I use shredded paper and its fab. I get it from betta bedding it was a bit strange at first but now I could not use anything else. we have a small heep burning most of the time and gets burns down to nothing. I put the ash in our recycle bin sorted

My brave little man is going for X-rays tomorrow so fingers crossed for him. Will let you know the outcome!! If I'm not having problems with a horse it's a dog and if it's not a dog it's the cat!! But I wouldn't be without any of them.

I've been ringing him for over a week. Does anyone else on here use him having the same problem? Is he OK

That tail is gorgeous and should be really easy to plait. The mane is too long for conventional plaits so a running plait is your only option imo. He's a lovely horse so a good old groom and brush up and a nice quarter mark and you stand a good chance!!

Thankyou Brackenhappy. They will be VERRRY well fed when they come home!!! And maybe they don't have too far to come 'cos we're in Cheshire too.

Bring 'em on guys the more the merrier!!! This means that I am going to have to walk the 3 whole fields every morning before I turn out. Grrrrrr!! Am not a happy BUNNY!!!

Went to catch the big lad today and about 10 feet from where he was geazing was a huge rabbit hole!! It was in the middle of the field and there was a smaller hole a couple of feet away. They were both big enough to put a foot down. We've had problems with rabbits since the beginning of the year...

Dexter Sage and Matty all send doggy hugs and get well licks!!

When I bought a horse from Germany I paid a reputable company to bring him over for me. He had to have a blood test done prior to being transproted and his passport of course. The company I used took care of all the other paper work and were brilliant. He left Germany around 6am and arrived at...

Thank you and Dex says woof!!

My new boy Dexter (7month old Rottie) has been stiff when he gets up for the last couple of weeks. He also seems to sit or lie down a lot. He isn't lame and doesn't cry so don't think he's hurting. Thought he may have pulled something playing with the other two dogs 'cos man can they get rough...

Knowing my horses one would try to eat them and the other would run a mile!!

Let's hope that is the case because even though the horse is dead it doesn't bear thinking about does it?! I have lost two horses over the last few years and they were both removed intact and with as much dignity as possible with such a large animal. The hygenist was quite upset herself as she...

Heard this strange and disturbing story from my dental hygenist (she isn't horsey so may have got it wrong!) One of her customers came in obviously upset and when asked why said that she had to have a five year old horse put down because of a bowel problem. She said that when the men came to...

Have you thought about a freedom fence? Your dog wears a collar which warns her where the boundary is and, after proper training which does not take long, she WILL not cross it. I would suggest if you are away for long periods of time you have slightly more secure fencing for her and for you...
