Sorry but it sounds like he doesn't think much of you. He knew the dogs were part of you and your life before he was on the scene. I could understand it if the dogs had done something bad - but it sounds like you have already compromised so you can all live together with the baby. I can't...

Hi We have a grey gelding that was covered in sarcoids - over 60 of them near his mouth, ears, sheath, girth you name it, some bleeding and others just lumps and some with lumps on lumps! Cream just wasn't going to work so our vet suggested putting him under GA, cutting them all off, and then...

A carefully worded statement could still have included 'thanks for bringing your concern to our attention and we will look into it'. I can't see anything in the statement that suggests they will look into it - internally or externally - which is a shame as it would have helped them to show...

It is a shame the response is so marketing and PR led. I would have hoped they would have at least said they would work with the Luxor outpost to ensure they have the right staff and facilities to help animals that their limited resources will allow. It would not be unreasonable for them to...

Many thanks for all yr suggestions. We tried some at the shop but there wasnt anything that would fit properly even with flocking. The saddler can order us a new one - but £1200 plus! The rider is my husband who is 6'2 and 16 stone hence the 18 inch I think. Perhaps the horses withers aren't...

Hi We have a TB X WB who is skinny (we do feed him loads but he is a worrier so drops weight very easily) but with very high withers so needs a cut back head. Took him to a Master saddler yesterday and he has recommended a Narrow to Medium Albion K2 GP - but in an 18 inch! I've scoured ebay...

I have to say some of the hunts (and followers) aren't doing the campaign to overturn the ban any favours with their aggressive behaviour to anti's on some of the videos either. I appreciate they get frustrated but surely if they are out hunting they should protect the reputation of that hunt by...

We found that walking really helps. Constant gentle walking - rather than strenuous exercise - even if it's hours. My mare originally had colic surgery which was successful - but she was very young and the post care is a lot for any horse and owner to go through. I'm not sure I would put my 13...

Liking horses is part of you and your personality. If he doesn't like it then he doesn't like a part of you. If horses are a big part of your life then he doesn't like a big part of you!! An ex tried to change me and prevent me from doing stuff with the horses. The classic one was on a...

£75 seems rather expensive! We can get them around here for £45 delivered - but perhaps you are short of hay in your area? However if you want them, you can move them without a tractor by using round wooden fence posts as a rolling road. They come apart in slices just like a little hay bale.

I had a mare whose grand sire was Weltmeyer. She was well put together, moved nicely and could really jump too. Fantastic temperament and easy. Only possible downside was lack of speed xc for eventing. But as she wasn't bred to event I can't possibly complain : ) I had great fun and would look...

just don't sell him. Loan or share looks like the way forward as you can always have him back. So many people sell and then regret it.

There is one at Dishley Grange too which I guess is probably nearest to you. The Horse Trough Dishley Grange Farm Derby Road Loughborough Leicestershire LE11 5SF www.horsetrough.co.uk Happy Shopping!

gorgeous! I love Borders. Mine is now 6 and has suddenly gone very very hairy! I had him as a surprise Christmas present. He was in a huge box wrapped up (he was only in there a minute not since Christmas Eve!) and I peeled back the paper and there he was. It was a total shock as I had...

I was expecting to see quite an old horse box so was surprised to see quite a shiny new one! It re enforces my 'need' for a living between the horses and the cab.... if I ever get a lorry that is! Glad the horse is OK and all the emergency people looked to be really calm and professional...
