Have you all heard of the Jerusulem Donkey or Burro? It has a cross on its back, and no two are alike. My pastor was talking about it a month or so ago. I have not seen them but they say it does have the cross on its back. Little Burro’s are so beautiful. Thought this was so interesting at Christmas time.

BLOODHORSE: 12 CHRISTMAS WISHES FOR HORSES, OWNERS FROM VET’S
12 Christmas Wishes for Horses, Owners from Veterinary Experts
By Stacey Oke, DVM, MSc
Updated: Tuesday, December 25, 2012 8:00 AM
Posted: Tuesday, December 25, 2012 8:00 AM
Originally published on TheHorse.com
Veterinarians work with horse owners to provide the best possible care from snip to tail. This holiday season, consider the following “wishes” your equine experts made to help maximize your horses’ quality of life.
12 Drummers Drumming: Cardiology
“I wish for all owners to be able to take their horses heart rates and know their horse’s range of normal rates,” said Kim McGurrin, DVM, DVSc, Dipl. ACVIM, from the Ontario Veterinary College, University of Guelph, Canada.
All horse owners are encouraged to own and know how to use a stethoscope to assess their horse’s heart rates as needed. Horses with colic, injuries, lameness, laminitis, chronic pain, and even foaling can have elevated heart rates. The normal heart rate for an average adult horse can range from 28-44 beats per minute. Knowing your horse’s “normal” heart rate is an asset in advance of an emergency.
11 Pipers Piping: Respiration
Ed Robinson, BVetMed, MRCVS, PhD, the Matilda R. Wilson Chair in Large Animal Clinical Sciences at the Michigan State University (MSU) College of Veterinary Medicine and the director of the Equine Pulmonary Research Laboratory, has wished for years, as reported in numerous articles on TheHorse.com, that owners would “… focus on the horse’s breathing zone–a 2-foot sphere around the horse’s nose from where he draws his breath.”
10 Lords-a-Leaping: Lameness (Skeletal)
Mike W. Ross, DVM, Dipl. ACVS, a professor of surgery at the University of Pennsylvania’s school of veterinary medicine said, “I wish horse owners would think about alternatives to longeing. Constant turning places forces of torsion on the distal limbs, exacerbates lameness, and may potentially lead to chronic arthritic conditions later in life.”
He philosophized, “Each step while turning is worth two steps in a straightaway.” Alternatives to longeing include long reining, in-hand work, and even “advance-retreat” work with a loose horse (through obstacle courses, etc). All of these techniques will help keep you fit as well.
9 Ladies Dancing: Lameness (Soft Tissue)
“Know what your horse’s legs look and feel like to best detect tendon or ligament injury,” wished Sue Dyson, MA, VetMB, PhD, DEO, FRCVS, head of clinical orthopedics at the Animal Health Trust in Newmarket, England.
Dyson relayed an additional wish in the form of a haiku:
Well-meaning owners
bandage. Be warned! Don’t apply
bandage/boot too tight.
8 Maids-a-Milking: Neonatology
During this year’s American Association of Equine Practitioners’ Annual Convention, Ahmed Tibary, DMV, PhD, Dipl. ACT, from Washington State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, wished for breeders “to call for veterinary examinations … within 12 to 18 hours of foaling, even when everything seems to be normal.”
7 Swans-a-Swimming: Physical Therapy
“I wish that owners would use more cross training to keep their horses fit and interested in work,” revealed Hilary Clayton, BVMS, PhD, MRCVS, the Mary Anne McPhail Dressage Chair in Equine Sports Medicine at MSU and Vice President of the American College of Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation.
Cross training refers to a change of scenery or routine to avoid boredom. If you have a dressage horse, for instance, get out of the arena, go for a hack, try some hill work–anything that will keep him fit and interested.
6 Geese-a-Laying: Reproduction
“I wish horse owners were more aware of different ways to prevent abortion/miscarriage due common causes such as placentitis,” said Kristina Lu, VMD, Dipl. ACT, an associate at Hagyard Equine Medical Institute in Lexington, Ky.
Lu also wished for expedited research in this field.
5 Gold Rings: Farriery
To help keep horses’ toes in gleaming good health, focus some attention on the hoof walls. “Help maintain good-quality (hoof) walls. Apply a water-repelling hoof dressing such as pine tar before each bath,” advised Scott Morrison, DVM, of Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital in Lexington, Ky.
4 Calling Birds: Welfare
James Yeates, BVSc, BSc, DWEL, PhD, MRCVS, chief veterinary officer and head of companion animals at the The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, in the United Kingdom, said, “We (at the RSPCA) wish that all owners will give their horses the right company, environment, diet, and health care.” He also wished that horse owners would call their local humane society if other horse owners are not meeting their horses’ needs.
3 French Hens: Nutrition
While a french hen might appreciate a bed of soft hay, most horses appreciate forage as the main portion of their diet. Attention to diet is a major aspect of horse ownership, and equine nutritionist Kathleen Crandell, PhD, from Kentucky Equine Research wished “for owners to understand how important forage is in their horse’s diet, and that the diet should be balanced relative to the forage.”
2 Turtle Doves: Internal Medicine
Published reports indicate doves are hardy birds and rarely fall ill if they’re properly cared for. On the other hand, horses can develop medical problems even if owners spare no expense in their care. Simply wishing for it won’t keep your horse healthy. It takes regular veterinary examinations, vaccinations, good nutrition, and, of course, a little TLC.
“I wish for all horses to have a warm and dry winter … and a regular mash, topped with a carrot (on Christmas),” shared Nicola Pusterla, DVM, PhD, Dipl. ACVIM, associate professor at the University of California, Davis, School of Veterinary Medicine.
And a Partridge in a Pear Tree: Parasitology
“I wish all owners and veterinarians would embrace change,” said Craig Reinemeyer, DVM, PhD, from East Tennessee Clinical Research Inc., in Rockwood, Tenn. Referring not only to changing deworming protocols, Reinemeyer reminds everyone of a famous quote from Charles Darwin, “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.”

