It could be used to explain the latter stages however doesn't answer the paragraphs before and tension tthrough the hind quarters and resistance to the saddle. If we are thinking psychologically you could also look at the fact the horse is apparently very quiet - sometimes if a horse is in...

So if I was breaking a horse or handling an obstinate youngster but then took insurance out it would be fraud because we were having some behaviour difficulties that occasionally come with the territory but would hopefully be worked out. Or I committed fraud when I insured my tb who I know has...

Wholeheartedly agree but not everyone can afford to provide it. Insurance/putting a certain amount away each month or week should be factored into basic care and I think you should question whether you can afford to actually keep a horse if you can't. I would never advocate fraud but on...

I didnt think of it like that... just getting a horse the treatment it deserves. The horse hasnt had a diagnosis of any form therefore there's nothing to disclose at this moment in time. You could say about the back person but even then the horse got the all clear - as it reads. If a...

I think my first port of call if you do decide you want to give your horse 100% is get online/phone and get some insurance sorted. Then have an 'off the record' talk with your vet as to the next steps. Im no expert in any shape or form but it doesn't sound like there will be an easy or cheap...

Wbs are in lw at night and if it's due to rain during the day. The tb aka pansy is in a lw during the day and a lw stable with his lw turn out over the top at night. Ive upped his feed a tiny bit but can see hes dropped weight ever so slightly so will up his feed and look at putting some hay out...

Got mine in a few days. . But that was last year and got a fantastic deal on it :D

Juat thought I would say hi as your local to me and good luck finding grazing. Like said above its mostly arable so grazing is so hard to come by. Very lucky to have what I have. If I hear of any I'll pass you on any info :)

First they get stared out with vocal if say the youngsters get bolshy. I'll also square up to some and use arm gestures and if they do go to nip they will get an elbow. I like to keep my hands very much as a reward 'device' and the elbow is used to reprimand. I will say though all the...

Im not sure, I would say a little higher than wolfe teeth would be. I was just a little worried over the size difference but guess one may have moved into place a little sooner than the other.

What are people's experiences with them? I've got a 2yo filly who has got 2 both in line with molars, however one is larger than the other but both are opposite each other, not painful as such though she's not keen is you give them a real hard squeeze - I guess its the same as when babies are...

If you haven't got time now, will you have time after she comes back to carry on where your trainer left off? You may find you just end up at square one again and will have wasted a load of money on training her up. Peraonally I would leave it until you find more time and invest in lessons...

Just a quick question on diastemas.. I had my 3yo teeth looked at the other day by the vet ans he has a diastema though is between 2 baby teeth still so could just grow out (fingers crossed) he spoke about if it was a gap between the permanent ones we could open the gap up to prevent gunk...

Sounds too close a name not to be him as my guy was bred in CZ where D'Ablo stood/stands at stud. Thank you, even if I cant validate his bloodlines its still nice to know them shame theres nothing on the dam

Sympathy for the girl not nice and the one thing I dread ever happening to me. But has anyone seen the original advert for the horse? Or is all info from one side of the fence? Not saying the owners are right in any shape or form - just curious.
