    Rug liner system - the way to go?

    I also use Swish rugs and liners, have a 50g turnout, 100g liner and then a 200g turnout for each pony, so I can have 50g, 150g, 200g and 300g combinations. I also love that they have detachable necks. Mine are unclipped at the moment and are nice and cosy in their 50g rugs with no neck.

    Summer dermatitis?

    I searched some old threads as one of mine developed a scabby heel on a white sock, he is super thin skinned so we are using filtabac where we can see pink skin and acriflex cream on the scabs, which are now dropping off after a couple of weeks with perfectly healthy skin underneath, no picking!

    Where to start.....

    Well, another spanner thrown into the works this morning, he tried to mount an in season mare..... under saddle!!! And he meant it, he was erect and teeth bared, luckily all escaped in one piece. He has never shown any riggy behaviours in the 12 months we have owned him and he lived with a mare...

    Wide stirrup leathers

    We have the Lemieux ones, which are nice, particularly useful for one of my daughters who is hypermobile, the added stability helps prevent over-extension.

    AIBU (Pony Shopping)

    So far, in my pony shopping experience, I have had a pretty easy ride, but this search is proving a little more difficult. So I am just after a bit of a sense check from the good people of HHO to check that I am being reasonable with budget and wish list....... We are into second PC pony...

    Talk to me about Dachshunds and having a second dog

    IVDD is neither specifically a genetic condition, or specifically a condition caused by lifestyle. It is often a combination of the two and although breeding stock can be screened for calcifications, the presence, or lack thereof, is still no guarantee that that dog, or its offspring will or...
