Anyone used these people before - looking for feedback good or bad. Thanks D xx

Thanks! I do believe that he's just testing me out, which isn't very nice, but he's always been a bit of a Kevin, as my instructor says. I've had everything checked, back, saddle, he's not on too much feed. I've even put him on Steady Up to see if that will make a difference. He can be quite...

Thanks! I've tried all sorts with him. Unfortunately, I had to give in on saturday, as he was getting a bit dangerous and it was just my luck, that a few cars decided to come down the lane. As for going the other way, it leads up to the main road, so it's not really an option. I'll just have...

HELP!!!!!! My horse has started napping on the roads. He used to be excellent, would go out by himself and always be well behaved. But now it's a nightmare, he will go out with other horses and more than happy to take the lead. But if we go out by ourselves, we can get so far down the lane...

Thankx - I'll give it a go!

Would baby bubble bath do the same job as the baby shampoo??

That sounds great as a fly spray - I will definitely be trying that as my man, just can't stand the midges. Any suggestions for what to put on to try and relieve the itching?? Especially around the sheath, he's constantly trying to kick it - poor lad.

Thinking of investing in a horsebox - quite like the look of the Equi-trek range. Seem very expensive thou. Has anyone been to look at one, or has one - are they to be recommended?? Thanks

Hi - has anyone got any experience of using Colne Saddlery based in Gloucester - good or bad!

I must admit I used them about 4 years ago and was very pleased with the service. But since Gary's no longer with us, I wasn't too sure if the standard would be the same.

Looking for a saddler I can trust (fingers crossed) in the Worcester / Midlands area. Can anyone recommend one. I'm after a dressage saddle for my dutch warmblood!

I've had both my horses done - with no side effects - one on the neck, the other under the saddle. At least I know if the worst did happen (don't want to think about it!!!) - that it's not that easy to sell them on!

I'm considering having one - once fitted do they take much adjusting??

Has anyone had a dressage saddle fitted by The Saddle Company?? Would you recommend them??? Already been bitten by one saddle company, don't fancy wasting anymore money on another!
