I would recommend contacting your local pony club. They can usually point you in the right direction for a good geniune pony right for your needs.

I use this all the time. Sometimes if the little black ball at the bottom of the top well is not securely in place you cannot fill the top well. You can tell, if you've removed the cap and squeezed the big part of the bottle and you get some little bubbles and air coming from around the little...

Mine go out at 7am and back in when I get back from work about 6pm. Then in cozy stable for the night. They like it that way

That could be worth a try. It does seem to be a matter of getting her to stop forward thinking. I'll give it a go. Thanks

Yeah she's fine over trotting poles; fine over canter poles; approaches a jump lovely in trot no probs and doesn't tank after a jump it is literally just when you approach in canter towards a showjump; she doesn't do it xc. I'm wondering if it is just a confidence thing but we are now getting...

Hi everyone would appreciate your valuable advice. My horse is forward thinking and trys to anticipate your moves. When it comes to jumping as you turn the corner for the jump she see's it - goes flat and then tanks; either that or sticks her head in the air as high as she can and prances on...

Can anyone recommend one that really works. My saddle keeps slipping forward in faster gaits and it's really annoying. The saddle fit has been checked and is fine. I'm looking at buying a Limpet or the Impakt - does anyone have any other recommendations or comments on the performance of these...

Hi it's hard not to speculate, when a horse shows severe reaction to back pain, but keep your spirits up. My horse was diagnosed with KS and operated on successfully just coming up to 2 years ago now and has made a complete and full recovery. She progressively went downhill before the op to...

Champion do seem to be a good allround fit and comfortable

Thanks - we made the poor camera man (my oh) walk miles!

I've posted a load of photos of me and Honey on the Picture Gallery if you fancy taking a look. It was great fun and she did really well.

Oh well done on and upwards from here - but remember slow and steady wins the race. Great to hear your good news.

So glad to hear that Dozzie's doing well too. Did you manage to resolve her problem or is it still something that you just have to manage? You'll have to post some pics of your HT on her when you do it, I'd love to see them.

Don't know if some of you may remember the horse that had the op for kissing spine and then had a horrendous accident going through a cattle grid when someone had let her out of her stable one night. Well it's 18 months on now and she's making great progress. If anyone fancies a look I've...

I use Benzil Benzoate for my girl and a good rug. I've found the cheapest source for BB to be Chemist Direct online. It is quite hard to get it from normal chemists now for some reason. I also put brewers yeast into her feed (this is a cheap form of vitamin B) which taints their blood and the...
