    Anxiety\fear getting worse

    Yes! I do Reformer Pilates which is ace for core, balance & strength, which helps me feel "right" in the saddle & therefore more confident.

    CDJ withdrawn from paris

    Dave loves a show. ALL THESE PEOPLE to give him attention, including a guy on a mobility scooter that I expected would send him into orbit, no he gave that bloke the biggest snuggle. He loves to chat to people. He wasn't scared of the horse drawn farm machinery, although he looked a bit...

    Anxiety\fear getting worse

    Are you female & of a certain age? Menopause destroyed my confidence. Now with HRT & some very supportive friends, I am making good progress back to where I was before!

    Very specific question - psyllium husks and ulcer prevention

    I get Hestevard Colon Aid. It's pricey, but lasts ages. I feed the first 7 days of every month. There's also NAF Sand Gard.

    CDJ withdrawn from paris

    I have seen her in many press posts today. Many people calling it a "Witch Hunt". I have to agree with all who have commented before. If she'd come back riding with a more sympathetic, softer manner, we (the general people) may well have forgiven. BUT She Who Once Claimed To Be Ethical, Kind &...

    Very specific question - psyllium husks and ulcer prevention

    The problem with the human psyllium is that it's gross & goes to gloop as soon as it goes in their mouth. Some ponies (DAVE!) find it absolutely abhorrent, so he has to have pellets.

    Am I alone in this view?

    I can see it from the side of necessity & urgency. Very ill pony needs to go to the vet. Said pony is currently having the worst day of his life & is not going to make it worse by getting in the lorry (we know this will get him on the way to recovery, but he doesn't know that). Swift action...

    Long boot recommendations...choice of 2

    I got the Rhinegold for an economical long boot to try. They have only been worn in the house a few times to break in, but they're comfy & rather smart looking.

    Horse calmers

    However it is a useful point to consider. There are so many factors in which calmer may or may not work, mainly starting with deficiencies in the diet & also things over fed in the diet. Is the pony generally anxious all the time, or just jumpy? Is the pony in work? The one single calming...

    Cheeky/ridiculous posts you see on Facebook.

    Yes, I'm afraid I can't see beyond exploitation of child & "attached" followers. It's not pleasant at all.

    Making the decision to PTS when objectively a situation could be improved

    You'll get no judgement from me. You're doing the best for her.

    The dealer that cannot be named

    Yes, exactly. The 2nd was told the horse needed shoes, when he was in fact being returned from the first lady. Shameful. I have had enough of these people who think nothing of putting people's lives at risk to line their own pockets.
