Appaloosa Stallion

Photos?

We used it when we were showing our Appaloosa Stallion at horse showes.

Yep ... all of a sudden all those pretty ladies STINK!

I baited you, didn't I? Well, dogs have a highly developed sense of smell, we all know that. And sometimes they get into things they shouldn't. But spanking isn't the answer, and nor is yelling. And you can't always keep everything up out of reach. So, repellants can work well. Does your puppy chew your slippers or your tennis shoes? How about furniture legs, oh no! Or just about anything else you don't want him to chew. Put a little dab of Vicks on it and watch him decide that, gag, THAT's no longer a yummy chew toy! The best use I ever found for it was a disabled lady's oxygen line! A little dab every foot or so cured him forever.

So no, this doesn't help with basic obedience, but it can help with a common behavior problem.

It's also a "Gee, this houseplant would make a good litterbox" deterrent!

Yes, works on cats too.

How do you use it on show horses? Oh wait ... in stallions' nostrils, right? So they can't smell the mares?

Oh yeah, Mom had the brown one in the living room along with the Colonial Furniture decor.

My grandmother braided wool strips into rugs. 1960's and 70's.
