When my pony had lami, i would soak one haynet overnight and one through the day. As someone else noted, defo rinse thoroughly with fresh water to get rid of the gross hay water. Your horse might be fussy at first but it should eventually begin to eat it and get used to it.
Aww he seems like such a lovely boy! I'm really sorry for your loss. Horses are the best healers and Toby would be glad you have a new horsey pal to help you get through such a hard time<3
Just a bit curious to see your opinions on it. Many people say they don't see a problem with it whilst many others are totally against it.
Personally i don't see the big deal with other people doing it, but i myself probably wouldn't.
Just a few questions about hoof oil really,
1- How often should you apply?
2- Does it really benefit your horses hooves?
3- Would it help a laminitics hooves?
After a fall that left me at the hospital, for months and months i refused to be off a lead rope. It wasn't after i was encouraged to do work on a lunge line and i got my seat back, i am able to ride confidently again.
Some days it can feel like a chore riding when my mare doesn't want to cooperate, but when she decides to behave it is definitely something i wouldn't give up.
My pony can be aggressive when it comes to her feed, especially with other horses, but otherwise she is a sweetheart. Just leave her while she's eating and just take it away when she's finished, keep in mind you've only known her for two weeks. She will probably calm down once she realises you...
