Has anyone used this template? We are hoping to loan a horse and have been sent a version of it to sign. The BHS loan template says: 8.2 “If the Borrower fails to insure the Horse and its effects the Borrower assumes full liability for any loss or damage, including any third party...

Thanks for this - Woah, that's a lot! Are you able to tell me the name? Or private message me if poss? I'd love to look it up!

Thanks guys, these replies are super helpful, glad I ran it past you! We had a few enquiries about letting dogs exercise in there over the years, but I fear like SDMabel says, there are too many pitfalls, i think I'm wise to steer clear :)

Does anyone here know of equestrian arenas that run dog exercise sessions? We're contemplating running before or after work dog exercise sessions at our indoor. Only thing is, it would have to be for groups of dogs to make the costs work, as we need to hire it for £20 for 30 minutes to make it...

Does anyone use purebed? I currently use deep litter shavings but the cost is now so extortionate I need to think more carefully!

All noted, thank you so much! 🙏

Thank you that’s really interesting, When you say low profile, I’m guessing you literally mean a narrower girth, is that right? Or shaped differently? He’s only 5 so not in a huge amount of work yet, I’m still figuring him out (he’s Andalusian)

My grey gelding has developed small bare patches on both sides next to his armpit, where his dressage girth goes. (I use a nice leather padded, shaped,Albion girth.) Can anyone make suggestions so I can stop it getting worse? I’m not really keen on sheepskin covers as I worry they pinch, but I...

This might be a stupid question, but are there any showing classes for unregistered PRE horses?

Has anyone got experience of visiting Royal Windsor as a or with a disabled person? My friend had a stroke last year and uses a wheelchair, we haven't done a trip like this before together so I'm keen to hear any experiences/advice if you have any We have a blue badge for parking and a disabled...

Can any instructors tell me approximately what they currently pay for their Freelance instructor's insurance premium? I'd like to get some quotes for a new policy as I'm doing some planning, but can't as it's Saturday, and it would be super helpful to get a rough idea of how much to budget for...

Thos of you that use Neue Schule/Sprenger type bits, what do you use to polish them up? I used to have some great stuff but can't find it on sale anymore. I tried Diamond Paste but found it pretty rubbish!

I used to have an amazing tin of polish that I used on my sprenger/neue Schule bits, that bought them up sparkling in an instant. I threw away an old tin, but now I can’t find any new stuff, but also cantremember what it was called! it was a million times better than the Sprenger diamond...

I am so fed up with haynets breaking! Recently I bought supposedly ‘strong’ nets from KM elite and Lemieux…and they’ve both broken I have some I bought 15 years ago that have survived perfectly, so I know such things must exist somewhere?! Can anyone recommend a brilliant super strong Haynet...
