Mine is not far off that - about 35m x 15m. It's great for my two. They are generally very calm but can and do have a run around on it. I only have two acres of the most ridiculously claggy clay. I'd never have been able to keep the horses at home if we hadn't put it in. It's brilliant. I've...

Me too. There are some good deals in the premier equine website st the moment.

It's how my horse presented as choke, but it was snot streaming out of his nose a few days after what must have been a very mild choke episode. I initially thought strangles, so immediately called the vet. They do their strangles calls at the very end of the day. When the vet turned up, the...

I think a whippet would be perfect. If she's got a big garden, then a little run around that would be fine of she doesn't feel like a walk for a day, but are happy on long walks too. They don't need grooming, a towel down after a walk and they are bone dry. They are the ultimate lap dogs.

Being whippet-lurchers: Running Sleeping More running Followed by more Sleeping Etc... They do love coming down the stables with me. The horses'feed with Equinectar in is a real treat for them.

Exactly what I thought. I love Salukis, but don't want a lurcher with any Saluki in it at all.

There are some beautiful lurcher pups being advertised, I think, from a rescue centre. Saluki cross Malinois!! They are absolutely lovely looking pups. To be fair to the advert, they are quite blunt about both breed characteristics.

I think most people with lurchers are pretty pragmatic about their munching exploits. I wouldn't have worried too much about any of mine eating that. I'd have kept an eye on them.

Whippet with a bit of something more substantial, I'd say. Two of mine are 7/8 whippet 1/8 greyhound. Perfect mix. Just gives them a bit more substance.

Though not ideal, my whippet-lurchers are more than happy to be by themselves when I'm at work. They sleep all day whether I'm here or not and I have absolutely no qualms in leaving them. They have a walk before I leave and another when I come home. I'd go for a whippet-greyhound puppy. After 3...

If you look at Simple Systems' Facebook page, they've put a post up in the last few days about the difference between their hay Cobs and grass nuts. Something to do woth the different grasses used.

I personally don't much see the point of doing A levels. They are really only useful to get into university. BTECs in a local college might be far more appropriate. If you decide later on that you want to go to uni, then dependent on the course you wanted to pursue, Level 3 qualifications such...

This morning. Lovely.

I love how yours match the landscape. Both dogs and landscape are spectacular!

It's the far western edge of the Brecon Beacons. Very rare that anyone makes it as far west for a walk, so I rarely see a soul on my walks. Perfect!
