what about a wind up torch.

i love my myler bit, id recommend one to anyone. the myler bit women exlained it to me by saying a normal bit is like putin your finger on your tongue, you cant swallow. but with the myler the horses can, also each side is independent, so you pull on th right rein and the horse can only feel the...

woudnt fancy cleaning it, but if you could afford to pay that much you could afford a couple cleaners.

i loan my competition horse out for 3 days a week as i dont have time to go up everyday anymore. my sharer just texts on a monday saying which days she wants that week, she doesnt feel that confident at the moment so doesnt compete so we dont have any rules on that but if we both wanted to do...

I think if your new to horses and have the spare time and money it can be very benefical, especially if your at a yard without experienced people to help should you have a problem. the stages they do at my yard teach about feed, grooming, tack etc. the sort of things which seem very simple to...

i used to be at a yard where this happened it started with throwing a feed over the door to turning all 7 horses out, it was a nightmare at 6 in the morning. im glad im out.

i believe distrubing horses routine is only going to upet them so i just cary on like its a normal day. if shes in i give her some toys to play with to distract her.

maybe renting wasnt the word to you, what i was thinking was to go to yards and to put the equissage on peoples horses. there are quite expensive so couldnt afford too buy one to only use on my own horse so this wold be a way on benefitting my horse and others. i borrowed one off a friend and...

Horses get magnesium from the grass which calms them down, however this is usually the case whenthe spring grass comes through, but as shes not getting out you could maybe try her on some. ive heard the liquid form is the best but cant say from my own experience.

i wonder if soya oil powder works differently. i once gave my pony alfa a oil and he went crazy, you cld maybe try that if you already havnt.

ie had my liveryman clippers and battery pack 20 years and never had a problem and still in perfect working order.

My horse trips if ive left her feet too long and it takes her a while to get used to them, so because theyve changed the shape of her feet it may just be taking a while to get used to it, maybe ask your farrier for some advice.

Thank you its given a good indication. any other thoughts would be aprieciated.

when i brought my horse back into work she lacked energy, i tried every feed under the sun and nothing helped. somene suggested soya oil with just some alfa a and it was great there was no negative energy. id recommend it to anyone.

i used to have the same problem and tried everything, i hated leavin her wih nothing to eat for the night because shed eaten it all in two hours. now i put her hay on the floor and she always has some left when i leave her, it seem totally illogical but true.
