Thank you. I will definately have to think about getting my vet out to her then for tests.

I have a 9 yr old Welsh Cob mare. I have owned her from birth and I have her mother also. Whilst her mother is a dream to handle, the daughter has always been difficult. She is quite aggressive and threatening. She is also very stallion shaped (very cresty and short in the back). She has never...

I hunted for the first time last year with the Anglesey Draghounds, but was hoping to try somewhere different this year. I was thinking of having a go with the F & D or the Wynnstay. I'm worried that my horse is a little green to cope with the bigger jumps though. I was wondering if there was...

I loved them until they broke!! So comfy and warm. Quite gutted about it really. Thank you!

Ah... great! I'll do that. Thank you!

I have a dually for my bossy Cob. It's brilliant! I would definately recommend it- especially for getting manners when leading. I haven't yet had much success with loading but my mare is particularly stubborn. My friend bought one for her Dales pony, who was difficult to load, and now he goes in...

I don't know if this will help at all but I had terrible problems with my mare, Gwenno. She was backed at three (I sent her to a professional who I trusted). She came home to me where I tried to bring her on. For two years she got progressively worse until I had totally lost my confidence. I had...

I didn't actually buy them from Ariat though!

Might be worth a try. It's been nearly 9 months now though so I'm not gonna hold out much hope. Not a make I've ever hear of but I've just had a quick look and they seem great! I'll do a bit more research on them once I've exhausted all options with the Ariats. Thanks

I wanted Ariat boots for ages! I finally treated myself and bought a pair of Ariat Bromont's last Oct and I LOVED them. They were so comfy and looked great. After 6 months of use though both the popper on one boot and the zip on the other have broken and they are now unwearable. I'm borrowing...

Ha ha ha!! My mare is a tart too... geldings, stallions, mares... everything's fair game. She's 23 years old too- I'd have thought she'd have grown out of it by now!!

They look really good. thanks! I'm going to Anglesey show tomorrow... so I can hopefully try some on. I just needed to get an idea before going!

I had a fall recently- landed on my head and broke my hat. (Thank God I always wear one!) I'm now looking for a new one and I am totally confused... everyone seems to say the same thing. I would get the same one but it has a solid visor which you can't take off which isn't really that good an...

I kinda get what you mean. Especially with Sec D's... they do take a lot longer to mature than other horses I find. Mine certainly did!

Hey. I've had the same problem with my mare. her specially fitted saddle has gone very low on her withers(looks like I'm heading for a new one though!!) I've been using a normal numnah and a pro-lite pad together just to pad around her withers. It's seems to be doing the job especially as it's...
