Definitely, at the last yard I had my mare at I trusted them when they said they had a regular farrier who comes evey Friday to do the horses feet, so I let him do mine and the shoes lasted about 2 weeks at a push. They were £50 but then when I got a good farrier in to re shoe her he was £65...

Thanks people, I think I've found one, I'm off to look at later this week/ next week. I know the ones up mill hill way, i volunteered at one and looked at the other one when originally looking. I'd not move because I work on Oxford street really early in the morning, but this job is just to keep...

I did do a search and found a few threads, but most were quite old. I moved my horse to London with me when I came back from uni but she an i haven't really settled well. I say London but she's on the Essex London border (chingford) I'm looking for a new yard north/north east I guess...

Racing post is pay per view, ie watched my girls winning race many a time :-) xxxx

Writing on phone and finger slipped before finishing... She's never been one who loves her face touched. I'm very careful around her head and I check her all over everyday because shes accident prone. She's always been a bit nippy I just don't want it to get worse. I'm good at problem solving...

Thanks, all very interesting. She is super sensitive when cycling so that's the sensitivity to grooming, I know how to cope with that! The horse next to her is really stressy, so actually it could e to do with that I hadn't thought about it. She's due the chiro

That sounds like sound advice there. Thanks :-) I can't be arsed to write her whole history but she's an extremely sensitive TB. I know my horse inside out! it's literally when the headcollar goes near her otherwise she's fine, never goes to bite any other time, and it's only the first time...

Have done and she's not. Back teeth, saddle, feet, general personal well being all seen to regularly.

My horse has started biting maliciously it seems. When I put on her head collar and sometimes when grooming. She's always been a little nippy but she would never mean to get me, but she's bitten me quite nastily twice in as many days and I'm at odds as to how to stop her. My mum suggested a...

Paid £65 in Essex for full set, good farrier sorted out my mares feet which were overgrown when I got her. Thoroughbred feet but his shoes would last a good solid 6 weeks, moved yards out of his area and got their farrier to do her feet, £50 a full set, her feet started falling apart after 3...

Typing on my phone pressed reply, stoopid touch screen without the ability to edit or delete ... Theo also gets called Fee My horse gets Princess, Diva, Corrie, nun, ASBO , my friends just call her cray - cray (crazy) or mental or insane... This bodes not well!!

My cat Oliver gets Oggie, Oggles, Ogifer, big man, our other cat Theo gets little one, theodopolopodus

Today, leaving the lunge line long as I walked her majesty out to the arena, she sniffed the ground stood on the line and jumped backwards, me talking rather than paying attention, poor horse :-(

Basically as the title said, need to get my little ASBO's saddle checked and just looking at who's in the area. Or if anyone can recommend me anyone? I'm in an odd place that's not quite London but not quite Essex haha Chingford :-) PM if preferred :-) xxxx

I've had my girl for not even a couple of months and I love her with all my heart and she is my reason for doing anything most of the time. From week one, she knew it was me that was looking after her, and calld to me, and came to me to catch, and comes to me for protection and I couldn't...
