I used to take my old spaniel with me on hack and when she got tired she would sit on the front of the saddle/mane while I road, dog and horse were both happy doing this! Good luck : )

I've just been in the same position, I've let mine out with one for now and the others in the stable, no harm will come to him being in for a bit, while i try and introduce them slowly again, i expected them to fight with each other not attack the filly, the one shes out with now has a grazing...

http://www.horseandhound.co.uk/forums/album.php?albumid=7243&attachmentid=28220 Not sure if this will work! i've loaded a photo of her in my albums, shes the bay on the right

Some lovely names, thanks, her registered name is Donallt charming lady, but there's a lady in the field next door, she is the sweetest thing ever and is so loving! I'm not sure how to post a picture?

True, but I've already got one called squiggles and I'm sure the neighbours must laugh to themselves when I shout him to come in!

Sorry, that was meant to say filly, not fill!

I can't believe I'm asking this, but I can't find a name that I like for a 4 month old bay fill Welsh sec d foal I bought at the sales yesterday. I would like something quite grown up, but you can still shout across the field! She's a lovely dark bay with a narrow stripe and snip on her nose...

I was taking Glucosomine myself for bad joints and it made them worse somehow! I know take Devils claw which I buy from Holland and barratt and it works really well, I was on a waiting list to have an operation on my ankle, but its so much better now. not sure if this really helps, but good luck...

Thank you Equi, I actually only put about 10g in mine usually with really good results, thanks : )

Another vote her for the pure magnesium, not a calmer, mix it with grated carrot if your being really careful about any hard feed. I've tried all calmers and supplements and the pure cheap magox from ebay is the only thing which has definiatly made a difference for my Welsh Sec C! Good luck

Funny thing is, I remember doing all the riding bareback, round the worlds, scissor chops jumping no stirrups or reins, but my daughters just started pony club last year and they still do all this! Is just not so funny being a parent watching from the side! Any kids who fall off there are...

Loved reading your post and watching your video, makes me think there's hope for mine yet! Do you mind asking how big is he?

My pony gets more col backed in the spring, but he also gets magnesium deficiency, I also thought that maybe it's because he's gaining weight in the spring, maybe it was making his saddle tighter, I've changed his saddle and feed mag and he's much better, maybe worth a trial on mag ox

I currently have 2 geldings, I'm looking for another horse, would you look for another gelding, or do any of you have 2 geldings and a mare with no issues? Thanks in advance 😄

It sounds like it might be worth trying some magnesium oxide, good luck x