JUST A FEW QUOTES FOR THE DAY:
Without feelings of respect and consideration,
what is there is distinguish humans from animals???
(Confucius)
Beware of women who cry.
It is true that women who cry
are sensitive to and in touch with feelings,
but only the feelings they tend to be
sensitive to and in touch with
ARE THEIR OWN. (Nora Ephron)
Consider the rights of others before
YOUR OWN feelings, and the feelings
of others before your YOUR OWN
rights. (John Wooden)
MERRY CHRISTMAS

Kathy R.
Dear Sheena: We’re well into Boxing Day Downunder – and the heat (except for places in the west) has just gone (but not replaced with your rain). We had to pull on a jumper here for Christmas Day, and it’s the same today. would be disappointing for those overseas visitors expecting a hot one in Sydney, for example. And agree with you on the terrific messages Sign posts. Especially the prayers. Hugs, KathyR.
Max
Kathy. To North Americans, a jumper is a sleeveless dress. I think that you are mentioning putting on what we would call a sweater for cool weather? Being able to go out in a sweater would be nice. I’m visiting Calgary for Christmas and its -30. Tons of snow too.
Signofthetimes
Oh yes, Kathy R, Max and Sheena,
We wear jumpers, too, usually with blouses or Tee Shirts underneath.
I must say I am watching, too much grand prix jumping
Today, for a minute I was thinking you were talking about a warmblood
Horse jumper, Ha Ha Ha !!!!
Calgary, one of my most favorite places to snow ski, Lake Louise and
Stayed at the Banff springs hotel, beautiful place !!!! Enjoy the snow !!!
Kathy R.
Dear Max (and others): Sorry for the poor “translation” – yes, I meant a sweater. Reminds me, when President Obama visited Canberra, he was quite taken with the term “ear bashing” – thought it would be useful with his dealings with Congress. Just love the way different nations have folksy little words that are unique.
signofthetimes; President of the Texas RN Club; RN philosopher
Oh got it, Kathy R,
Believe it or not we have sweaters in Houston,
don’t get to wear them much. This season lovely
holiday sweaters.
Love all the different inuendo’s in our language,
and “ear bashing is a great one. Also whispering.
Ingrid Arnone.
Dear Zenny,
You still are my number one! Love you Ingrid.
Kathy R.
Dear Keta: Did you know that your mate Bensley’s nickname is Hoss (he’s a large fellow). He is also a part owner of a brown filly called Hoss Amor. She was named by listeners of the Skysportsradio station. She’s a 3 year old brown, trained by John O’Shea, one of our top blokes, and is sired by General Nediym, from With Love. So far the biggest problem she has (according to the trainer) is Bensley giving advice on how she should be trained! Cheers, KathyR.
Keta
Kathy R
Did not know that.
Add another to the watch list.
Tomorrow is another mad shopping day-almost as bad as “Black Friday” the
day after our Thanksgiving. Lots of discounts.
Am I going shopping? Not in the big department stores.
Sadly, I find that many people shopping during the holidays leave their niceness home.
It is sweater weather in Phoenix-daytime temp in high 60’s (Fahrenheit not Celsius )

Jack Klugman loved horse racing
By Eric Sondheimer The LA Times December 24, 2012, 4:35 p.m
LA Times Note: This post has been corrected. See note at the bottom for details.
.
Jack Klugman wasn’t just known for his acting ability. He loved horses and horse racing.
His death Monday in Woodland Hills at the age of 90 comes after he visited the race track several months ago, according to trainer Barry Abrams, who co-owns three horses with Klugman. They are offspring of Klugman’s broodmare, Sci Fi Kin, who was sold in January.
“He just loved being at the track,” Abrams said. “He comes, makes bets and sits all day. That was his life — horses and show business.”
Klugman used to own a 40-acre ranch in Temecula.
In 1980, Jaklin Klugman, owned by Klugman, finished third in the Kentucky Derby behind Genuine Risk and Rumbo.
“The most wonderful time in the world,” Klugman said in a 1997 ESPN.com interview.
[For the record, 7 a.m. Dec. 25: An earlier version of this post incorrectly stated that Klugman died in Northridge. He died in Woodland Hills.]

Happy Holidays,
I really liked “The Odd Couple”, Lemon & Mathau and then the tv show with Klugman & Randall. They were a hoot. 90 yrs old, that’s pretty good. He lived a good life then & he was able to spend it with horses, too. That’s pretty good.
