I'm four and a half weeks post hip replacement. It really does get easier but you must do your exercises and try not to over bend (the most frustrating restriction). I'm walking with one stick for light support and using my litter picking tool to pick up stuff out of reach.
Went to see our...
We're already paying £45 per week for DIY (stables; turnout; floodlit outdoor school and storage) in East Yorkshire so really hoping it doesn't increase.
Will try the Allen and Page. They only get a token feed and the meadow nuts are very versatile. The mini only gets a handful of chaff so as not to be left out.
What are the alternatives please? Low cal (two very good doers including an escape artist mini); readily available; no alfalfa ( one intolerant) no garlic ( one sweet itch pony) and palatable. Have tried honey chop and most others but unfortunately they thrive on Thunderbrooks so I'm using it.
Sweet itch as others have said. Stubborn and self-opinionated like no other but loving and sure footed. Mine is a naughty schoolboy but I love him to absolute bits.
We're looking to relocate to East Yorkshire and will need livery, preferably DIY for two geldings under 15.2hh, fairly close to Goole. Any suggestions or places to avoid please?
Really good news. So good to hear of someone that listens to their horse and takes advice. You are a credit to horse ownership and Prince is very lucky x
