    Petplan Equine - what to do?

    Ok but if I do claim, will it hike my insurance up when I renew?

    Constantly lame horse :(

    She's getting there thankfully :) had vet out a couple of times since posting, had x-rays and found the issue. X-ray showed small indication of side bone but at least now I know!

    Petplan Equine - what to do?

    I've recently had to pay a number of vet bills for sarcoids and lameness which I've covered totalling about £750 over about 4 call outs. I've got another one coming shortly and was wondering whether it would be worth claiming it and the previous invoices on the insurance with Petplan Equine...

    Bartl Tack Sold In The UK Are Fake !

    Without getting too into this - it sounds too much like a PR story to me. I'm speculating slightly, but perhaps what actually happened was Bartl (like many other companies) realised there was more money to be made in having products made in China and realised that when customers were coming back...

    Constantly lame horse :(

    Just wondering whether anyone can offer any form of advice really. My mare (5 year old ISH) is on loan and due back in about 6 weeks. However she's been lame for a while now. Initially, we thought it was a stone bruise (vet was consulted) so put her on box rest but after a couple of weeks of...

    Putting my boy up for part loan from home HELP!

    Sorry just seen your final question regarding helping with care. I think that it's expected for a part loaner to help with chores on 'their' days and pay a small financial sum to help with livery/shoes/feed costs.

    Putting my boy up for part loan from home HELP!

    I would try advertising on Preloved. Not sure how much you could charge as don't know what area you are in? May be worth having a look on Preloved to see what people around you are charging for a similar set up :)

    What type of rug?

    I thought it could be but it only has cross surcingles (not full tummy cover) so didn't think it could be a boett.

    What type of rug?

    My friend bought a second hand 'fly' rug - however when the rug turned up it was incredibly heavy and a lot thicker material than a typical fly rug - although it's still meshy - a bit like a heavy duty thick mesh fly rug, if that makes sense? Just wondered if anyone had any clue as to what...

    What class can we enter?

    After a great day helping out at a show, I've decided I'm going to put my big girl pants on and consider showing my mare next summer and perhaps hunt this winter (hopefully her blooming sarcoids will have cleared up by then) She's an ISH (more welsh cob looking to me), will be 6 next May and...

    Horse on loan- WHAT DO I DO!

    The extra income is a bonus - mine went on loan because I was moving too and trust me, the money and the extra time was a massive help! Having said that, had I not find the perfect person to have her on loan she wouldn't have gone and I would have struggled both time wise and probably...

    Deposit and/or month in advance?

    I'm used to paying month in advance for DIY livery. Some yards requested month in advance as well as deposit on top - which is fine - just wondered what everyone else did!

    Saddles- Sell privately or PX with saddler?

    I would call the saddler and see how much you would get for PX. Once you know that, have a look online and see what others in similar condition are selling for. If you sell yourself it will probably take longer than PX'ing but you may get more for it. Having said that, I've sold a saddle today...
