If you're just starting out, you'll want a type of horse that is friendly and relaxed. The breed you pick should be fairly intelligent, meaning it can learn commands easily, and patient, meaning it won't get frustrated if you make mistakes. In addition, you may want a breed of horse that has a fairly smooth gait, making it easier to ride. No matter which breed you pick, get a horse that is at least 5 years old and has at least 1 year of professional training. Some good beginner breeds include the American Quarter Horse, Tennessee Walking Horse, Kentucky Mountain Horse, Shire Horse, Morgan, and Cleveland Bay. If you're under the age of 13 or less than 5.5ft (170cm) tall, you may have trouble mounting and controlling an adult horse. If this is the case for you, consider getting a pony instead. Ponies are just as fun as regular horses, but they're small enough to accommodate petite riders. Great pony breeds include the Pony of the Americas, Welsh Pony and Cob, and Shetland Pony. Keep in mind, though, that ponies can be stubborn and full of personality. Make sure to spend some time meeting different ponies and find one with a personality that matches yours. If you plan on riding your horse through long or uneven trails, you'll need an all-around breed that has a firm build as well as decent endurance, speed, and strength. In addition, your horse's body should be fairly proportional, that way it can keep its balance while moving. Seek out trail breeds like the American Quarter Horse, Morgan, Missouri Fox Trotter, Rocky Mountain Horse, and Kentucky Mountain Horse. Draft horses are large, cold-blooded steeds specifically bred to plow fields, haul carts, and perform other types of hard labor. If you need a working steed, draft horses are your best bet. Popular draft breeds include the Clydesdale, Shire Horse, Percheron, and Belgian Draft.

Summary: Choose a calm, intelligent breed if you're a beginner. Get a pony if you're young or short. Pick a balanced breed for trail riding. Get a draft horse for farm work and general labor.

There are a few symptoms you can look for to determine if you have high urobilinogen levels. Your urine will be a darker color while your feces will be lighter colored. Your skin and eyes may also have a yellowish tint to them. If you have high levels of urobilinogen, you should go see a doctor. Elevated urobilinogen indicates there is a problem with your liver. Many serious and potentially fatal liver diseases cause higher urobilinogen levels, so you should see your doctor immediately. For example, you may have liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, or hepatitis. If you believe you may have elevated urobilinogen levels, your doctor will recommend a urine test. You will be given a test stick that reacts to urobilinogen to determine if your levels are elevated. Then, if the test stick is positive, the doctor will perform a test to determine how much urobilinogen is in your urine. The doctor will probably also test your blood and liver function at the same time.

Summary: Look for dark urine and yellowish skin. Go see your doctor. Test your urine.

These can be simple, general words like beautiful, special, and unique, or more descriptive words that are specific to the person, like dark haired, smart, and bold. This list will help you brainstorm lyrics for the song. So, don't get too focused on working all of these words into a lyric. The idea is to start to build the vocabulary and lingo you're going to use for the song. Because you're likely writing the song to please the object of your affections or compliment her, focus on positive words and phrases that you think she would enjoy hearing in a song about her. This will help you determine which phrases have good implied rhythm and roll off your tongue easily. Put the phrases that sound good out loud into a list called "Possibles", as they have lyrical potential. Consider if there are any other phrases or words in your list that rhyme or almost rhyme. See if you can create a line or phrase that seems to answer an idea or question in your "Possibles" list. Aim for a general topic or phrase and don't worry about being overly creative or descriptive. The title will likely change as you compose the song, but a working title will help you focus on a main theme or idea.

Summary: Create a list of words that relate to the girl you are writing the song for. Arrange these words into phrases or statements and say them or sing them out loud. Try to work the "Possibles" list into longer lines or connecting lines. Create a working title for the song.

Depending on the laws where you live, you may need to apply for a license from your local government. To find out if you need a license, inquire with your local law enforcement or animal control office. In some cities or states, any breeder with more than 5 or 10 intact female dogs and who sells puppies will need a license. In many places, breeders of hunting dogs are exempt from licensing. A whelping box is a large box where your female dog will birth and nurse its puppies. Your whelping box should be 2 feet (0.61m) high, 4 feet (1.2m), and 4 feet (1.2m) wide. Your female lab and her puppies will spend the first three weeks after birth in the box. Afterwards, the puppies and mother dog will be able to move into a cage or similar enclosure. In addition to a whelping box, you'll need cages to house your grown dogs, juveniles, and any other dogs you plan to keep as breeding stock. Grown dogs will need cages that are 42 inches (107 cm) long and 30 inches (76 cm) high. Juveniles and younger dogs will fit in smaller cages, but make sure to move them into large cages when they are mature. The dogs should be able to easily stand up, turn around, and lay stretched out in their cages. If they can't, the cages are too small. Collect towels and sheets from friends or family. If you can't get enough, you can purchase new towels or sheets to use as bedding. Then, spread them out in your whelping box and cages. This will turn the whelping box and cage into a comfortable place for your dogs. . In addition to cages, your dogs -- mature and juvenile -- will need access to open space. As a result, you should create two or three at least 20 by 40 foot (6 by 12 m) fenced areas in your yard. This way, you'll be able to have dogs of different sexes and ages outside at one time. When your puppies are 6-8 weeks old, you need to take them to the vet for an examination and their first set of puppy shots. If you don't take them to the vet for vaccination, you could put them at risk of contracting dangerous illnesses. Ultimately, a responsible breeder will stay in touch with their vet throughout the breeding process.
Summary: Obtain a license if you need one. Purchase a large whelping box. Get cages to house your dogs. Use old towels and sheets as bedding. Fence in parts of your yard Take your puppies to the vet for vaccinations.
