    Ordering from Equus. Beware.

    personally i found them brilliant, order stuff for a show and i messaged to ask if they would post it asap and they did and it arrived within 3 days, but reading the comments I was one of the lucky ones...

    PS of Sweden customs charges

    If the total amount paid (including postage) is less than £135 there are no fees but if over there are quite large fees

    Should there be a weight limit for people at shows (and if so, what and how?!)

    Well this thread has me quite worried as I’m just about to buy a 17hh Irish sports horse. and well I am currently 16 stone because covid and other life issues got in the way. I hate to admit I have gained 4 stone in the last 2 years. I’ve already been to see the horse once, and will be going...

    Selling horse stuff

    I would avoid eBay, fees are so high (12% I believe!?)

    Magnetic products

    I honestly think they’re just a bit of a gimmick. I’ve used to use magnetic rugs and boots etc and never noticed any difference. There’s an article on it here that i think is interesting and I think explains it well https://www.livescience.com/40174-magnetic-therapy.html Research is still 50/50...

    I’m not sure what to think….

    Maybe that she should’ve given MT the same chance she had to learn from her bad choices… regardless of if MT is an Olympic trainer he made a bad judgement he’s only human. As I’ve said I’ve no reason to believe it’s common practice seeing as some of the comments say how kind he was at their...

    Horse prices

    yes I agree I think prices should rise but they’ve gone insane. In lockdown I saw a al round maxi cob no competition record but jumps up to 1m for £25k.. must have sold pretty quick as the advert was gone within a week Also sadly seen a fair few dragging their crippled or lame horses out the...

    Horse prices

    tjat was exactly my question- where have all these people come from? apparently a mixture of lockdown therefore having more time (and money saved from not going on holidays/ out drinking etc) and brexit where import from Ireland and Europe is tougher. I do think prices will drop, maybe...

    I’m not sure what to think….

    it doesn’t say what you’re insinuating. I don’t know how many times I’ve said what he did was wrong.

    I’m not sure what to think….

    But before you put something up for laughs… just think about what effects it might have? I’m not sure she’s going to be finding it funny now? I agree with you it was wrong but the whole argument is whether or not it was handled correctly and in my opinion it was not.

    I’m not sure what to think….

    im saying the girl put it up for laughs, not that ME personally thinks it’s funny, maybe she didn’t think there was anything to handle I don’t know. You’re just completely missing the point- that it’s gotten way out of hand that it didn’t need to be put on social media first. How do you know he...

    I’m not sure what to think….

    It should’ve been handled differently, before putting on social media. He made a mistake and now he’s getting death threats, people are boycotting his brand, he’s been suspended from his career… for what in my opinion was a mistake in using a bad training technique. Because we have no other...

    I’m not sure what to think….

    What about the horse? He was jumping round BE100 and schooling in the water a few days later… I agree in the video he was wayyyy harsh with his approach, didn’t give the horse a chance to look but it’s been done now, I think MT should’ve had the chance to be aware of his actions and rectify his...

    I’m not sure what to think….

    I mean like I say I don’t think this is common practice in his clinics, there was this one incidence… if she’d have said I think he would’ve understood not to do it to anyone again
  15. B

    I’m not sure what to think….

    Probably yeah! He’d have realised that people don’t like that. As I said it’s clearly not how he commonly trains other people.. I’ve no idea what he does at home but we don’t have proof of that. He made a mistake, and give the man a chance? How do you know? If this is something he is carrying on...
