Hi All, I have spent the last couple of hours researching what dressage girth to buy for my mare and from reading many posts on here and other online reviews the Professional Choice Girth gets my vote.. However I can't seem to find anywhere online to buy a brown dressage girth.. I am sure...

Are you in Ireland... It is warm here but I suppose it is only March so its a possibility :O(

I feel I should offer some hope although I don't really like to tempt fate but here goes... I am currently awaiting a loss of use payout (read arguing with insurance about horses value) but the day I get my horse branded is not far in the future. My girl a write off with Sue Dyson spent...

Hiya, I live in Loughborough and stable at Blaby Mill stables in Blaby (they do have a website). So it takes me 30 minutes which is not ideal but I work in Birmingham so its do-able. I can't see it being much more than 20 minutes from Syston and its a pretty straight route. Facilities...

Can I ask you some questions, feel free to pm me if its better. Who are you insured with? I have had a loss of use claim accepted but have had 6 months of arguing over figures. Have they offered you full pay out? I only ask as they offered me less than half of what I paid a year ago...

U selling your boy? Do you have an update? I am literally just bringing back into ridden work.

I would choose Coligone or call trinity before spending ££ on the over the counter probiotics etc..neither would work out more expensive. Coligone is cheap as maintanence and trinity would make something bespoke.

Thats an ace picture :O) you have inspired me to get some batteries from my camera and go snap some pics of my girlies!

Maybe his belly is feeling a bit acidic from the lack of grass in the field? I always thought that wind sucking was because of the horse trying to relieve a an acidic or bloated feeling, I guess then it become learned. You could try Coligone? or give Trinity herbs a call?

I have recently spent ££££'s on diagnostics with a large equine hospital. IMO they are quick to use one of the expensive diagnostic techniques but slow to use others.. why? The cynical me says that it's maybe something to do with how they are funded, maybe it is just something to do with the...

Becky, Don't let this bother you as we are no where near there yet. I am getting my mare's suspensories re scanned by my local vets and compared to all the images we have from new market in the next couple of weeks. We are almost 6 months of grass turnout now and I am hoping that there is some...

Ok so its been a long road but my insurance company have finally accepted liability for loss of use on my mare.. Horse is insured with one of the major companies and was only purchased a year and a half ago for 5k this is also what she is insured for. They have just offered me £2,200 of which...

So I have decided that what is already done of 2010 was a write off and i have now started the year again (Happy 2010 and 3/4's everyone) Unfortunately we never got to write any competition report due to suspensory damage to 3 legs and in July I prepared my self to have my girl put down on...

Freestyler, he is very special :O) lovely Everyone.. thank you so much for your replies. I have spoken with my own vet today, who pretty much echo'd what SD had to say. I have asked him to have a look at Rogers website and to come back to me with what he thinks, I have now asked new market for...

Thank you so much for everyones replies of course some excellent advice and well the hugs and love mean a lot. I have already pursued the loss of use claim so I will have until the loss adjusters come back to me to make a decision on what to do. Bit scared about how she will cope if we have a...
