Well a few months ago I took him off all his feed and supplements to see what he was like on his own, once i had that to work with i contacted saracen and they advised a feed for him and the correct amount of hay etc, i then chose my supplements and since he has been on that diet he is alot...

Yes, I do agree and think it would be much better if I could find a field somewhere just for short term but I am struggling with that at the moment :( He is such a funny cookie and I'm not really understanding him yet but recently all we seem to do is argue so I just thought some time off for...

Ah perfect, I just wondered if it had the same benefits as them being out in a field 24/7 I'm thinking I'm just gonna not ride until spring, I'm gonne keep all his feed the same though so he doesn't loose weight or get cold.

Yes I agree. My previous horse was a TB who I lost to a whole host of problems including KS and navicular so I am no stranger to pain related behaviour. I wanted to try all other options before exploring that :/ just praying that some time off work and just me handling him will let us bond a bit...

He is 14 but about 4 in the head :/

Yeah he is he same although better with a rider who can get him working properly up to the bit which i cannot get yet. I have spoken to old owner who had him 7 years and to the lady who imported him from germany and apparently he has always been like this but does settle down. I bought him...

I am in a similar position. I have bought a 16.3hh warmblood in May and now for the first 2 weeks he was amazing, exactly what i had bought and then out of nowhere this monster appeared. spooking at absaloutley everything, napping, slamming the breaks on when being worked, rearing, planting...

I have a warmblood who I bought back in May, he very nervous, spooky, anxious and generally a bit mental. I have tried to work very hard with him over the last 6 months but havent really got anywhere so I want to turn him away for winter to give us both a bit of time off and then try again in...

Oh yes, I hadn't thought about them! Thank you! Xx

Hi, hi, yes I have. I used to loan a couple of horses there and I wanted to go somewhere different. Thanks for the suggestion though :)

I have a lovely 16.3hh gelding TB. I am looking for DIY livery for him local to Canterbury, wingham, littlebourne, that area. I know of yards this way but none that I feel are right. I would like it to have a school and stable and good grazing. Does anyone know of anything? Even small private...

How can the owner of the kicking horse complain about having a sectioned off bit because she will have to fill up its water, surely that is one of the main jobs when having a horse! I can quite see now why she wants you to feed this horse as well, clearly that's job done for her, horse watered...
