Howdy! It's very nice to meet you, and welcome to the forum. I think you'll like it here. So far, no uppety know-it-alls that get online just for an arguement. Everyone is peaceful and polite... PS if you'd like a picture signature created for you, I can make them (like my Shadowfax signature below) just send me a pm if you'd like to have one made)

Hi Amanda,
Let us know how growing up with your paint works out, babies are so fun, challengeing but fun.

so far the biggest challenge is geting her to take a bath. that was very challenging it was not easy!!!

Hi, I'm new to this forum too. I breed, raise and show American Saddlebreds. The babies are the best. Welcome

Welcome! Whats your baby's name? I have raised my 2 yr old gelding since he was 1 month, if you have any questions I'd be happy to help! AQHABreeder is right, thankfully we're all pleasant and genuine horse lovers!

how do i get her to keep her attention focused she just wants to eat?

In your other post you said that she was very ribby, I'm sure she just wants to eat cuz shes hungry! If you want to work her, maybe take her somewhere there isn't a lot of grass? Mine is a chunky monkey and if I want to work him in grass we fight over who gets control of his head for a few minutes. I always win;D. When she goes to put her head down check her w/the lead. If she doesn't listen get a bit more firm on the tug. Eventually they normally get the idea.

Welcome to the forum, I'm sure you will love it here. Lots of great advice and friendly people.
