Can I just clarify then as I think I have been misadvised. If I were to buy say a 5 tonne lorry for my own private use for my own horses only would I need a Taco as I have told I would

Ive spoken to the lady who stood him - last year the sire on did a handful of coverings as he was on the show circuit so there is only a limited number of youngstock by him, especially part breds. The prices just seem to vary so much for this type of youngster which is why I am struggling to...

Sorry he is Bay !!! I think he will make 15.2/15.3

Yes I have in the past - although do be careful with some products as you will get a customs charge on goods as well. I used to order a supplement and it was 75% cheaper to buy it from America than my vet so it was worth it even if I did get a customs charge - although I didn't always ! What...

Hoping for a bit of advice on here. I have a connie x Tb yearling colt that I need to seriously advertise. Have done it half heartedly but thats all He is well bred and will make a great little horse. What kind of money should I advertise him for - I want to price him to sell and the home is...

You will know when its time to call it a day. I lost my mare last year to colic, she was only 13 and had a foal at foot. Its a an awful decision to be faced with. Good luck

Lots of snow here in South Yorkshire and its still snowing, there is about 5 inches on the ground. Im working from home today !

Nfu are behind the times as many companies have done this for quite some time. I have been insured with NFU for over 10 year and I think that they are really good.

[ QUOTE ] For £50.00 the OP could get the Knackerman out. [/ QUOTE ] thats a bit uncalled for. I have had a stonker of a vets bill this year, I was insured, so had always considered that would cover a major incident..... Not the case. I ended up with a colic bill in excess of £10k only...

I know that this isnt in the dog section but I wanted to post here so lots of you saw it. There is a local charity in Yorkshire called Rain Rescue www.rainrescue.co.uk who try and get as many dogs out of the council pounds as they can to prevent them from being PTS. They do a fabulous job...

She often travels all over England so I wouldnt rule her out if you like her website. We are in Yorkshire and she linked us in with someone else so she came to the area to do a couple of readings. Where abouts are you ? I have a friend who also does Bowen and Reiki I would be happy to put you...

I have also found Gold Label mud guard very effective, if the mud fever hasnt got hold then it will treat it too, if you have a lot of scabs you need to get rid of them first. Having had a a horse with 4 white legs Ive been through every lotion and potion ! I used to use baby oil to soft the...

Mari I can personally recommend Margrit Coates - she is very good. If you are interested in this type of thing she has also written a really nice book called Healing for Horses. Answered a lot of questions regarding my old mare.

Done. Tankey - are you in touch EMW - I think it might be useful if they set up an appeal page with a target on then people would have visability. Its ok us all donating the odd £20 but what realistically do they need to get through the winter ? Perhaps that could be the target.

I need to find a new place for my foal (its a long story) I dont really want to put him on a livery yard as I would prefer that he had another foal/youngster to play with. He is 6 months old and is very well handled, good to be caught, led etc. He is currently stabled at night and out during...
