Stunning little filly! Makes me broody again!

I'm not sure about Westphalian branding but I have a pink papered Hanoverian filly who I took to the Regional Show when she was 3 months old in order to get her passport. She was hot branded here - didn't bat an eye - I was soo worried about that aspect of things! The brand disappeared over...

My horse started this a few years ago, i gave her some time off (put her in foal) and when bringing her back into work before Christmas, she was still very reluctant to go forward. She had her hinds scanned which show extensive scarring of her suspensory ligament. I think she also has pain in...

My horse is the same! The one thing that works for me is to mix some icing sugar with water in a bowl (quite watery!) and mix in the antibiotics - then syringe like a wormer! It is a right pain in the neck, good luck!

That was my favourite, Bubblegum!

I know how you feel! my mare has just foaled on day 361!!! Good luck!

I have unfortunately only just come across this saga.... I have paid in full 4 weeks ago for an item which showed in stock on the 'CAM' website. They took the payment (credit card) and stated a 6 week delivery. When I chased this today, they couldnt give a firm delivery date at all. I really...

Northern Dressage Group run clinics at Osbaldeston RC with Stephen. See northerndressage.org.uk look under training. Hope that helps!

Hi there, She is by Sir Lui (a graded son of Silvio) out of a Wendekreis mare. I will be more than happy if the foal is a carbon copy of her! I have put her to Dr Dolittle so am excited to see what will pop out!

The stallion is approved with all the European studbooks, so that would not be an issue. I've just found out that I would have to either take the mare and foal to Belgium (no, thanks) or send by post photos of foal, a drawn and written description from my vet, and some tail hairs for them to...

Thank you SF, I will do that, exactly the advice I was looking for. I'm probably biased but think she would do okay!

My Belgian warmblood competition mare is in foal to a Hanoverian stallion (due April). I just wondered about you knowledgable people's opinions on which stud book to register foal with? If I register with the British Hanoverian Horse Society, I have to take mare and foal for grading, for the...

I was just thinking the other day that Saddle fitters should have a selection of trees that could be tried on the horses backs to get the best fit. I have never seen this done before and would be much more interested if this were the case.

Village Saddlery are good if you are buying a new saddle - God forbid you have a problem with it though! Very unhelpful now.

My horse much prefers my old Farrington, I am riding in it again and cant sell my top of the range Albion SLK Ultima which is only 18 months old, at less that half price - used it for a month!! so i feel your pain, if only people realised how good these saddles are, they would snap your hand...
