I have recently started using a grackle on mine and that has stopped him from crossing his jaw. Someone recommened a using a cherry roller - have you tried one of those?

Thanks for the recommendations guys, it is really appreicated. I hope its something that can be sorted and that he hasn't started picking up bad habits. Also if anyone knows of a good dentist - might as well get his teeth checked at the same time just to rule that out.

I have PM'd you Diamond_light :-)

Thank you, i will take a look at her website. :-)

Good morning all..... Can anyone recommend a good back person for horses in the bucks area? I thought i was doing the right thing by my horse, so i got his back done about 3 weeks ago, just as a general health check. I was told him was quite stiff but nothing too serious and just to work...

Can anyone recommend a xc training course with instructor in or around the bucks area?

Hello.... i have recently bought a new horse, he is lovely and has regained my confidence in so many ways but...... Every now and then he decides he doesn't want to do something sticks his head up in the air and runs off and i can't stop him or turn him! he doesn't go far but its becoming a...

I haven't really seen the myler bit until now, thank you for the link i will have a look in to this. He started off ok with the KK bit, now he leans on it and it very hard to get him to listen to anything. But he is so lovely to ride in his pelham. (Always the way)

I ride my horse in a vulcanite pelham and he goes very nicely in it, not strong, carrys himself well and is very responsive to it. We have done a couple of dressage tests now in a KK lose ring snaffel but he leans on it and is very hard work in it. Can anyone recommend a legal dressage bit to use??

He is 7 this year and has been wormed and had teeth checked. You can't see he ribs, so he isn't that underweight but you can see that he not up to full weight as well, if that makes sense? Sorry meant to say that he gets haylage and as much as he can eat. When he was vetted they said that he...

I have a 16.2 warmblood and im struggling to keep his weight on, he has a nice thick neck but the rest of him isn't like that. He is fed ab lib hay, 2 meals a day, he is exercised and does everything from hacking to show jumping. He's not a stressy horse so i know he's not worried about anything...

The person i wanted to go with can't go... she was going to be my lead person just in case.... i might go alone, need to pluck up the courage and stop being such a wuss....

I did it ten years ago on a pony and loved every minute of it, always did love x country - just not done it for a while. When i did go i took a 14.2 pony and we jumped the plane - i have a picture of him with his eyes closed as he is jumping it. ha ha. I now have a 16.2 to take round, i know he...

Hi... is anyone going to Halton this year? I would like to go but am a little unsure - i have a new horse and im not sure if he has done anything like that before and i haven't done it for 10 years!

Bitching on a yard always creates an atmosphere....!! You want it to be a social place, a place where you come to ride your horse, chat with friends and enjoy yourself.
