    Yet another delightful rider..... not..... when will this end?

    I think we are going to see a lot of this. Horses that have spent their lives with their mouths strapped tightly shut now making the most of the new regulations

    Life after weight loss jabs ?

    I knew a very overweight woman who had a gastric band when they first started doing them 25+ years ago. She lost the weight but then got very underweight as she wasn't getting enough nutrition and sadly ended up dying because of it.😪 She would have been about 40.

    Life after weight loss jabs ?

    EMS/laminitis diagnosis in 21 year old ISH, non good-doer, not overweight

    Did we all manage to get to the yard today?

    Days like this make it worth the cost of paying for livery and knowing he's fine even if I don't go. I walked very carefully up to the shop for milk and that's all I'm doing. -7 and layer of ice and graupel this morning. Was warned off the country lanes by a friend.
