I only parted with him in 2010 after a heartbreaking decision as he had far too much talent for me

What a sad,sad story.....I agree fully..a horse that is suffering should be put out of its misery...sometimes it can be all to easy to think we are "saving" a horse...but we also need to set aside our own feelings and do what is right by the horse in question....so very right,older horses that...

At least the police are being useful thats a good start...
we have thought about getting a couple of dogs to roam around but I can't bring it in my heart to leave a dog out like that....so for now we have put a sign up "beware of dogs" and my terrier makes enough noise when he's at the yard with...

But then he knows his job
This Nahajola she is a kwpn,she has had 2 babies whilst here with us,and really now leads a life of leisure..she'll live the rest of her days...
Our kwpn is very prone to girth galls tried various different girths and girth sleeves..
We then saw a girth on e-bay that is completly fur lined with both buckled sides elasticated..(will sort out a picture for you)
