My friend has been allowing me to share her horses' fields for a year now, but it's coming up to bonfire night and a neighbour or two has huge parties around this time. There's not enough stabling for all the horses and it would help her greatly if I could find somewhere else for Brandon. He's...

Rocky was reared by an Essex Riding School and sold on to a loving owner in the Chelmsford Direction. I would like to get in touch with the owner (he was approximately 7 when sold and is now around 12 I'd guess). He would have been sold as a horse to love, do distance rides, or just happy...

Thanks to all for your comments. I have asked the vet to have a look next week and hopefully I can get everything resolved. I would hate to think he was hurting because of something I'd done wrong. None of the other horses he's sharing with show any signs of discomfort, so I've got my fingers...

Unfortunately, the little man isn't too keen on letting me have a close inspection of the marks, but as the hair is coming out in little clumps, they're either healed bites, or they're not bite marks at all. My vet will need to come out to him I think. Thanks for the backup - I never thought...

Brandon isn't much over a year old. When I first got him he was terrified and carried marks from the halter that had grown into his nose. As well as worms and a mites, he also had a 50p sized chunk of white scab on his mane. Eventually I pulled that piece of mane out and treated the bare area...

Brandon came with what I thought was a 1" bite mark on the crest of his mane. It looked sore but was scabbing over. However, it hasn't healed after 1 month. I was grooming his mane yesterday and a large chunk came out with a white scabby bit on the end of it. The bald bit is still there and...

I'd like to join this conversation. I've just acquired a yearling cob. He's been out last winter - as he wasn't looked after. He is pretty healthy and now has a headcollar that doesn't cut into his head and decent feed. I want to overwinter him outside, but part of me wants to do that cuddly...

Hi, Brandon's sister told you about our deal little yearling with not the best start in life. Well we've now had him for nearly two weeks. From an uncatchable, scared little thing, he is daily grown in confidence. He now blows gently into my face, lets me put on a lead rein and brush him...
