Before & After Sweet Itch Pictures (WOW!)

(definitely click to enlarge the picture!)

I know you guys are probably tired of the sweet itch updates, but I had to share a before and after picture. The second picture is after five Neem oil treatments (six days because I skipped a day)! I know the angle is different, but wow what a difference!! I'm so happy! :D

That's an amazing difference in only five days!!! So glad you've got something that works for him and hopefully it will be pretty cost effective too :)

I am so glad he is feeling better. I have allergies and get itchy. I can't imagine how bad it would be if I couldn't relief.

OH, that is just nasty! I wanted to forward a comment I left on my post regarding bareback pads:

Spend the money on a Parelli bareback pad!! The quality is amazing and it will last for years and years. Ask for an early Christmas present! It is about $220 if you are a member. http://shop.parellinaturalhorsetraining.com/product.jsf?catId=23

You will never be able to make this pad! I have watched my girls become better riders in just two weeks using this pad. I find it comfortable myself as I love riding bareback and I think it is much more comfortable for the horse than riding bareback. (and safer). Just my thoughts.

Sire: Unknown (Standard Donkey)
Dam: Unknown (Standard Donkey)
Breed: Standard Donkey
DOB: 2007

Weight: N/A
Color: Gray (what do you call the donkey color??)

Date Aquired: My dad rescued/bought him shortly before I brought Chrome home, but he gave him to us on 1-18-10.

Likes: Treats, forehead scratches, his buddies and braying early in the morning.
Dislikes: Being handled at all (his first three years were spent in someone's backyard never being touched), sudden movements and sometimes his bratty pasture mate Chrome. :D

I'm in my thirties, live in the USA and I love horses (obviously). I've been obsessed with Friesians (that's Chrome's purebred Friesian sire in the above picture) for over ten years. I started riding horses when I was five and always had horses from then until 2007 when I found myself without one. I wanted a Friesian, but the budget wouldn't allow for it so I started looking at crosses. I found Chrome (Friesian/Arabian) and I haven't regretted it for a second. I bought him as a five month old weanling in 2009 and I've done all of his training myself. The blog is about our continued journey together as I attempt to make him my dream all around horse who can do anything from dressage, competitive trail riding, driving, mounted archery, working equitation and anything else we want to try. He's still very green and we obviously have a long way to go, but you're welcome to follow along on our journey. I also love dogs, art, photography, writing, reading, fishing, biking, camping, archery and many other things. You can learn more about me on my About Me page, my Equestrian Bucket List page and my FAQ page.
