    Horse won't move out of walk - Pain related?

    @BBP Thank you for this! I have spoken with my vet today and mentioned hindgut ulcers but he said this would have shown on the blood tests. Was yours blood tested? How did you diagnose?

    Horse won't move out of walk - Pain related?

    Hi @scats - Thank you for this, something to consider. Although would she not improve during the bute trial if it was PSD?

    Horse won't move out of walk - Pain related?

    Thanks @BBP - How were they treated? With Sucralfate? We treated her for stomach ulcers around this time last year but her symptoms were very different, rearing, napping and very grumpy. We treated her with Omeprazole (via injection as she's so fussy with syringes etc) and also i think we did...

    Horse won't move out of walk - Pain related?

    I've got an 11 year old Belgian WB x TB who I have owned since a 5 year old. Over the years she has cost me a small fortune in vets fees, from a tendon tear to colic surgery and a few things in between (including ulcers)! She can be quite hot to ride but does generally enjoy her work especially...

    Old Rambo Turnout - What weight is it?

    Now i'm wondering if it's just the inside of mine that has the white stripe?! I will have to check again tonight.

    Old Rambo Turnout - What weight is it?

    I have a very old Rambo turn out rug, must be 15+ years old, but still in excellent condition as over the last few years it's only been used as a stable rug. All of the labels have faded and I want to know the weight of it in grams? Did they make them in certain colours for certain weights...

    CALMERS!! Nupafeed or Horse First, Relax Me?

    Thanks Goldenstar - However I think that's actually the cause of the problem. We unfortunately do not have turnout through the winter, so she is exercised every day is is feeling very fit and well. Probably a lot fitter than she is in the summer with turnout. She is fine to ride during the...

    CALMERS!! Nupafeed or Horse First, Relax Me?

    What are people opinions on both of these calmers? I've used Nupafeed before and think it worked well but I'm always sceptical that it's just a coincidence with these calmers. Have heard good reviews of Horse First Relax Me but never used it myself. Which would you go for??

    Rugs - weights & temp

    I hate the decision of rugging! I'm always in a dilemma every night at the moment as the temperature seems to be varying so much. I have two both fully clipped (legs still on). My tbxwb is wearing a 300g turn out combo - She has the neck back during the day and on at night and my other one, who...

    Trailer cameras - Which is best?

    I have an Equi-trek Space Treka trailer and am looking to install an internal camera so I can keep an eye on the horses whilst we're driving. I understand you can't have the screen in view of the driver (my mum currently drives, so i'd always be passenger), and we have a Land Rover Discovery if...

    Clippers - Liveryman Black Beauty or Lister Legend?

    Thankyou for your replies. Have you used the mains version of the Lister Liberty? As this is only 12v do you think this is just a powerful as other mains clippers? I'm now trying to decide between the two Listers. Thanks

    Clippers - Liveryman Black Beauty or Lister Legend?

    Hi all, In need of some advice/reviews etc on clippers. I am looking for some new clippers due to my very old pair dying last year and have narrowed my search down to the Liveryman Black Beauty or Lister Legend (or even Lister Liberty). I have two horses, one of which has to be clipped under...
