Hi Llewelyn - kind offer I will get back to you when i have measured her legs!

She is (was) but not as friendly or open to suggestion as that (hence WAS!)

Mardymare - is that your wee Jack Russell looks just like mine-never seen dark JR till I got her,lots of people find it diff to accept that JR are not just white but a mixed bag & we love her to bits.

I am a big fan of natives in their natural state & want to promote it!

My 12 year old daughter goes thro jods at such a rate I am desperatly seeking 2nd hand ones to keep up with her-anyone want to rehome any? She is 12 but skinny wee waist & well formed legs size -26 to get the leg length.

As long as your horse is ok with the clippers (de-sense first if not sure)allow lots of time to fiddle & trial & error with them.Takes a while to get it right & I really do it by feel-keep checking them regularly as they can get hot & choose this time to give it a wee break,brush & oil.Use a...

Here here,general opinion in Britian seems to be that ponies are a stepping stone to a 'proper' horse:confused:,I have 3 native ponies12hh,13.2 & 14.2 all low maintenance & turn their hoof to anything great weight carriers & fantastic characters wouldn't swap them for any horse.I find my...

I have playing at Parelli for a few years now - you might want to have a wee look,it all comes down to Horsenality & what you need to learn to motivate your horse & it is differs greatly!

Thankyou,always felt like a bit of a yee ha rider which I am happy with but dressage not for the likes of me - will have a go ,my very competitive 12 year old daughter I am sure will volunteer to be at hand to (constructively)criticise us.:D

Well where to begin,can't afford lots of lessons,any tips?

I have had my Dales/Apaloosa gelding for 8 years now (age 16 now) is it too late to introduce him to dressage,he has done abit of everything but neither of us are knowlegable in anything except going fast & cruising the countryside.I would like to have something new to work towards although we...

Just weaning my Jack Russell onto raw food diet,my son has not been shooting lately so no rabbits (she wants to play with them not kill them herself) so my butcher gets in offal for me & she seems very happy on that mixed with the odd bone or stick to clean her teeth.We are all so easily led to...

And (Tobin)you say at least you know what it is but didn't say - what it is it???

I reckoned his is ok just more than the other produces - smells but not an offensive infection type smell & has never changed colour or pattern in 6 years,always thought if it ain't broke don't fix it only unsavoury to us clean humans?
