unpleasant indoor floor wetting 😭🤣

My dog used to be horrible with taking pills. He was one of those that would eat the food and spit out the pill no mater what you put it in, now I can just toss it in with his kibble and he doesn't know the difference lol

My neighbor has a dog, he's a young lab, I'd say about 18 months at the most and the guy is in the military so he's never home and the pup doesn't get any attention. Besides the fact that WE give him food and affection.

My friend showed me a trick of sticking the pill into a large glob of cream cheese. Works well on my two dogs

Well, it took lacing a hotdog and lots of encouragement but she took the meds, now how long until she sees through the deceit l

Hey, so I'm training my QH mare to do barrels, and I was wondering if anyone had any good exercises/drills or just tips on general, and thanks in advance for all that help!

Put in that flatwork! Avoid drilling her on the barrels- if you do the same pattern too much, she'll start to anticipate them.
Do the flatwork, get her moving off your seat and legs. Get a good rollback on her, and then make it even better.
Lots of transitions- walk to halt to canter to halt to trot to walk to canter, etc., will get her sitting on her hind end, which is where the power comes from around barrels and on the stretch.
On the barrels, do practices where they're super close together, and practices where they're very far apart. Every arena you compete at will have different sizes. If you only school the same size pattern at home, she'll get thrown off when you're competing somewhere different. And ride on different terrain! Do the trail rides and keep her brain fresh, but it also gets her moving and used to more than one footing type which is great for their stability and also for their surefootedness in arenas with different footing!

I agree with everything FirstLight said, but once you have a solid start on her and want to start on barrels do a lot of slow work before you add in speed

Make sure you have a solid start and honestly work through the pattern at a slower speed. Work on how close she gets to the barrel and taking the shortest path to the next one. One drill that really helped my gelding and I was a drill of doing three big circles at a walk then a trot then a canter around the barrel and then three small circles around the barrel the same way. It helps you and the horse. Also I hardly ever breezed the pattern, maybe just two days or so before the events I would go to, everything else was done at a trot or canter. Also lots of conditioning! That will save you, you want your horse to be in the best shape you can get them into!
