Farrier
I'm the offical Thoroughbred Disscussion
farrier! If there's anything wrong with your
horse's hoof or you want to get your horse (re)
shod, come to me. Horses need to come to the
farrier ever year (3 months). If your horse
needs an emergency farrier check, I will tell
you, but if you don't make an appointment with
me in a week, your horse will be taken away from
you and put up for sale. ~Farrier Taylor

Vet
I'm the Thoroughbred Disscussion vet. If your
horse needs a check-up, is sick, etc. then
please tell me by posting. I will schedule a
appointment ASAP. If your horse is in serious
pain, I will tell you. Schedule an appointment
with me ASAP when this happens. If you don't,
your horse will be taken away from you and put
up for sale. ~Dr. Danner

Trainer
I'm Thoroughbred Discussion's offical trainer!
If you want your horse to be trained, tell me
and I'll schedule a session with your horse. A
horse has to be 1 year old to start training. I
can only halter break your foal if it is less
than 1 year old. A session is one day but you
can make a fixed training schedule ahead of time
that fills a whole week or month. Training
involves halter breaking; the longe line;
wearing tack; being ridden at a walk, trot,
canter, and gallop; and finally breezing. I will
tell you how it goes each day. I can also clock
workouts for you. If you have a farm, you can
hire me and I will explain the training sessions
I had with your horse(s) at the end of each
week. ~Trainer Sarah

Good Luck Princess: Training, Vet, and Farrier
I would like my horse, Good Luck Princess, to be
worked on the lounge line (trainer), a check-up
(vet), and have her hoofs checked and get reshoed
(farrier).

Good Luck Princess: Training, Vet, and Farrier
Trainer: Your horse, Good Luck Princess, went
well on the lounge line. She was a little
trouble at first but I got her to do slow
gallops on the longe line. If she keeps
progressing at this rate, she should be able to
do a workout on the oval next week.<br>
Vet: I found no problems with your horse. She
was due for deworming and I did so.<br>
Farrier: Your horse's hooves are in perfect
condition. They shoud stay in this condition for
a while. I've fitted new shoes and checked for
cracks and any signs of lameness. Everything is
in order; she should have no problems on the
track.
