    horse coming back into work

    i’ll get someone to come on the ground next to me when we go hacking in the next week or so. she has a lot of blood and gets very feisty and it’s quite difficult as the roads near us can get quite busy!! but you’re right she has to learn so i’ll get her out the next couple of weeks x

    horse coming back into work

    i don’t want to jump her unfit, that’s why im asking. she has been in work for some time now, trust me when i say that i wouldn’t do something stupid and detrimental to her rehab such as jumping her when she lacks muscle. i don’t want to jump her unfit, that’s why i’ve asked the question above...

    First set of spurs

    Plastic ones I guess.. when i meant scared to use them i meant i didn’t want to use the big metal ones 😂 my instructor told me she needs to feel the pressure from my leg aid because she won’t react to anything else, it’s just trial and error and i trust my trainers judgement x

    First set of spurs

    So I’ve been advised by my instructor to wear spurs when flatting my horse as she’s very lazy when we don’t jump, I've been advised to get rubber ones because I’m too scared to use anything else 🤣. If anyone could suggest any websites/brands/specific first time spurs I would be very...

    Travel boots issues

    So my new mare didn’t come with any travel boots, she’s 15.2/3 9y/o Irish Sports Horse, I’m just wondering whether to get her cob or full boots (she fits in a cob head collar and her Woofwear boots are small horse, rug size is 6ft ish) I’ll try and attach some photos if that helps...

    Horse not enjoying flatwork

    yes she is new.. i know her old owners and i also know that she is a fit horse. I don’t think i have been very helpful providing info so sorry everyone! She was one of 25 horses for her old owner to ride so in the few days before we bought her im assuming that she wasn’t ridden very much...

    Horse not enjoying flatwork

    She’s just been vetted and quite harshly at that so i doubt anything is that wrong with her.. she behaves well but just seems bored with flatwork, i am probably going to give her a week or so of just hacking because my friend did that with her horse and she came back better than ever so might...
