Hi I was wondering if anyone had any info on any fun/ sponsored rides in the midlands. All I have found online is past rides in 2013. I just want to plan ahead if anyone knows of any! Thanks!

Thank you for kind reply, it is nice to hear from someone who has been in a similar situation. I have had some people say to me how can put her through this, she is hungry you are not feeding her, and people say to my face she is an animal not a child! But the fact is she is so loved by everyone...

No mine have 2 feeds a day and Hayed twice but are just greedy 2x section C and cob X they are all chunky good doers they will do anything for their food! Other liveries have tbs, and they do their own things with their feeding patterns but that is up to them. So they may be but they are not...

It really is awful I constantly drive past to check she is ok. She is not bullied when there aren't people around or when they are not being fed or waiting to be fed. It is all food related when they are kicking off she is in the line of fire. But like I said above I have a few options in place...

We are getting through a large round bale every 2-3 days slightly too much I believe this early on in winter but other liveries are wanting to hay lots due to having fine tb's already dropping weight. Mine are good doers so not a problem in that department. Obviously they get through their piles...

When we hay we put 10+ piles out for the six horses away from the water. Her pile is placed far away from others however they will come over and still kick her off, she will move onto a new pile and the same will happen like I said relentless. I plan to move her to a neighbouring field with the...

I treat her like one of my children, so I am as defensive over her as I would be for them against bullying. She is part of out family, but I do need to remember she is a horse and therefore does maybe not feel as bad as I think she does. She has a full belly is warm and dry everyday so her life...

That is a good idea, I will try thank you.

She does not settle well in a stable, however the other liveries are starting to bring in this week over night. So I'm hoping the other ponies who live out will not be such bullies without the influence of the big horses around. She is a very tricky one, but gives so much love I just wish they...

I wish I could keep her with her companion but she is bullied by her too! It's just relentless I am just desperate for her to be able to settle and eat and drink like the other horses without being kicked off! Just wondering if anyone else has been in a similar situation that can give me some...

My little mare has always been the lowest member of the herd, but lately the bullying has become much worse. She is chased off her hay when there are many piles out. They all have their own piles but enjoy constantly kicking her off her own. She cannot have a drink without being booted off! They...
