township being dumped and has the authority to levy charges Current offenders are to be notified they were identified By Jennifer Barr QUESTION I would like to know 11 you think It good Idea to take one two weeks at a dude ranch or are most of places a waste of money and time Could yon recommend one that Is popular and wellrun This lady had previously expressed a desire to leam to tide and asked for names of riding schools Answer If you wish to have a holiday seeing the countryside from the back of a horse a good dude ranch might be fun If however you really want to learn to ride save your money and take proper riding lessons At a dude ranch you will be taken for trail rides on a horse that will follow the string whether you ride well or are merely a passenger There is danger of your developing hardtobreak by riding without super vision at first Once you have started to sit wrongly In the saddle It is much harder to correct your seat than If you had learned properly the first time you sat on a horse I would suggest taking lessons from a good riding school this summer and going to a dude ranch next summer if you still want to QUESTION I a fifteen year old boy and have a bay mare and her twoyearold colt We keepthemonourtarmandl plan to train the colt for trail riding The other day I went to the bam to put the two horses out for exercise I was stunned to find the colt had his hind leg stretched out behind him and be t walk I thought his leg was broken I put the mare before I called the vet but the colt jumped around In his stall when be saw his mother going out Suddenly his leg was right and be went trotting out normally What could have caused this Answer This sounds like a dis location of the patella which Is more common in immature horses than older ones The stifle Joint the point where the hind leg enters the abdomen corresponds with our knee cap This can shoot out of place causing symptoms similar to those you describe We once had a young stallion who put his leg out three times It scared the wits out of me the first time I saw it As you have discovered the joint can be replaced by forcing the animal to move suddenly It can also be pushed back into manually by raising the a hind leg to the front end manipulating the Joint However if it happens again you would be wise to call your vet Amateurish handling of dis locations can result in torn lig aments There is an operation that can be done to shorten the ligaments of a really troublesome patella Don forget the next T horse show at Dales farm Just north of on June 11 at 30 Last month turnout
