Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations of any DIY livery yards or even a small private yard to rent in DT11 area near Blandford Forum and the surrounding areas? I am contemplating a move around here but want a small professional yard for my competition horse. It must have...

Hi all, Can anyone recommend any small stables which offer DIY livery? Preferably somewhere quite professional and small, must have an arena & have all year turnout. It is for 1 competition horse. I would consider renting a small yard if it suited. I am based DT11 area, near Blandford...

Hi I was just wondering if anyone had ever bought from Jabeena Maslin Equestrian before and could recommend? Have seen their Facebook page around a bit and just wondering if anyone had any experiences? Thank you.

Yes I know that, hadn't thought of it and may be worth looking into, I was more replying to the other suggestions above as hadn't originally seen yours!

We have been working with the vet and his instructions were to lunge and hand walk but was keen on the lunging aspect, he recommended the equiband but I'm not sure said horse would tolerate it. Ideally I wouldn't lunge with anything but she tends to get a little nosey and look around, therefore...

Hi I have a pony who is coming back from an SI joint injury, I am going to do a month or so lunging in recommendation from the vets. I was just wondering anyone who had any experience bringing a horse back from SI joint problems and what would be best to lunge in? Side reins or what...

Yes its difficult because he is 14 and the vetebrae arent actually touching/kissing in x rays, which in a way I hoped was minor enough to be treated by injections but the keyhole surgery if it worked would hopefully permanently help the issue. Currently he is not in pain on the ground but I...

Hi I have a horse who was recently diagnosed to have some vertebrae which are fairly close together, although not touching in x-rays so not quite kissing spines from what we can see. Said horse is going to go off for a bone scan & further investigation. Having done some research I was just...

Hi all Title is rather self explanatory, doing some premature research as hope to be buying a showjumper later in the year. It would be for someone coming off ponies and would have to have some competition experience maybe 1.10 ish, nowhere that only sells 4 yr olds, the budget isn't huge...

She's quite a fine sports pony so has a very small ribcage but shes a bit tubby at the moment so her girth groove is almost even more forwards then usual hence I'm looking for one that's shaped enough so it doesn't cut in at her elbows, interesting about the prolities rubbing but since she can...

I was considering the narrow guage prolite which were recently released & described as for ponies, did you use a narrow or just normal one?.. Will take a look at the professionals choice one, thank you!

Hi Has anyone used the equiport comfort girth & can give me their opinion on it? Looking at getting one for my pony who has a very forward girth groove and an everyday girth almost folds over her elbow it sits so far forwards, she also can be quite girthy.. Has anyone seen an improvement with...

Hi I bought some lovely polo bandages however they are far too long at 3m for my 14hh pony who's pretty fine boned (Think Thoroughbred legs just a tad bit shorter). I am going to trim them down length wise and was just wondering what the best polo bandage length for ponies would roughly be...

Hi Can anyone recommend good places to shop for either potential junior event horses or showjumpers with potential to do 120/130cm, horses must have had a little competition experience preferably although not fussed if its just a little showjumping would be for a teenager so no where with...
