    Help needed on lunging!

    I've heard about the plastic bag thing but I'm a tad reluctant to use it as I don't want to encourage him to run away from it in fear and then if I was on a hack and a plastic bag is flapping around he would start spooking at it. I have tried all sorts of whips, cracked them, flicked him on...

    Help needed on lunging

    Help needed on lunging!

    I have a 10 year old Anglo Arab gelding and no matter what I try I cannot get him moving forward on the lunge without having to chase him, shout and do all sorts of flicks and swooshes with the whip. By the time we've been lunging for 20 minutes I'm practically laying out flat in the middle of...

    Should I sell??

    Hi I also have chronic fatigue syndrome, I am doing well at the moment and manage to do all my jobs at the yard and ride everyday but when I first discovered I had it, about 3 1/2 years ago, I had a horse on part loan which I gave up. I was out of horses for a year and then I got my own, I...

    Really mad stuff you've done with horses....

    About 4-5 years ago I got my first loan, I'd never hacked out apart from with riding school so was all very boring, when the other girls on the yard took me out we would go galloping any bit of grass we could find, most of them had busy main roads at the end and my horse was very hard to stop...

    Hope my boys going to be ok :( (also in vetinary)

    Had to call the vet today who is coming out tomorrow afternoon. 2 weeks ago my 9 year old Anglo - Arab gelding came in from the field with some sort of insect bites between his point of buttock and hamstring, one looked very nasty and a bit infected so I hosed his leg 3 times a day for about 10...

    Best way to work fat off a fattie??

I got her down from a 58" girth to a 46" (which was done over a long enough period of time, i know it can be just as bad to lose weight too quickly...
