I've tried nearly every calmer on the market, all had no effect, until I tried a calmer by a company called Nupafeed. I used the booster syringes for my boy for competition use and found it amazing. He was totally chilled but still forward going and listening. I am considering now putting him...
Theres a good one in Amersham/chesham area amersham livery. or there's a few in Stoke Mandeville if thats any good to you? How about trying the CHiltern and thames rider thats always good? x
Hi all thanks for the advice, I'm gonna ask my YO if I can go round the courses once the competition has finished to see how that goes.
Magic_Mincepie: I have owned him 10 years now, he's 18. I brought him as a 'supposed' 7 year old but the dentist and vet say he was probaly younger than that...
Yeah but not excessivly, and we always ahve a lesson the day after the shows over the exact same course and he's fine, has a stop to begin with but soon settles and goes beautifully.
I do try and find places that run the clear round training things, but he's fien at these has mayb one stop but gets on with it, it seems to be just at home!
Yep I am very fed up, its difficult as I have no transport of my own I have to rely on other people but I'll see if I can get soem one to take me out.
Yeah I defiantly get nervous, I have no confidence now 10 years of humiliation has ruined it all
Sorry if this is a long post but I'm in need of some unbiased advice and help. Basically my pony has a few issues when it come to jumping at competions. He loves jumping at home and has a lot of scope but as soon as we enter a competiton we end up being eliminated becasue he just refuses...
The last 2 days my boy has been very slightly lame on a circle on the right fore in trot. He's sound in straight lines but on cirlces and tight turns he is slightly lame. I've noticed a new lump on the right fore just below the knee on the outside, not sure if this is a splint?? There is no heat...
I use them on my boy, and we use them at work ( a retirement yard with over 100 horses) and they are the best things we've ever used. Even the horses with no teeth can manage them happily and all the fussy feeders love them. They are fantastic for getting weight on as well.
Thanks everyone, glad you all think it poorly written I thought it was just me! Nearly all the questions are worded in that kind of way appaling really.
