Posted on Sunday, Dec 12, 1999 - 10:50 am: From: catmTo: horseadvicesales@horseadvice.com Subject: thanks Date: Sun, 14 Nov 1999 01:21:08 +0800 thank you this looks like a really great source of information that will be invaluable will pass it on to friends. From: "Presslink" <preslink@iafrica.com> To: <roglesby@horseadvice.com> Subject: possible use of drawings Date: Wed, 10 Nov 1999 21:43:38 +0100 I am putting together an interactive multimedia for the South African National Equestrian Federation. This program will cover all aspects veterinary care of horses from lameness to skin diseases, stable management, shoeing, as well as the various FEI disciplines of riding. On the veterinary side we are fortunate to be working with Ondersterpoort (our veterinary college) but it would be so helpful if we could have use of some of your line drawings of the bone and muscle structures, also drawing of ageing a horse, which are excellent. We would be more than happy to credit your site and in fact we could put a hot link on the CD to the site, which has been a god send to me for checking information for this project. I really would appreciate any assistance in this project, its a fairly daunting task as I am sure will you appreciate. The ultimate aim of this project is to raise funds for the Federation, for the development of the sport, and hopefully prevent horses suffering unnecessarily through ignorance. Kind regards Barbara Sheat Date: Thu, 25 Nov 1999 11:34:36 -0800 From: ryckmaneq To: horseadvicesales@horseadvice.com Subject: Attn: Lisa Allen Hi, I am a current member of Horse Advice. I would like to request permission post your link for "Link of the Month" in December at Equine Showcase. I really like your site and want others to know about it as well. Thank you for your consideration. You can review my site Equine Showcase at https://www.equineshowcase.com Thanks, Daina Equine Showcase From: horseymarcy To: horseadvice@horseadvice.com I enjoy the newsletters/website very much. I live on an isolated ranch, and being able to look things up when I have a question is really nice. I have definitely saved more than the yearly subscription fee, plus learned so much to boot! And, if it's necessary to go to the vet, it helps me to ask better questions concerning whatever condition might we might be faced with at that moment. Marcy |

Posted on Tuesday, Aug 10, 1999 - 7:25 am: Sent to us from Chris on Wednesday, June 23, 1999 -I threw away an ad the other night for a new periodical devoted to horse health - my thoughts were, "Ha. I don't need this, I have the Horseman's Advisor when I need it. And it is much cheaper!" So, as I don't subscribe to some of these magazines, I both save money and do a little for the environment. Thanks, again. |

Posted on Sunday, Aug 13, 2000 - 10:44 am: This site seems to be a goldmine of information and interesting discussions. Seems like I can find most anything I'll need here to be able to talk intelligently with a vet or get what the vet actually says interpreted. |

Posted on Sunday, Jun 20, 1999 - 10:56 am: Sent to us from Carolyn, June 20, 1999I've followed the Advisor for a few years (don't remember exactly), anyway I think it is absolutely fantastic. I just wished I could spend more time here. Thanks so much for all the knowledge. I learned more info here than my $80.00 horsebooks. They're all right but this site is better. Thanks again.

Posted on Saturday, Apr 10, 1999 - 1:00 pm: Not all the mail has been positive, at least not initially. Here was a discussion between DrO and a disgruntled visitor:From: Ken Wigal Subject: Membership Requirement To: roglesby I am very unhappy that one must now pay a subscription fee to acess information at the Horesman's Advisor web site. I see no alternative but to remove all my links to the H. A web site. Good day.-- Yours truly, Ken Wigal To: Ken Wigal Subject: Re: Membership Requirement Date sent: Wed, 3 Mar 1999 06:51:44 -0500 Hello Ken, We are sorry you feel the way you do. We have been providing The Advisor free for almost 5 years now. As it grew it has required more and more time and money to maintain, much less get new information into it. I either had to find some way to generate income and hire help or shut it down. I was not going to have a substandard site with questionable or out of date content. "The Advisor" today, is the result of close to 10,000 hours of work and the input of hundreds of experienced horsemen. We try to cover all topics of horse health bringing you the latest research filtered through my experiences as a equine veterinarian, equine breeder, trainer and rider. And we try to do it every day. If that is not worth one dollar and sixty seven cents a month to a horse owner, well, I have no business on the Web. It really comes down to I have to feed and clothe my family too. Robert N. Oglesby DVM From: Ken Wigal Subject: Re: Membership Requirement To:"Robert N. Oglesby DVM" Hello Robert, I have to apologize to you. I didn't take into consideration the fact that maintaining a good web site requires the expense of not just time but also of money, and a site such as yours requires more man hours than any one person can expend. And you subscription fee is not unreasonable. You still have the best equestrian site on the web and I'll stick with you. You deserve to see the fruits of your labors. I'll be subscribing today. Thank you. Ken Wigal To: Ken Wigal Subject: Re: Membership Requirement Date sent: Thu, 4 Mar 1999 06:09:38 -0500 Thanks for the kudos and we are delighted to have you. Robert N. Oglesby DVM |
