😢 this is very sad, but well done for listening to her. Hope it’s better news when you get her checked out.

Similar situation to my mare. We had 3 diagnosis over 3 years, ks, hocks and navicular. She wasn’t as bad as yours sound though and she did come good each time but after the 3rd one I felt it was enough. I was drained, she’d gone through 3 rounds of rehab and treatment. I turned her away for...

😞

Anyone ever been in person? Wondering if I should add to a bucket list item !

You and she have had to deal with a lot and you’ve gone above and beyond. I hope this works out for you. As you’ve mentioned it (I didn’t want to be insensitive!) if you get to a point where you don’t think you or she can manage, retirement or PTS are valid choices imo. I had a lovely young...

If it were me I’d probably chuck a load more money at investigating and seeing if I could get her right with treatment, rehab, rest, or whatever was needed as she seems young and talented and you like her. But that’s not everyone’s choice and depends on your circumstances. And may not fix...

Great news these successes are big deals !

We did a thing! Xc lesson on Finn. First time he’s done xc for probably 2 years now. And the first time for me for maybe a year. I was expecting Captain Sensible as he’s generally a very easy boy, and he was good apart from the first 10 mins or so where he was very tense and nappy...

Actually have horsey plans! Off to Milton Keynes for a play around the xc with the big grey fella, Finn. He hasn’t been out to a party for so long as he had time off for melanoma surgery, and rehab, and then I’ve been taking it very slow with him to see what’s he’s happy doing. I’m hoping he...

Lovely! “Wildly less skilful” is clearly relative as you always look very competent! Can’t believe he’s 17, where does the time go.

I’m in a similar situation. Not quite sure if I will jump one of mine again but kinda feel like I will want to. And trying to be ok if I don’t ever want to. Bit all over the place. I’ve been doing some pole work with an instructor to work through some confidence issues that impact my riding...

I hadn’t realised that red-1, that’s very sad, but I’m glad to hear there are good times still to be enjoyed 👍

I won’t go on to that page but I do hope those who are affected by this lodge a formal complaint.

I know, it does that for me, German and Chinese, but it takes you to the English version of Facebook so I think it’s ok 🤷‍♀️ or you might be able to search for it from your FB page rather than the link if you’re not sure. Always good to be careful!

What a stunning round! You could win a jumping style award for that round !! Loved his pricked ears all the way around.
