    Calmer for a nappy horse?

    So last September I bought a pony who I had previously shared for 4 years, kept him at same yard as it was easiest at the time, however due to various reasons we have recently moved (he was moved twice before I took him on as he went on loan first) so this little lad has had a fair few changes...

    He never told me to give anything up just pushed me to the point of giving them up with the comments I got anytime I did something. I stopped wearing my favourite pair of shoes (red doc martens) after all the comments I got when wearing them.

    He disagrees with schooling of any sort, completely okay with hacking because in his mind it isn't "work" as such.

    To clear up, I am not vegan myself although I don't disagree with their beliefs I just cant personally live by them myself! We do have pets (we live together) we have 8 rats and 3 hamsters (all his choice to buy them might I add) The idea of dumping him and buying another horse did cross my...

    Vegan boyfriend...and hunting....

    He's against everything I do with my horse, right down to the leather on my tack! Trouble is horse came after the boyfriend and when I met him, I was having a break from horses because of some health issues so my hobby was never an issue until I decided I was right enough to buy myself a horse...

    Change of yard... completely different horse???

    The point about mare is a good point actually. He's become very attached to a mare he was stabled opposite and turned out next to. YO moved him a few boxes down and moved him in the field but the mare became very upset about it and he has now been moved back next to her in the field. This is the...

    Change of yard... completely different horse???

    I say a bit of speedibeet just because it's a small plastic cup and I've instructed for him to have a third of that. I'm struggling to find enough time to ride anymore atm and he is being ridden 4 times a week around an hour to an hour and a half each time and not keen on putting a sharer on him...
