Another vote for Animed. They accept a scanned or photo of your prescription so its easy to upload. I get a prescription for 6 months from my vet and then tend to order about 40 at a time (months supply for me). I usually use there free delivery, only once has one of my orders been lost but in...

I have a pair of Heiniger Xperience and they are light, quiet and clip great. I use them for 2/3 horses per winter.

I'm not sure if this is applicable for what you want to measure but when feed reps (from many different companies) visit yards they often condition score a horse before weighing on a weigh bridge?

As mentioned above BE rules for 2017/2018 stipulate that numbers must be visible on both sides.

You wouldn't know my 20 year old boy has ben diagnosed with bushings for the last 5 years except he struggles to regulate his temperature. He seems to be unable to regulate his temperature as soon as his thicker winter coat comes in, I'm in the position I can fully clip and stable/rug...

Eileen Douglas Tackshop own brand breeches are great for short legs! I've got pairs I keep for competition and pairs for on the yard and they last really well.

My boy had a couple bouts of laminitis before we got him tested for cushings about 4 years ago when he was 16 (now 20). One bout he had a slight rotation in his pedal bone and corrective shoeing fixed this. Management is key for a horse prone to laminitis, control grazing, low sugar feeds...

Gleneagles still runs as a riding school.

I use thermatex leg wraps on my older boy in the winter when the temperature drops. I find this stops any fluid filling his legs and helps his movement in the morning. I also have no hesitation in giving him a sachet of danillon on days when he looks stiff to keep him happy. Is he still ridden...

La Mariposa do polo holidays, I haven't been myself but know a number of people who have through university polo. Them Bell, polo coach based in Scotland go every year with groups if you had wanted to train in the UK first.

I need this solution as well! My girth is too wide to fit a breastplate through but has a D ring. I stupidly bought a nice breast plate and didn't realise until I got home that the girth was too wide for it! A friend at the yard suggested a carabiner clip to me as well but have been searching to...

Can you give me some links to articles/information on balancer ingredients? I've used spillers for years and more recently moved to Topspec. Both of my horses have always looked great on them but if I can improve there feeding in any way I'm very interested to learn more.

I fed Gro'n'Win to my youngster from the age of 8 months to 3.5 years. She always looked fantastic! I only changed her when she started to do a little more work and I moved to Spillers Lite until she was 5yrs and now Topspec Comprehensive when she is rising 6yrs.

Have you had him long? When I first got my youngster when she was weaned from her mum she didn't understand the concept of a bucket, apples, carrots etc! Give small amounts and gradually increase when he starts to enjoy it. You could try placing it on the floor so he 'forages' as opposed to a...

Have you thought about testing for cushings? My old boys coat is the only symptom he displayed related to cushings and since getting his level of prascend correct his coat has got a nice shine to it again. He used to be on Spillers Senior but I've recently changed to Topspec Senior Lite and...
