Thanks all, kind of confirmed what we thought ref the Evoque towing ability...or lack of!

Looking for peoples opinions as looking to buy one of these as our towing car. Won't be new, looking from 2017 onwards secondhand. Obviously bit of price difference between the 2 depending on spec, mileage etc. Would also be used for our 2 dogs, Dachshund and Springer Spaniel so either would...

I'm giving Laysoft a try. Local guy supplies and has dropped me off 10 baes to see how i get on with it. £7 a bale but you get 25kg's in a bale. Price can drop as low as 6 if bulk buying. I didn't mind using wood pellets when they were coming in at less than £3 a bag, but they're not great in...

Has anyone switched to an alternative since the prices of wood pellets have gone through the roof?! I got a pallet last winter for £230 and everywhere is pretty much double that now. Looking at other options...

These are fab: https://saddleselector.co.uk/products/farringtons-leather-knee-blocks I swapped them on my jump saddle for these as hubby as a Farrington International event with these blocks and really comfy and secure.

We added a black flexible tube to the end of a syringe, secured with a jubilee clip, when we had to give Karadox..and then Baytril...to Fabio. You can then get the tube in far enough then syringe in. He accepted that more - possibly as it went straight down and missed his taste buds?! I don't...

How long have you had the horse?

I have some red and white jump poles from Poly Jumps that have severely faded in the sun. Would it work to use coloured duct tape on these to smarten them up?

If its for a potential share and the horse is only a mild shiverer i wouldn't have any issues. However i would never buy another with shivers. I had Fabio from a 4 year old and he had very mild shivers. We done everything, dressage, jumped, hacked. He was fantastic until he went downhill rapidly...

I got a load of these - they are huge and hold a load of hay/haylage but small holes. Half price...

I can't have my boy on haylage - even though ours is drier and more like wrapped hay, it makes it worse! Have to have separate hay for him as all our others are better on haylage (one with COPD). I have found that adding activated charcoal and brewers yeast has helped a lot. I was feeding...

For the half circle i use a flexi curve as you can literally guide the clippers around it to get a nice shape and replicate the same size on the other side.

Really sorry. You are doing the best for him so he doesn't suffer. I'll pm you if you don't mind? Would like to offer something. x

Well will soon see as ordered the Wychanger Barton saddle ready for saddler coming out to fit next Thursday, can send back if not right. Spoke to the lady at the saddlery that has the saddle before i bought online, she said has had a few of them and identical to Farrington which is good! Have...

Sadly 101 Dalmatians done them no favours with people buying them without researching the breed. They need LOTS of exercise, on a par with collies and springers, they never tire!
