Re: [RC] ginger for horses? - Rusty - Kathy MayedaI think the worst dis-service the show arena has done for the horse is to breed for high over-reactivity. My one horse does not need ginger up his tail, nor cocaine to look wild-eyed and tail-flagged - he's like that naturally a lot of the time, and I cant' stand it when he's like that! And he's bred for show-ring. I spend a lot of time and money for him to act and look like a well-behaved calm horse. I like my older horse's breeding better - they are innately smart and don't lose their cookies. K.

Phoney baloney and just plain cruel in my opinion. ~C OK, so I went to the opening day of the Scottsdale Arabian show today. It was late in the day and most of the activity was over but the shopping, I proceeded to the Schinders tent to do some exploring. Standing in the row of rub, lotions and lineament I saw a small jar and the cover said "Ginger rub". Knowing ginger is an amazing natural product I was curious to the use for it on horses, I picked it up and read - Use for tail carriage - apply to rectum ten minutes before show time! OMG! I will never understand this world of horse showing and the poor unsuspecting horse with ginger on his a*^! I can't even get a crupper under my guys tail, lol!
